  • Testing out Mac ultra wide display mirror on Apple Vision Pro

    evolvingtechevolvingtech
    I have been using this feature since the first day since the visionOS 2.2 beta became available. I have to say it works great on the MacBook Pro (M3 Max). A feature not mentioned in this article is that the visual sharpness of text in the Virtual Mac Display is considerably improved (compared to the earlier version of the Mac Virtual Display).

    As this is in beta, not yet everything is fully in place. The background environments, when enabled, become fully opaque; so you can't see your physical keyboard as you are typing. So for now, I allow the pass-through.

    For the future, I do hope that Apple will further integrate the AVP interface with the virtual desktop. I found myself wanting to interact with the virtual Mac desktop and apps as if they were running from the AVP using hand gestures instead rather than being limited to mouse and trackpad. It would be very compelling and intuitive to have a user experience where the desktop and Vision Pro seamlessly functions as a unified environment. 

    In any case, when traveling with the MBP I would be hard pressed not to take the AVP.

  • Apple Studio Display only starts at $1599, and can easily climb to $2458

    For what it's worth, I did come across a recent review of a tilt-adjustable stand that also accommodates VESA mounts and permits screen rotation to either landscape or portrait orientation in addition to position/tilting. Among other sizes, it is listed to support 100 x 100mm, which is what specified for the Studio Display VESA option.

    This may be worth investigating. As I am looking at this, one further item is worth noting... the unit is designed for monitors weighing between 20 - 42 pounds and the Studio Display (VESA option) is 12.1 pounds. If I find other options that address this, I'll add a posting.

  • So far, Apple is struggling to market Apple Vision Pro

    evolvingtechevolvingtech
    In introducing the AVP, Apple accomplished two things:
    1. They shifted the paradigm for spatial computing and immersive user experiences. The the rest of the industry will be obliged to follow.
    2. The polished experience they created (both in terms of design and the mix of technology) is hard to recreate. Their rivals will struggle to match Apple for over the next couple of years.

  • Apple AR, VR operating system now called 'xrOS'

    evolvingtechevolvingtech
    One possible reason Apple may be opting to use xrOS is to avoid confusion with ROS - the well established open source framework for Robotics.

  • Lufthansa AirTags ban based on incredibly bad regulation interpretation

    evolvingtechevolvingtech
    What Lufthansa is missing is the fact that a lot of checked bags do not originate on Lufthansa. Other Star Alliance members (like United, Air Canada, etc.) have passengers connecting to Lufthansa flights around the world. Does Lufthansa expect their Alliance members to police this for them?
