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 All,
We're a studio building an app and as part of a scene we have a 3D asset with a smoke particle emitter and a curved mesh that plays video. I notice that when the video alone is played or the particle effect alone is done then the scene works fine but the frame rate drops drastically when both are turned on.
How do I solve this because this is an important storytelling feature.
Hi,
I am in the process of implementing SharePlay into our app. The shared experience opens an Immersive Space and we set systemCoordinator.configuration.supportsGroupImmersiveSpace = true
Now visionOS establishes a shared coordinate space for the immersive space.
From the docs:
To achieve consistent positioning of RealityKit entities across multiple devices in an immersive space during a SharePlay session
There are cases where we want to position content in front of the user (independent of the shared session, and for each user individually). Normally to do that we use the transform retrieved via worldTrackingProvider.queryDeviceAnchor.originFromAnchorTransform
to position content in front of the user (plus some Z Offset and smooth interpolation).
This works fine in non-SharePlay instances and the device transform is where I would expect it to be but during the FaceTime call deviceAnchor.originFromAnchorTransform seems to use the shared origin of the immersive space and then I end up with a transform that might be offset.
Here is a video of the issue in action: https://streamable.com/205r2p
The blue rect is place using AnchorEntity(.head, trackingMode: .continuous). This works regardless of the call and the entity is always placed based on the head position.
The green rect is adjusted on every frame using the transform I get from worldTrackingProvider.queryDeviceAnchor. As you can see it's offset.
Is there any way I can query query this transform locally for the user during a FaceTime call?
Also I would like to know if it's possible to disable this automatic entity transform syncing behavior?
Setting entity.synchronization = nil results in the entity not showing up at all.
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/realitykit/synchronizationcomponent
Is SynchronizationComponent only relevant for the legacy MultiPeerConnectivity approach?
Thank you!
Hello,
I'm currently trying to make a collaborative app. But it just works only on Reality View, when I tried to use Compositor Layer like below, the personas disappeared.
ImmersiveSpace(id: "ImmersiveSpace-Metal") {
CompositorLayer(configuration: MetalLayerConfiguration()) { layerRenderer in
SpatialRenderer_InitAndRun(layerRenderer)
}
}
Is there any potential solution too see Personas in Metal view?
Thanks in advance!
I downloaded the file through Scoot, and when I remove VisionPro, the app will call the StreamDelegate method and return ". endEncountered". How can I solve this problem?
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 am trying to launch a fully immersive game from Unity on a SwiftUI view. The game is using Metal Rendering with Compositor Services.
I added the unity Xcode project into the workspace, added the necessary bridge code. When I click on the button to call ufw?.showUnityWindow(), it does not start and I get the following in the console:
AR session failed to start after 5 seconds. Is the app configured to use an immersive space?
Hi I have a monitoring app, that will take input video from uvc and process it using Metal, and eventually get a MTLTexture.
The problem I'm facing is I have to convert MTLTexture to CGImage then call TextureResource.replace, which is super slow. Metal processing speed is same as input frame rate(50pfs), but MTLTexture -> CGImage -> TextureResource only got 7fps...
Is there any way I can make it faster?

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.

For the M2 Apple Vision Pro, there's "a general guideline, we recommend no more than 500 thousand triangles for an immersive scene, with 250 thousand for applications in the shared space." --https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2024/10186/?time=147
Is there a revised recommendation for the M5 Apple Vision Pro?
Hello,
I have downloaded and run the sample object tracking app for visionos.
Now I'm working on my own objects for tracking. I have made a model using Create ML using images of my object.
However, I cannot see how to convert the Create ML output file (xxx.mlmodel) into a reference object like the files in the sample project.
is there a tool for converting them?
TIA

If I long press on an element, the sidebar disappears and then a Done appears on the screen, but nothing else changes, so what are the Environments in Vision Pro's Simulator?
I want to open the control center in Vision Pro’s Xcode simulator. Can I open it? If I can, please tell me how to do it. Thank you.
At the moment the map kit APls only support non-volumetric maps (i.e. in a window or in a volume, but on a 2D surface).
Is support for 3D volumetric maps in VisionOS in the works? And if so when can we expect it to be available?
Hi everyone,
I’m building a visualization app for VisionPro that uses SharePlay and GroupActivities to explore datasets collaboratively.
I’ve successfully implemented the new SharedWorldAnchor feature, and everything works well with nearby, local participants.
However, I’m stuck on one point:
How can I share a world anchor with remote participants who join via FaceTime as spatial personas?
Apple’s demo app (where multiple users move a plane model around) seems to suggest that this is possible.
For context, I’m building an immersive app with Metal rendering.
Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Jens
I’m facing an issue while using CustomHoverEffect. In my view, there is a long title, which causes the title to be truncated. When the user hovers over it, the title should scroll. Although I have already implemented the scrolling effect, I am unsure how to trigger the scroll on hover. How should I approach this?
Hello,
I've been tinkering a bit with TextComponent.
Based on the docs it seems like this component should always render sharp and nice text, no matter how close the user gets:
RealityKit dynamically adjusts the backing size to a value that results in high-fidelity text at its current location.
And it does on visionOS, but on iOS and macOS the text gets pixelated when I get close to it, as if its just rendering it once as a plain image texture.
Can anyone tell me if this is expected behavior or a bug?
Here two screenshots for comparison (iPhone and Vision Pro):
Thanks!
In WWDC25 session What’s new for the spatial web, the presenter showed creating an immersive environment for a web page by adding to the page's HEAD section
<link rel="spatial-backdrop" href="office.usdz" environmentmap="lighting.hdr">
My first attempt failed, and I am trying to track down why.
Before I search all the potential failure paths, I wanted to ask the community,
Is this feature available in the latest visionOS 26 beta?
I haven't seen anyone talk about their use of the feature yet.

With Xcode 26, loading ressources with RealityKit is extremely slow.
Here my project takes almost 50 seconds to load.
I also get multiple Hang detected messages in the console:
When I uncheck "Debug executable" in the schema, the same project loads in 2 seconds.
I'm using RealityKit asynchronous loading:
private static func loadFromRealityComposerPro(
named entityName: String,
fromSceneNamed sceneName: String
) async -> Entity? {
var entity: Entity?
do {
let scene = try await Entity(
named: sceneName,
in: visionPetsContentBundle
)
entity = scene.findEntity(named: entityName)
} catch {
print(
"Error loading \(entityName) from scene \(sceneName): \(error.localizedDescription)"
)
}
return entity
}
Anyone having the same problem?

I've been struggling with this for far too long so I've decided to finally come here and see if anyone can point me to the documentation that I'm missing. I'm sure it's something so simple but I just can't figure it out.
I can SharePlay our test app with my brother (device to device) but when I open a volumetric window, it says "not shared" under it. I assume this will likely fix the video sharing problem we have as well. Everything else works so smooth but SharePlay has just been such a struggle for me. It's the last piece to the puzzle before we can put it on the App Store.
