One of the main features available to the Vision Pro is to mirror the Mac's display into the AR and VR world, and this is similar to how the tech is available on Apple's computer and iPad. Through this feature, users may bring their experience straight to the wearable, and here, they can do the usual features where browsing, using applications, or playing Mac games may be accessed.
Mac Display on Vision Pro: How to Use the Feature?
While the world is still exploring the many features and experiences of the Vision Pro, a significant development by Apple, built-in to the AR/VR headset is available to use now. This is known as the Mac Virtual Display which helps mirror the desktop experience inside the augmented reality world, offering a virtual screen that allows a person to use the computer.
To turn it on, users may simply look at their Mac while wearing the Vision Pro and virtually click "Connect." However, if it is not automatically detected, users may head to the Control Center of the Vision Pro choose "Mac Virtual Display" and look for the name of their computer.
On the other hand, users may head to their Mac's Contro Center and click Screen Mirroring, choosing the Vision Pro as their preferred display. It is also important to note that both should have the same Apple ID logged in for this to work.
Apple Vision Pro's Mac Virtual Display
Apple Silicon-equipped Macs can bring the full 4K resolution display of the computer to the Vision Pro, but users who own compatible Intel-based Macs may also use this but maxes out at 3K. Both MacBooks and Mac desktops are compatible with the experience.
This serves as a "private display" for the Mac, and when Vision Pro is connected, the screen of the computer will turn black and be unusable.
Apple Vision Pro
After the iconic release of the Vision Pro around five days ago, the world is getting its fill of the latest mixed-reality headset from Apple, including various uses to improve the experience. One hack was to remove the light seal on the headset which serves as a way to reduce light pollution and hold the Vision Pro upright to the head, saying that it can help immerse users more in multiple setups.
The dawn of the Vision Pro to the world saw different ways to use the wearable headset, with some using it in public places like subways, restaurants, and even walking around. However, one took the immersive experience to the next level by using it while driving their Tesla while on Autopilot mode, something that is frowned upon by Apple, also leading to arresting the user.
There are many features to enjoy on the Vision Pro and this does not rely on apps alone, but through its connectable experiences and passthrough that could help boost multitasking.
Turning your Vision Pro into a computer (while being technically a spatial computer) is easy, something that Apple already planned to feature, centering on the Mac Virtual Display that mirrors its screen.
