I can generate a ShapeResource from a ReakityKit entity's extents. Could I apply some scaling to the generated shape. Is there a way to do that? // model is a ModelResource and bounds is a BoundingBox var shape = ShapeResource.generateConvex(from: model.mesh); shape = shape.offsetBy(translation: bounds.center) // How can I scale the shape to fit within the bounds? The following API only provide the rotation and translation support. and I cannot find the scale support. offsetBy(rotation: simd_quatf = simd_quatf(ix: 0, iy: 0, iz: 0, r: 1), translation: SIMD3<Float> = SIMD3<Float>()) I can put the ShapeResource on an entity and scale the entity. But, I would like to know if it is possible to scale the ShapeResource itself without attaching it to an entity.

Hey there, since SceneView has been marked as „deprecated“ for SwiftUI, I‘m wondering which alternatives should be considered for the following situation: I have a SwiftUI app (for iOS and iPadOS) where users can view (with rotate, scale, move gestures) 3D models (USDZ) in a scene. The models will be downloaded from web backend and called via local URL paths. What I tested: I‘ve tried ARView in .nonAR mode, RealityView, however I didn‘t get the expected response -> User can rotate, scale the 3D models in a virtual space. ARView in nonAR mode still shows the object like in normal AR mode without camera stream. I tried to add Gestures to the RealityView on iOS - loading USDZ 3D models worked but the gestures didn’t). Model3D is only available for visionOS (that would be amazing to have it for iOS) I also checked QuickLook Preview however it works pretty strange via Filepicker etc, which is not the way how the user should load the 3D models in my app. Maybe I missed something, I couldn’t find anything which can help me. I‘m pretty much stucked adopting the latest and greatest frameworks/APIs in my App and taking the next steps porting my app to visionOS. Long story short 😃: Does someone have an idea what is the alternative to SceneView for USDZ 3D models? I appreciate your support!! Thanks in advance!

Hi, I'm trying to correct the lens distortion in frames provided by Enterprise API camera frame provider. The frames provided seem to have only in/extrinsics info, but not the distortion lookup table. Is there some magic setting, or function to do that (I can't seem to find anything like this)? Or is there a way to use AVCameraCalibrationData together with provider?

Hi, I'm developing a virtual camera system using ReplayKit to capture scene video by directly accessing raw video buffers. The capture mechanism works flawlessly when repeatedly starting and stopping video capture within a continuous immersive environment. However, a critical issue arises when interrupting the immersive space: Step 1: Enter immersive environment and start and stop capture videos(Multiple times with no issues) Step 2: Press the crown button to exit the immersive environment Step 3: Return to the immersive space subsequently Step 4: Attempt to start the video capture At this point, the startCapture method throws an unexpected error, disrupting the video capture workflow. This is the Xcode error that I see " [ERROR] -[RPScreenRecorder startCaptureWithHandler:completionHandler:]_block_invoke_2:500 failed to start due to error: Error Domain=com.apple.ReplayKit.RPRecordingErrorDomain Code=-5803 "Recording failed to start" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Recording failed to start}" I have tried all possible ways to stopCapture including OnDisappear and other methods and nothing seems to solve this.

So I am exporting a .usdc file from blender that already has some morph animations. The animations play well in blender but when I export I cannot seem to play them in RealityKit or RCP. Entity.availableAnimations is an empty array. Not of the child objects in the entity hierarchy has an animation library component with it. Maybe I am exporting it wrong but I tried multiple combinations but doesn't seem to work. Here are my export settings in blender The original file I purchased is an FBX file that has the animation but when I try to directly get it in RealityConverter it doesn't seem to play animations.

I am wondering, is it possible to somehow configure a 3D object to respond to the gaze of a person, like change colors of some parts of the 3D-Model where a person is looking, i.e. where a person's gaze lands on the surface of the 3D-model ? For example, if there is a 3D model of a Cool Dragon 🐉 in the physical space of a person, when seen through with the mixed reality view, of a VisionPro. Now, it would be really cool to change only the color, or make some specific parts of the dragon skin shimmer, but only in the areas where a person is looking. Is this possible ? Is it do-able with eye-tracking of VisionPro ? Any advice would be appreciated. 🤝 🤓 I am new to iOS and VisionOS development.

