This could actually be quite beneficial for Meta, Microsoft, and Magic Leap. The reveal that Apple will be using Unity to bring 3D applications and games to Vision Pro was exciting. Their partnership with Unity will get them there quickly. Apple will use Unity to bring 3D applications and games to Vision Pro.

Moreover, Apple is also pushing its Vision Pro SDK to support its first-party and Unity-supported third-party immersive applications, again in a bid to create a sophisticated piece of hardware with a system-selling lineup of integrated applications and hardware. Already, Apple iPhone and iPad products come with many AR features.

Theys so propose the so-called “Mediated Reality Continuum” VR (Virtual Reality) replaces the real world with a simulated experience (virtual world). For instance, if you know that your sofa is the only red object in the room, you can use color information and select only the pixels that are red. So, how can you show it?
