TableTopKit TL;DR

Cristian (without h) and Roxana Nagy are building a game app for Vision Pro using TableTopKit. I had a chance to play around with a few people on a spatial call, including Cristian last week.

TabletopKit was introduced this year at WWDC24 in a "lightweight" package of one session accompanied by a sample code project and the relative documentation.

You can read about Cristian's discoveries, observations and some thoughts on TableTopKit on his blog. He includes some "radars" that have been sent to Apple.

Preorder BlackMagic's $30K Apple Immersive Video Camera

Many of us have been speculating what camera Apple has been using for their immersive movies. Some of my professional photographers and movie maker friends recognized that they were made by BlackMagic. Apple revealed the camera at WWDC 24. Now you can preorder the BlackMagic URSA Cine Immersive cameras and combine it with DaVinci Resolve to create your own immersive videos, shooting in 8K at 90 fps.

Apple Immersive Adventure - Ice Dive

Apple dropped Episode 3: Ice Dive, in its Adventure series. These are the in-your-face experiences that show off the amazing spatial audio & video technology in the Vision Pro. In episode 1, you join a high-wire walker in the fiords, if you're not afraid of heights. That's part of the demo you'll see in the Apple Store Vision Pro demo. The second takes place on Paris roof tops as you join some parkour adventurers. Again some intense heights on display.

This time we join an ice diver in Iceland as he free-dives in an attempt to break the world record with a dive 180+ meters long. You can hold your breath for 3 minutes, right?

Xcode 26 Persona now uses Gaussian Splats for better rendering. One Week with Vision Pro M5 It’s been a week since I got my new Vision Pro M5 — the second configuration from Apple — and I’m ready to share my impressions. TL;DR: It’s noticeably sharper and faster than the original Vision Pro. It’s a great choice for first-time Vision Pro buyers, or for developers and those working with Apple Intelligence, which is ~50% faster, and 3rd-party apps are now up to 2x faster. The Vision Pro M5 is an...
