I am trying to verify my understanding of adding a HoverEffectComponent on entities inside a scene in RealityViews. Inside RealityComposer Pro, I have added the required Input Target and Collision components to one entity inside a node with multiple siblings, and left any options as defaults. They appear to create appropriately sized bounding boxes etc for these objects. In my RealityView I programmatically add the HoverEffectComponents to the entities as I don't see them in RCP. On device, this appears to "work" in the sense that when I gaze at the entity, it lights up - but so does every other entity in the scene - even those without Input Target and Collision components attached. Because the documentation on the components is sparse I am unsure if this is behavior as designed (e.g. all entities in that node are activated) or a bug or something in between. Has anyone encountered this and is there an appropriate way of setting these relationships up? Thanks

I start a project for iPad/iPhone and I set SwiftUI - RealityKit and I can’t get the build to compile. I do nothing but create a project and hit run. So I am wondering if it’s even possible to run RealityKit on just an iPad anymore. I then tried to use Reality composer to import a basic cylinder shape to my project and that wouldn’t run either. So I am wondering how to get a 3D model into my iPad app so that the user can interact with it. Thanks for any help

I am developing an immersive application featured with hands interacting my virtual objects. When my hand passes through the object, the rendered color of my hand is like blending hand color with object's color together, both semi transparent. I wonder if it is possible to make my hand be always "opaque", or say the alpha value of rendered hand (coz it's VST) is always 1, but the object's alpha value could be varied in terms of whether it is interacting with hand. (I was thinking this kind of feature might be supported by a specific component (just like HoverEffectComponent), but I didn't find that out)

Environment Apple Silicon M1 Pro macOS 14.4 Xcode 15.3 (15E204a) visionOS simulator 1.1 Step Create a new visionOS app project and compile it through xcodebuild: xcodebuild -destination "generic/platform=visionOS" It fails on RealityAssetsCompile with log : error: Failed to find newest available Simulator runtime But if I open the Xcode IDE and start building, it works fine. This error only occurs in xcodebuild. More I noticed that in xcrun simctl list the vision pro simulator is in unavailable state: -- visionOS 1.1 -- Apple Vision Pro (6FB1310A-393E-4E82-9F7E-7F6D0548D136) (Booted) (unavailable, device type profile not found) And i can't find the vision pro device type in xcrun simctl list devicetypes, does it matter? I have tried to completely reinstall Xcode and simulator runtime, but still the same error.

As the title says. While I can find the video capture on the desktop but I can not find where it is storing the screenshots even when it says Screenshot's succeeded. I am referencing this: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/visionos/capturing-screenshots-and-video-from-your-apple-vision-pro-for-2d-viewing

I'm taking my iOS/iPadOS app and converting it so it runs on visionOS. I’m trying to compile my app, build it, for both visionOS and iOS. When I try to build for an iPhone and iPad simulator, I get the following error:  Building for 'iphonesimulator', but realitytool only supports [xros, xrsimulator] I’m thinking I might need to do a # if conditional compilation statement for visionOS so iOS doesn’t try to build lines of code but I can’t for this particular error find out for which file or code I need to do the conditional compilation. Anyone know how to get rid of this error? 

Hi everyone, I'm developing a visionOS app using SwiftUI and RealityKit. I'm facing a challenge with accessing the children of a USDZ model. Scenario: I can successfully load and display a USDZ model in my RealityView. When I import the model into Reality Composer Pro, I can access and manipulate its individual parts (children) using the scene hierarchy. However, if I directly load the USDZ model from the Navigation tab in my project, I cannot seem to access the children programmatically. Question: Is there a way to access and manipulate the children of a USDZ model loaded directly from the Navigation tab in SwiftUI for visionOS? Additional Information: I've explored using Entity(named: "childName", in: realityKitContentBundle), but this only works for the main entity. I'm open to alternative approaches if directly accessing children isn't feasible. Thanks in advance for any insights or suggestions! Best, Siddharth [Edited by Moderator]

