There is no way yet of knowing more about the Vision Pro, but thanks to Apple, the recent releases confirm many features of the device, including its use in safe environments only. It was discovered that in the visionOS code, users are not allowed to use the device at high speeds, most especially when driving on the roads.
Moreover, there was a "Travel Mode" made for the Vision Pro for those who want to take the headset when traveling and use it as an entertainment device during flights.
Apple Vision Pro is Not Allowed for Driving, Issues Speed Warnings
9to5 Mac reported that it noticed previously unknown features from the visionOS, and this centers on the safety of its users, particularly when using the device when moving at high speeds. They claimed that the Vision Pro would bring speed warnings to users when it detects if a user is in motion and uses the wearable at the same time.
It would stop its transmission of the holographic pop-up screens and alert a user with a prompt that says "Virtual content has been temporarily hidden until you return to a safe speed."
Also, the device would notice if it is being used when "Moving at High Speeds."
This feature would ensure that users would not use the mixed-reality headset when they are driving, especially for those behind the wheel despite using autonomous driving technology.

Vision Pro 'Travel Mode' to Use for Flights
It was also discovered that the Vision Pro would have "Travel Mode" for users to turn on whenever going on flights, as this form of travel also goes at high speed when on the air.
However, it remains unknown if this said Travel Mode would also be applicable for car passengers who want to use the Vision Pro when traveling.
These were discovered via the recent release from Apple, centering on the visionOS SDK meant for developers.
Apple's Vision Pro
The Apple Vision Pro remains one of Apple's most revolutionary devices in the market, and it is not yet available in the market for those interested in the new tech wearable. As revealed in WWDC 2023, the highly-anticipated mixed-reality headset from Apple is set to release by early 2024, featuring one of the most advanced XR devices in the market.
Cupertino's AR/VR headset has lots of potential for the future of entertainment, communications, gaming, and more, but one of the things that is holding it back is its hefty price tag.
Speculations center on the further development of the Vision Pro, and there are claims that by 2025, another version will release, but this time, a less premium one with a more affordable offer from Apple.
The recent showcase showed promising features and functions for the Vision Pro that have a wide variety of functions, as well as future apps to showcase as Apple released the visionOS SDK. While this was meant for developers, internet sleuths have been keen on learning more about the device, with its safety features now explaining more about what to expect from the Vision Pro.