Hi, I'm working on a VisionOS app and would like to integrate Background Assets to download large files after the app is installed. I'm wondering what would happen if the user takes off the headset while a background asset is being downloaded. Would it continue downloading or would the download be stopped/paused? I was looking for a way to download large assets while the user is not wearing the Vision Pro, is there any other alternative? Thanks in advance.

My visionOS requires access to users' personal photos. The trigger mechanism is: when user firstly opens a FooView, a task attached to that FooView and calling let status = PHPhotoLibrary.authorizationStatus(for: .readWrite), if the status is .notDetermined, then calling PHPhotoLibrary.requestAuthorization(for: .readWrite, handler: authCompletionHandler) to let visionOS pop out a window to request Photo access. However, the app crashes every time when user selects Limited Access and the system try to pop out a photo library picker. And btw, I have set Prevent limited photos access alert to Yes, but it shouldn't affect the behavior here I guess. There was a debugger message here: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'Presentations are not permitted within volumetric window scenes.' However, the window this view belongs to is a .plain style window (though there were 3D object appearing in the other view of same windowgroup) This is my code snippet if this helps: checkAndUpdatePhotoAuthorization is just a wrapper of PHPhotoLibrary.authorizationStatus(for: .readWrite) private func checkAndUpdatePhotoAuthorization() -> PHAuthorizationStatus { let currentStatus = PHPhotoLibrary.authorizationStatus(for: .readWrite) switch currentStatus { case .authorized: print("Photo library access authorized.") isPhotoGalleryAuthorized = true isPhotoGalleryLimited = false isPhotoGalleryAccessRestricted = false isPhotoGalleryDetermined = true case .limited: print("Photo library access limited.") isPhotoGalleryLimited = true isPhotoGalleryAuthorized = false isPhotoGalleryAccessRestricted = false isPhotoGalleryDetermined = true case .notDetermined: isPhotoGalleryDetermined = false print("Photo library access not determined.") case .denied: print("Photo library access denied.") isPhotoGalleryAuthorized = false isPhotoGalleryLimited = false isPhotoGalleryAccessRestricted = false showSettingsAlert = true isPhotoGalleryDetermined = true case .restricted: print("Photo library access restricted.") isPhotoGalleryAuthorized = false isPhotoGalleryLimited = false isPhotoGalleryAccessRestricted = true showPhotoAuthExplainationAlert = true isPhotoGalleryDetermined = true @unknown default: print("Photo library Unknown authorization status.") isPhotoGalleryAuthorized = false isPhotoGalleryLimited = false isPhotoGalleryAccessRestricted = false isPhotoGalleryDetermined = true } return currentStatus } And then FooView attaches task to fire up checkAndUpdatePhotoAuthorization() var body: some View { EmptyView() } .task { try? await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(1.0)) let status = self.checkAndUpdatePhotoAuthorization() if status == .notDetermined { DispatchQueue.main.async { PHPhotoLibrary.requestAuthorization(for: .readWrite, handler: authCompletionHandler) } } Another thing worth to mention is that SOMETIMES it won't crash when running on a debug build. But it crashes when it comes to TF. Any other idea? Big thanks in advance XCode version: 16.2 beta 3 VisionOS version: 2.2

I have a huge sphere where the camera stays inside the sphere and turn on front face culling on my ShaderGraphMaterial applied on that sphere, so that I can place other 3D stuff inside. However when it comes to attachment, the object occlusion never works as I am expecting. Specifically my attachments are occluded by my sphere (some are not so the behavior is not deterministic. Then I suspect it was the issue of depth testing so I started using ModelSortGroup to reorder the rending sequence. However it doesn't work. As I was searching through the internet, this post's comments shows that ModelSortGroup simply doesn't work on attachments. So I wonder how should I tackle this issue now? To let my attachments appear inside my sphere. OS/Sys: VisionOS 2.3/XCode 16.3

Can an app made with the Room Plan API be used on iPhones without LIDAR? If so, how much accuracy would be lost compared to iPhones with LIDAR? If not, is there an API similar to RoomPlan that works on iPhones without LiDAR?