I've created an app for visionOS that uses a custom package that includes RealityKitContent as well (as a sub-package). I now want to turn this app into a multi-platform app that also supports iOS. When I try to compile the app for this platform, I get this error message: Building for 'iphoneos', but realitytool only supports [xros, xrsimulator] Thus, I want to exclude the RealityKitContent from my package for iOS, but I don't really know how. The Apple docs are pretty complicated, and ChatGPT did only give me solutions that did not work at all. I also tried to post this on the Swift forum, but no-one could help me there either - so I am trying my luck here. Here is my Package.swift file: // swift-tools-version: 5.10 import PackageDescription let package = Package( name: "Overlays", platforms: [ .iOS(.v17), .visionOS(.v1) ], products: [ .library( name: "Overlays", targets: ["Overlays"]), ], dependencies: [ .package( path: "../BackendServices" ), .package( path: "../MeteorDDP" ), .package( path: "Packages/OverlaysRealityKitContent" ), ], targets: [ .target( name: "Overlays", dependencies: ["BackendServices", "MeteorDDP", "OverlaysRealityKitContent"] ), .testTarget( name: "OverlaysTests", dependencies: ["Overlays"]), ] ) Based on a recommendation in the Swift forum, I also tried this: dependencies: [ ... .package( name: "OverlaysRealityKitContent", path: "Packages/OverlaysRealityKitContent" ), ], targets: [ .target( name: "Overlays", dependencies: [ "BackendServices", "MeteorDDP", .product(name: "OverlaysRealityKitContent", package: "OverlaysRealityKitContent", condition: .when(platforms: [.visionOS])) ] ), ... ] but this won't work either. The problem seems to be that the package is listed under dependencies, which makes the realitytool kick in. Is there a way to avoid this? I definitely need the RealityKitContent package being part of the Overlay package, since the latter depends on the content (on visionOS). And I would not want to split the package up in two parts (one for iOS and one for visionOS), if possible.

Developing a prototype Vision Pro app and would like to render a 3D scene made from Reality Composer Pro on an image anchor in a RealityView. But I have no luck so far to make it work and need some guidance to move on. I got the image file stored in the assets like below: And from below is the source codes: import SwiftUI import RealityKit import RealityKitContent struct AnchorView: View { @State var imageEntity: Entity = { let anchorEntity = AnchorEntity(.image(group: "AR Resources", name: "reanchor")) return anchorEntity }() var body: some View { RealityView { content in do { // Add the initial RealityKit content if let scene = try? await Entity(named: "Scene", in: realityKitContentBundle) { imageEntity.addChild(scene) content.add(imageEntity) } } catch { print("Error occurs when adding reality view content: \(error)") } } } }

I was reading through cube-image node docs and it talked about loading data from a cubemap file in ktx format. It wasn’t clear if that was only for the original KTX format, and if that node was also able to take advantage of the KTX2 format? Is this shader node only relevant for files in the original (v1) KTX format?

I created an app for visionOS, using Reality Composer Pro. Now I want to turn this app into a multi-platform app for iOS as well. RCP files are not supported on iOS, however. So I tried to use the "old" Reality Composer instead, but that doesn't seem to work either. Xcode 15 does not include it anymore, and I read online that files created with Xcode 14's Reality Composer cannot be included in Xcode 15 files. Also, Xcode 14 does not run on my M3 Mac with Sonoma. That's a bummer. What is the recommended way to include 3D content in apps that support visionOS AND iOS?! (I also read that a solution might be using USDZ for both. But how would that workflow look like? Are there samples out there that support both platforms? Please note that I want to setup the anchors myself, using code. I just need the composing tool to the create 3D content that will be placed on these anchors.)

Hi, Is there a way to access the shader graph nodes in Xcode to change the values during runtime such as changing values based on user inputs? Or is this not possible yet? Thanks! Myoung

I made an animation in Blender using geometry nodes that I exported to USDC file (then I used Reality Converter to convert to USDZ) and I can see the animation when viewing from the finder but does not play after importing to RCP. Any idea how I can play the animation? Or can the animation be accessed through Xcode? Thanks!

Hey guys! I have question for my project. I want my 3D character with an PBR Shader to only receive IBL from my HDRI map and not receive any lighting from the surrounding environment when viewing on Apple Vision Pro. Any tips? Thank you in advance!

