The subsequent Apple Pencil, rumored for a launch alongside the new iPad Professional and iPad Air fashions within the subsequent few weeks, may be extra attention-grabbing than we have been anticipating. It seems that it couldn’t solely help iPads, however Apple’s Imaginative and prescient Professional headset as properly, based on an unnamed supply.
It is unclear precisely how the stylus would work with the headset, however the most secure assumption is maybe that you’ll draw with it on a desk or another flat floor and that might mechanically seem in visionOS on the Imaginative and prescient Professional, primarily turning your environment into the Pencil’s canvas, with stress and tilt sensitivity.
Do be aware that that is hypothesis – the supply solely claims Apple has internally examined a stylus with visionOS help, and that this stylus could be usable with drawing apps on the Imaginative and prescient Professional headset, like Freeform and Pixelmator, however not how.
If this occurs, then the Imaginative and prescient Professional will want a software program replace so as to add help for the brand new Apple Pencil, and Apple is anticipated to make the primary visionOS 1.2 beta accessible to builders as early as this week, so if it does, then folks will certainly go digging by way of the code to seek out any references to the brand new Apple Pencil, and in the event that they discover some, we’ll let you already know.
