I want to display a model image in the windowGroup window. This image is not unique. To display the model image, how should I convert it into an image

As in the title: openImmersiveSpace works as expected. The ImmersiveSpace in the ID opens normally but the function never resolves a Result. Here is a workaround I used to make user it was on the UI thread and scenePhase was active: ` @MainActor func openSpaceWithStateCheck() async { if scenePhase == .active { Task { switch await openImmersiveSpace(id: "RoomCaptureInteraction") { case .opened: isCapturingImagery = true break case .error: print("!! An error occurred when trying to open the immersive space captureRoomImagery") case .userCancelled: print("!! The user declined opening immersive space captureRoomImagery") @unknown default: print("!! unknown default result of opening space") break } } } else { print("Scene not active, deferring immersive space opening") } } I'm on visionOS 2.4 and SDK 2.2. I have tried uninstalling the app and rebuilding. Tried simply opening an empty ImmersiveSpace. The consistency of the ImmersiveSpace opening at least means I can work around it. Even dismissImmersiveSpace works normally and closes the immersive space. But a workaround seems hamfisted.

How can I guide users to set their preferred language in visionOS? At this point, the behavior seems to be different from that of iOS.

I’m working on an iOS app that needs to measure the area of planes or surfaces, like the length and width of objects, just like the Apple Measure app does. I’ve been exploring ARKit, but I’m curious if there are any APIs or techniques that can help automate the process of detecting and measuring planes. Specifically, I’m looking for a way to automatically detect and measure planes (e.g., from a top-down view). For example: Measuring a box width and length. I have attached a screenshot and a video of the Apple Measure App doing it. Does Apple provide any tools or APIs for this, or are there any best practices I should know about? I’d love to hear from anyone who’s tackled something similar. Video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BxM7fIbFxsCsYwY7w8ZxIeq_4WTGkkwA/view?usp=drive_link

I am using HelloPhotogrammetry in Xcode I can make one model with something like HelloPhotogrammetry.main([path_to_folder_of images, path_to_output/model.usdz, "-d", "medium", "-o", "unordered", "-f", "high" ]) But how would I request several models simultaneously? I only want to vary the detail. [ ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_medium.usdz", detail: .medium), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_full.usdz", detail: .full), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_raw.usdz", detail: .raw ]

Hello everyone, I've been trying for a few weeks now to convert a sequential series of meshes into a stop-motion animation in USDZ format. In Unreal Engine, I’ve already figured out how to transform the sequential series of individual meshes into a smooth animation using the node system and arrays. Unfortunately, the node system cannot be exported as a usdz animation logic in either Unreal or Blender. Because of this, I have tried several other methods to incorporate the animation logic. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: I attempted to create the animation in Blender with Render-/Viewports and mapping it to keyframes. However, in my experience, Viewports are not supported in the conversion. I tried aligning the vertices of individual objects and merging the frames using the Shrinkwrap modifier in Blender, then setting up a morph animation with keyframes. However, because the individual meshes are too different, this results in artifacts, and manually editing each mesh is too difficult for me to handle. I placed all individual meshes at the same position and animated them sequentially by scaling them from 0 to 100 in keyframes (Frame 1 is visible for 10 frames, then scales down at frame 11, while Frame 2 becomes visible at frame 11, and so on). I also adjusted the keyframes so that the scaling happens in a "constant" manner rather than the default Bezier or linear interpolation. I then converted this animation to .abc, and the result initially looked good. However, some information is lost when converting it with OpenUSD. The animation does not maintain its intended jump-like behavior in USDZ format, and instead, the scaling of individual files is visible in the animation. I tried using a Blender add-on (StepMotion), which allows the animation to be exported as .abc, but it can only be read in Blender or Unreal. Even in the preview, the animation is not displayed correctly, so converting the animation logic does not work either. 
Unfortunately, I have no alternative way to create the animation, as the individual frames have been provided to me as meshes. So far, I haven’t found a way to implement this successfully. I would be very grateful for any tips or ideas, as I am running out of options on how to make this work. Thanks in advance!

Hello, I am experimenting with Unity to develop a mixed reality (MR) application for visionOS. I would like to understand the best approach for structuring my project: Should I build the entire experience in Unity (both Windows and Volumes)? Or is it better to create only certain elements (e.g., Volumes) in Unity while managing Windows separately in Xcode? Also, how well do interactions (e.g pinch, grab…) created in Unity integrate with Xcode? If I use the PolySpatial plugin, does that allow me to manage all interactions entirely within Unity, or would I still need to handle/integrate part of it in Xcode? What's worked best for you? Please let me know if you have any recommendations, Thanks!

Hi, On visionOS to manage entity rotation we can rely on RotateGesture3D. We can even with the constrainedToAxis parameter authorize only rotation on an x, y or z axis or even make combinations. What I want to know is if it is possible to constrain the rotation on axis automatically. Let me explain, the functionality that I would like to implement is to constrain the rotation on an axis only once the user has started his gesture. The initial gesture the user makes should let us know which axis they want to rotate on. This would be equivalent to activating a constraint automatically on one of the axes, as if we were defining the gesture on one of the axes. RotateGesture3D(constrainedToAxis: .x) RotateGesture3D(constrainedToAxis: .y) RotateGesture3D(constrainedToAxis: .z) Is it possible to do this? If so, what would be the best way to do it? A code example would be greatly appreciated. Regards Tof