We deliver an SDK that enables rich spatial computing experiences. We want to enable our customers to develop apps using Swift or RealityComposer Pro. Composer allows the creation of custom components from the add components button in the inspector panel. These source files are dropped into the RealityComposer package and directory. We would like to be able to have our customers import our SDK components into their applications RealityComposer package and have our components be visible to be applied by our customer into their scene compositions. How can we achieve this? We believe this will lead to a risk ecosystem components extensions for RealityComposer Pro.

I saw onnoffitacation in the Behavior configuration of Reality Composer pro, which asked me to enter the Nofficatition name, that is to say, this requires swift in Xcode to send a message. There is a message name in the message, so I hope you can write an list for me how to use Swift in Xcode to send a message containing the message name.

With WWDC 24, I was excited to see that apple is bringing their APIs from Vision OS to iOS. I tried using the Object Anchoring component in Reality Composer Pro. Which this works with a Vision Pro, it looks like the entity will spawn at origin if we run the same on iOS and the object anchoring doesn't seem to work. Is this intended? Below is how I'm doing this. I added an Anchoring component and added the .referenceObject file I trained using CreateML. This is the code I'm using to load this scene in. // GrootView.swift // ARTest-New // // Created by Sravan Karuturi on 6/10/24. // import SwiftUI import RealityKit import Box struct GrootView: View { @StateObject private var grootVM = GrootViewModel() @State private var ent: Entity? = nil @State var anchor: Entity? = nil @State var wallAnchor: Entity? = nil @State var floorAnchor: Entity? = nil var body: some View { RealityView{ content in #if os(iOS) await content.setupWorldTracking() content.camera = .worldTracking #endif ent = try? await Entity(named: "Box", in: boxBundle) print(ent?.children) anchor = ent?.findEntity(named: "ObjectAnchor") wallAnchor = ent?.findEntity(named: "WallAnchor") floorAnchor = ent?.findEntity(named: "FloorAnchor") let updateSum = content.subscribe(to: SceneEvents.Update.self){ event in if let anc = anchor, anc.isAnchored { print("Found Item") } if let anc = floorAnchor, anc.isAnchored { print("Found Floor") } if let anc = wallAnchor, anc.isAnchored { print("Wall Anchor") } } content.add(ent!) } } } #Preview { GrootView() } While, something similar seems to work on visionOS, the same doesn't seem to work with iOS. When I run this app, we see all the children and the Found Item is printed constantly even when we don't have the item in the scene. Not really sure if this is just not supported yet on iOS ( I really hope that's not the case ) or if I messed up something somehow

Hey, In the "Explore object tracking for visionOS" session we explore how a Globe can be tracked, and objects can be anchored to various positions. My question is if the physical Globe is rotated, will the anchored objects also respond to this in real-time? I would like to overlap a virtual map on top of a physical globe, so when the user rotates the physical globe, the virtual map also seamlessly responds. Is this possible using Object Tracking? Thanks

I've been trying to get the drag gesture up and running so I can move my 3D model around in my immersive space, but for some reason I am not able to move it around. The model shows up in my visionOS 1.0 Simulator, but I can't seem to get it to move around. Would love some help with this and some resources too that would be helpful. Here's a snippet of my Reality View code import SwiftUI import RealityKit import RealityKitContent struct GearRealityView: View { static var modelEntity = Entity() var body: some View { RealityView { content in if let model = try? await Entity(named: "LandingGear", in: realityKitContentBundle) { GearRealityView.modelEntity = model content.add(model) } }.gesture( DragGesture() .targetedToEntity(GearRealityView.modelEntity) .onChanged({ value in GearRealityView.modelEntity.position = value.convert(value.location3D, from: .local, to: GearRealityView.modelEntity.parent!) }) ) } }

I am developing an application that has a 3D model, developed on blender in parts and then combined and pushed to Reality Composer Pro. I would like to be able to select parts of the model such as the right arm, and when that's done, a description window to open up with more information. How do I go about selecting a part of my model?
