What comes to our minds when we think of entertainment? Binge-watching a TV show on Netflix? Watching a game of football? Or going to the theatres to watch a movie? Our world has redefined entertainment over the last decade with access to the internet and technology. Nowadays, we think of entertainment as watching Netflix on the TV or scrolling through Instagram on a phone. Beyond the 2D screens, we have discovered virtual and augmented reality which enthralls the players into a completely isolated (VR) or partially isolated environment (AR). However, despite all these new advancements, there is one new product which has the potential to change the future of entertainment, productivity, and all of technology. The Apple Vision Pro is a spatial computer that integrates the idea of mixed reality where users feel an immersive and cinematic experience with a single pair of headsets. In this article we will look at its key features and what it has to offer in the world of entertainment.

Cinema

Its release has sparked excitement across the industry because its features stand out from any normal pair of headsets. One of the most discussed ideas around the Apple Vision Pro is the cinematic and surreal experience you gain when watching your favorite shows. You can feel your presence in everything you watch as if your imaginations have come to life. One of its key features is its micro OLED technology, which enables each eye to view more pixels than a 4K TV! The visual appearance has a vast range of details from vibrant colors to stunning contrasts all of which enhance the user experience. The expandable screen and different modes create an enjoyable experience especially when watching an action-packed or horror movie. In addition to the display, the spatial audio system eliminates the need to go to a physical movie theatre by developing the feel of sound coming from all directions. The sound system makes users feel engaged with the story and characters, unlike normal sound systems.

Gaming

In terms of gaming, the Apple Vision Pro redefines interactivity for players. Traditional games or virtual reality headsets limit players to controlling their movement with a console however that is not the case with this device. Instead, our finger movement controls the surroundings thus, making it more immersive and engaging for the player. Until now, games and technology have only allowed us to maintain the players in the game however these features allow us to participate and be the player ourselves. Such games aren’t limited to expert console players though they include people who play simple app store games too. For instance, Apple Arcade has created “Game Room,” which enables multiplayer games such as Chess, Sea Battles, or Hearts to be played in your environment. Moreover, the spatial audio system makes each game feel adventurous and accurate. It is as if you can be the superhero you once dreamed of being with all the adventures and missions integrated into one headset.

What is Next?

Remember, the Apple Vision Pro has just initiated the era of virtual interaction in entertainment. As youth, we have more coming our way as technology and software develop even further. In the future, the digital and physical worlds will be united in ways we couldn’t have imagined before. Imagine being able to visit countries through virtual tours, or being able to experience smell in a video game! The possibilities are limitless in what we will be able to do with just a few hand gestures or eye movements. The main takeaway is that this technology has a major role to play in shaping our future in entertainment.