Hello everyone I would like to create my own spatial video on my Apple Vision Pro. According to all the documentation from Apple, this requires two camera angles that enhance the spatial perception. I have purchased the Enterprise license with main camera access for this purpose. However, this only gives me access to the left main camera of the glasses. Is there a way to access the right camera as well? Or is the one camera image enough to create a spatial video by splitting the image, for example? I am open to any help and ideas. My goal is to create the video with the cameras on the glasses, not externally.

I am currently developing an app for visionOS and have encountered an issue involving a component and system that moves an entity up and down within a specific Y-axis range. The system works as expected until I introduce sound playback using AVAudioPlayer. Whenever I use AVAudioPlayer to play sound, the entity exhibits unexpected behaviors, such as freezing or becoming unresponsive. The freezing of the entity's movement is particularly noticeable when playing the audio for the first time. After that, it becomes less noticeable, but you can still feel it, especially when the audio is played in quick succession. Also, the issue is more noticable on real device than the simulator // // IssueApp.swift // Issue // // Created by Zhendong Chen on 2/1/25. // import SwiftUI @main struct IssueApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } .windowStyle(.volumetric) } } // // ContentView.swift // Issue // // Created by Zhendong Chen on 2/1/25. // import SwiftUI import RealityKit import RealityKitContent struct ContentView: View { @State var enlarge = false var body: some View { RealityView { content, attachments in // Add the initial RealityKit content if let scene = try? await Entity(named: "Scene", in: realityKitContentBundle) { if let sphere = scene.findEntity(named: "Sphere") { sphere.components.set(UpAndDownComponent(speed: 0.03, minY: -0.05, maxY: 0.05)) } if let button = attachments.entity(for: "Button") { button.position.y -= 0.3 scene.addChild(button) } content.add(scene) } } attachments: { Attachment(id: "Button") { VStack { Button { SoundManager.instance.playSound(filePath: "apple_en") } label: { Text("Play audio") } .animation(.none, value: 0) .fontWeight(.semibold) } .padding() .glassBackgroundEffect() } } .onAppear { UpAndDownSystem.registerSystem() } } } // // SoundManager.swift // LinguaBubble // // Created by Zhendong Chen on 1/14/25. // import Foundation import AVFoundation class SoundManager { static let instance = SoundManager() private var audioPlayer: AVAudioPlayer? func playSound(filePath: String) { guard let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: filePath, withExtension: ".mp3") else { return } do { audioPlayer = try AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: url) audioPlayer?.play() } catch let error { print("Error playing sound. \(error.localizedDescription)") } } } // // UpAndDownComponent+System.swift // Issue // // Created by Zhendong Chen on 2/1/25. // import RealityKit struct UpAndDownComponent: Component { var speed: Float var axis: SIMD3<Float> var minY: Float var maxY: Float var direction: Float = 1.0 // 1 for up, -1 for down var initialY: Float? init(speed: Float = 1.0, axis: SIMD3<Float> = [0, 1, 0], minY: Float = 0.0, maxY: Float = 1.0) { self.speed = speed self.axis = axis self.minY = minY self.maxY = maxY } } struct UpAndDownSystem: System { static let query = EntityQuery(where: .has(UpAndDownComponent.self)) init(scene: RealityKit.Scene) {} func update(context: SceneUpdateContext) { let deltaTime = Float(context.deltaTime) // Time between frames for entity in context.entities(matching: Self.query, updatingSystemWhen: .rendering) { guard var component: UpAndDownComponent = entity.components[UpAndDownComponent.self] else { continue } // Ensure we have the initial Y value set if component.initialY == nil { component.initialY = entity.transform.translation.y } // Calculate the current position let currentY = entity.transform.translation.y // Move the entity up or down let newY = currentY + (component.speed * component.direction * deltaTime) // If the entity moves out of the allowed range, reverse the direction if newY >= component.initialY! + component.maxY { component.direction = -1.0 // Move down } else if newY <= component.initialY! + component.minY { component.direction = 1.0 // Move up } // Apply the new position entity.transform.translation = SIMD3<Float>(entity.transform.translation.x, newY, entity.transform.translation.z) // Update the component with the new direction entity.components[UpAndDownComponent.self] = component } } } Could someone help me with this?