Description： I'm developing a travel/panorama viewing app for visionOS that allows users to view 360° panoramic images in an immersive space. When users enter panorama viewing mode, I want to provide a fully immersive experience where the main interface window and Earth 3D globe window are hidden. I've implemented the app following Apple's documentation on Creating Fully Immersive Experiences, but when users enter the immersive space, both the main window and the Earth 3D window remain visible, diminishing the immersive experience. Implementation Details： My app has three main components: A main content window showing panorama thumbnails A 3D globe window (volumetric) showing locations An immersive space for viewing 360° panoramas I'm using .immersionStyle(selection: $panoImageView, in: .full) to create a fully immersive experience, but other windows remain visible. Relevant Code： @main struct Travel_ImmersiveApp: App { @StateObject private var appModel = AppModel() @State private var panoImageView: ImmersionStyle = .full var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() .environmentObject(appModel) } .windowStyle(.automatic) .defaultSize(width: 1280, height: 825) WindowGroup(id: "Earth") { Globe3DView() .environmentObject(appModel) .onAppear { appModel.isGlobeWindowOpen = true appModel.globeWindowOpen = true } .onDisappear { if !appModel.shouldCloseApp { appModel.handleGlobeWindowClose() } } } .windowStyle(.volumetric) .defaultSize(width: 0.8, height: 0.8, depth: 0.8, in: .meters) .windowResizability(.contentSize) ImmersiveSpace(id: "ImmersiveView") { ImmersiveView() .environmentObject(appModel) } .immersionStyle(selection: $panoImageView, in: .full) } } Opening the Immersive Space： func getPanoImageAndOpenImmersiveSpace() async { appModel.clearMemoryCache() do { let canView = appModel.canViewImage(image) if canView { let downloadedImage = try await appModel.getPanoramaImage(for: image) { progress in Task { @MainActor in cardState = .loading(progress: progress) } } await MainActor.run { appModel.updateCurrentImage(image, panoramaImage: downloadedImage) } if !appModel.immersiveSpaceOpened { try await openImmersiveSpace(id: "ImmersiveView") await MainActor.run { appModel.immersiveSpaceOpened = true cardState = .normal } } else { await MainActor.run { appModel.updateImmersiveView = true cardState = .normal } } } else { await MainActor.run { appModel.errorMessage = "You do not have permission to view this image." cardState = .normal } } } catch { // Error handling } } Immersive View Implementation： struct ImmersiveView: View { @EnvironmentObject var appModel: AppModel var body: some View { RealityView { content in let rootEntity = Entity() content.add(rootEntity) Task { if let selectedImage = appModel.selectedImage, appModel.canViewImage(selectedImage) { await loadPanorama(for: rootEntity) } } } update: { content in if appModel.updateImmersiveView, let selectedImage = appModel.selectedImage, appModel.canViewImage(selectedImage), let rootEntity = content.entities.first { Task { await loadPanorama(for: rootEntity) appModel.updateImmersiveView = false } } } .onAppear { print("ImmersiveView appeared") } .onDisappear { appModel.resetImmersiveState() } } // loadPanorama implementation... } What I've Tried Set immersionStyle to .full as recommended in the documentation Confirmed that the immersive space is properly opened and displaying panoramas Verified that the state management for the immersive space is working correctly Questions How can I ensure that when the user enters the immersive panorama viewing experience, all other windows (main interface and Earth 3D globe) are automatically hidden? Is there a specific API or approach I'm missing to properly implement a fully immersive experience that hides all other windows? Do I need to manually dismiss the windows when opening the immersive space, and if so, what's the best approach for doing this? Any guidance or sample code would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I have been concentrating on developing the visionOS application. While I am currently quite familiar with RealityKit, CompositorServices has also captured my attention. I have not yet acquired knowledge of CompositorServices. Could you please clarify whether it is essential for me to learn CompositorServices? Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could provide insights into the advantages of RealityKit and CompositorServices.

I implemented a ShaderGraphMaterial and tried to load it from my usda scene by ShaderGraphMaterial.init(name: in: bundle). I want to dynamically set TextureResource on that material, so I wanted to expose texture as Uniform Input of a ShaderGraphMaterial. But obviously RCP's Shader Graph doesn't support Texture input as parameter as the image shows: And from the code level, ShaderGraphMaterial also didn't expose a way to set TexturesResources neither. Its parameterNames shows an empty array if I didn't set any custom input params. The texture I get is from my backend so it really cannot be saved into a file and load it again (that would be too weird). Is there something I am missing?

In visionOS, there are existing modifiers that can completely conceal the hands. However, I am interested in learning how to achieve the effect of only one hand disappearing while the other hand remains visible. .upperLimbVisibility(.hidden)

This issue has been since visionOS 1 unless that is how it is supposed to work. As you can see in the screen capture the shadows from the top box are shown on all 3 boxes below. This is a screen capture in composer pro but the same thing happens in the Vision Pro. Is there any way to stop this behavior and just have shadows on the first object below the object that is casting the shadows ?

I have a MeshResource and I would like to create a collision component from it. let childBounds = child.visualBounds(relativeTo: self) var childShape: ShapeResource do { // Crashed by the following line instead of throwing a Swift Error childShape = try await ShapeResource.generateConvex(from: childModel.mesh); } catch { childShape = ShapeResource.generateBox(size: childBounds.extents) childShape = childShape.offsetBy(translation: childBounds.center) } Based on this document: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/realitykit/shaperesource/generateconvex(from:)-6upj9 Will throw an error if mesh does not define a nonempty convex volume. For example, will fail if all the vertices in mesh are coplanar.

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.

Hi, since RealityKit 4 now supports Blend Shapes I was wondering if there are any workflow or tooling recommendations to bake/export them into a USDZ. Are Blender or Cinema4D capable to do that out of the box? Should we look into NVIDIA omniverse (https://docs.omniverse.nvidia.com/connect/latest/blender/manual.htm) So far this topic seems very sparsely documented and I would appreciate any hints. Thank you!

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

I tried to show spatial photo on my application by swiftUI's Image but it just show flat version of it even I Use Vision Pro, so, how can I show spatial photo to users, does there any options for this?
