Apple has taken a modular approach to the design of the Vision Pro, combining glass, aluminum, and textile fabric to create a comfortable and customizable mixed reality headset. Weighing approximately a pound, the device boasts a sleek appearance resembling a pair of ski goggles. The front-facing cameras and external screen are covered by a three-dimensionally formed laminated glass enclosure, ensuring that others in the vicinity are not faced with a blank display.
To enhance wearability, the Vision Pro features a custom aluminum alloy frame that curves around the face, providing structural support for the internal components. Openings strategically placed on the frame facilitate airflow and cooling. Additionally, the device incorporates a fabric “Light Seal” that curves around the face, blocking incoming light and ensuring a comfortable fit. Apple offers various Light Seal options to accommodate different facial structures.
Immersive Audio Experience
The Vision Pro incorporates innovative audio strips made of silicon, directly connected to the aluminum frame on the sides. These strips house speakers that deliver Spatial Audio, revolutionizing sound perception. During setup, users can scan their ears to personalize the Spatial Audio experience. This cutting-edge audio technology, combined with audio ray-tracing and environmental analysis, creates an immersive soundscape that mimics the audio environment surrounding the user.