In an earlier beta, BillboardComponent had rotationAxis and upDirection properties which allowed more fine-grained control of how an entity rotates towards the camera. Currently, it is only possible to orient the z axis of the entity. Looking at the robot in the documentation, the rotation of its z axis causes its feet to lift off the ground. Before, it was possible to restrain the rotation to one axis (y, for example) so that the robot's feet stayed on the ground with billboard.upDirection = [0, 1, 0] billboard.rotationAxis = [0, 1, 0] Is there an alternative way to achieve this? Are these properties (or similar) coming back?

Hi there. Thanks to amazing help from you guys, I've managed to code a 360 image carousel, where the user can browse 360 images located inside the project package. Is there a way to access the filesystem on AVP outside the app? I know about the FileManager, and I can get access to the .documentsDirectory, but how do I access documents folder from the "Files" app on the AVP? My goal is to read images from a hardcoded folderlocation on the AVP, such that the user never will have to select the images themselves. I know this may not be the "right" way to do this. The app is supposed to be "foolproof" with a minimum of userinteraction. The only way to change the images should be to change the contents of the hardcoded imagefolder. I hope this makes sense =) Thanks in advance! Regards, Kim

When I've made an animated UDSZ, at what framerate will the animation be rendered in QuickLook? Is it the same across all devices? (iPhone, Apple Vision Pro, etc.) and viewing environments? (QuickLook, inside an ARView, etc.) Suppose I export my file at 30fps and the device draws at 60fps, does the device interpolate between frames automatically, animate at a lower frame rate, or play it at twice the speed? What if it were 24fps? My primary concern with understanding frame rates is a bit of trouble I've had making perfectly looping animations. There always seems to be the slightest stutter between iterations. Thanks in advance for any insights you're able to provide!

Hello, I'm trying to view the components of an Entity I'm creating in RealityKit by reading from a USDZ file. I have the following code snippet in my app. if let appleEntity = try? Entity.loadModel(named: "apple_tile") { let c = appleEntity.components for comp in c { // <- compiler error here print(comp) } } The compiler error I'm receiving says "For-in loop requires 'Entity.ComponentSet' to conform to 'Sequence'". However, I thought this was the case, according to the documentation for Entity.ComponentSet? Curious if anyone else has had this problem.

My VisionOS App (Travel Immersive) has two interface windows: a main 2D interface window and a 3D Earth window. If the user first closes the main interface window and then the Earth window, clicking the app icon again will only launch the Earth window while failing to display the main interface window. However, if the user closes the Earth window first and then the main interface window, the app restarts normally‌. Below is the code of import SwiftUI @main struct Travel_ImmersiveApp: App { @StateObject private var appModel = AppModel() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup(id: "MainWindow") { ContentView() .environmentObject(appModel) .onDisappear { appModel.closeEarthWindow = true } } .windowStyle(.automatic) .defaultSize(width: 1280, height: 825) WindowGroup(id: "Earth") { if !appModel.closeEarthWindow { Globe3DView() .environmentObject(appModel) .onDisappear { appModel.isGlobeWindowOpen = false } } else { EmptyView() // 关闭时渲染空视图 } } .windowStyle(.volumetric) .defaultSize(width: 0.8, height: 0.8, depth: 0.8, in: .meters) ImmersiveSpace(id: "ImmersiveView") { ImmersiveView() .environmentObject(appModel) } } }

Hi, I created an app using iOS Object Capture API which works only on Lidar enabled phones. It's a limitation of the Api provided by apple itself. I Submitted an app for Review , but It is getting rejected (Twice) saying it doesnt work on non pro models. Even though I explained that capturing Needs Lidar and supported only in PRO models, It still gets rejected after testing in Non Pro models. is there a way out?

I have discovered that RemoteImmersiveSpace is limited to utilizing the structure of the CompositorContent protocol, precluding direct invocation of RealityView. Consequently, I am interested in understanding the appropriate method for integrating CompositorContent within RemoteImmersiveSpace. Thanks.
