AVQueuePlayer and AVPlayerLooper implementation.
I am trying to loop my videoMaterial. I have researched the AXQueuePlayer and AVPlayerLooper and tried to implement them into my code. Please see attached. There are no errors showing up but the videoMaterial is no longer working. Please see the attached for the working code that plays the videoMaterial. I am stumped can anyone help me solve this? Thank you.

How to Move and Rotate WindowGroup with Code in Xcode
当我进入混合空间时,出现一个模型,但模型后面有一个 windowGroup,无法完全查看。如果我想点击进入 mix 空间,我需要使用代码将 windowGroup 移动到另一个位置,而不是手动移动 ![](“https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/0471ead0-4c74-43a7-9ecc-12e67e81cec6” “title=WechatIMG31.jpg;宽度=915;高度=777”)

ARFrame.sceneDepth not correctly registered with ARFrame.capturedImage for iPad Pro (6th Gen) for high resolution capture.
Hi team, I believe I’ve found a registration issue between ARFrame.sceneDepth and ARFrame.capturedImage when using high-resolution frame capture on a 2022 iPad Pro (6th gen). When enabling high-resolution capture: if let highResFormat = ARWorldTrackingConfiguration.recommendedVideoFormatForHighResolutionFrameCapturing { config.videoFormat = highResFormat } … arView.session.captureHighResolutionFrame { ... } the depth map provided by ARFrame.sceneDepth no longer aligns correctly with the corresponding high-resolution capturedImage. This misalignment results in consistently over-estimated distance measurements in my app (which relies on mapping depth to 2D pixel coordinates). iPad Pro (6th gen): misalignment occurs only when capturing high-resolution frames. iPhone 16 Pro: depth is correctly registered for both standard and high-resolution captures. It appears the camera intrinsics, specifically the FOV, change between the “regular” resolution stream and the high-resolution capture on the iPad. My suspicion is that the depth data continues using the intrinsics of the lower resolution stream, resulting in an unregistered depth-to-RGB mapping. Once I have the iPad in hand again, I will confirm whether camera.intrinsics or FOV differ between the low-res and high-res frames. Is this a known issue with high-resolution frame capture on the 2022 iPad Pro? If not, I’m happy to provide some more thorough sample code. Thanks for your time!

Logitech Muse: OS-level support?
I've been experimenting with the Muse pen and understand that it can be accessed by my app through a SpatialTrackingSession, but is there any current or planned support for devices like this as for general UI input like game controllers are? For example, using the button as a tap analogue for SwiftUI views.

MagnifyGesture in RealityView does not work on macOS
I have tested the MagnifyGesture code below on multiple devices: Vision Pro - working iPhone - working iPad - working macOS - not working In Reality Composer Pro, I have also added the below components to the test model entity: Input Target Collision For macOS, I tried the touchpad pinch gesture and mouse scroll wheel, but neither approach works. How to resolve this issue? Thank you. import SwiftUI import RealityKit import RealityKitContent struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { RealityView { content in // Add the initial RealityKit content if let immersiveContentEntity = try? await Entity(named: "Immersive", in: realityKitContentBundle) { content.add(immersiveContentEntity) } } .gesture(MagnifyGesture() .targetedToAnyEntity() .onChanged(onMagnifyChanged) .onEnded(onMagnifyEnded)) } func onMagnifyChanged(_ value: EntityTargetValue<MagnifyGesture.Value>) { print("onMagnifyChanged") } func onMagnifyEnded(_ value: EntityTargetValue<MagnifyGesture.Value>) { print("onMagnifyEnded") } }

RealityView doesn't free up memory after disappearing
Basically, take just the Xcode 26 AR App template, where we put the ContentView as the detail end of a NavigationStack. Opening app, the app uses < 20MB of memory. Tapping on Open AR the memory usage goes up to ~700MB for the AR Scene. Tapping back, the memory stays up at ~700MB. Checking with Debug memory graph I can still see all the RealityKit classes in the memory, like ARView, ARRenderView, ARSessionManager. Here's the sample app to illustrate the issue. PS: To keep memory pressure on the system low, there should be a way of freeing all the memory the AR uses for apps that only occasionally show AR scenes.

Possible to detect multiple images at the same time on VisionPro?
I'm working on a project that uses imageTrackingProvider through ARKit on VisionPro, and I want to detect multiple images(about 5) and show info at the same time. However, I found that it seems only 1 image could be detected by device at one time. And the api of maximumNumberOfTrackedImages doing this seems not available for visionOS but only iOS. Anyone knows possible ways to detect multiple images at the same time on VisionPro?

New Spatial Rendering App on macOS doesn't display on visionOS device
I created a new Spatial Rendering App from the template in Xcode 26.0.1. When I run the app, click 'Show Immersive Space' and select my Vision Pro from the pop-up dialog, the content in the dialog flickers (which seems to indicate something crashed) and nothing appears on my Vision Pro. I'm running the released macOS 26.0 (25A354) and visionOS 26.0 (23M336). Filed as FB20397093.

Adding reference image failed in VisionPro
I am using ARKit to detect image in visionPro. However I met some question about adding the reference image. Some of my images can not be added correctly sometimes. (As you can see in the picture above, the 'orange' can not be added correctly, but the 'cup' can). However, sometimes they will be added without any problem. I do not know why it will happen. And I want they all be added steadily.

目前在使用Unity进行开发时,遇到了材质(Material)和Shader在visionOS设备上无法正常渲染的问题
具体表现为:在Unity编辑器中材质显示正常,但部署到Vision Pro真机后部分材质丢失或Shader效果异常(如透明通道失效、光照计算错误等)。此问题影响了开发进度,希望得到技术支持的帮助 Specific results: The materials are displayed normally in the Unity editor, but after being deployed to the Vision Pro real machine, some materials are lost or the Shader effect is abnormal (such as transparent channel failure, antenna calculation error, etc.). This problem has affected the development progress, and I hope to get help from technical support

RealityView camera feed not shown
I have two RealityView: ParentView and When click the button in ParentView, ChildView will be shown as full screen cover, but the camera feed in ChildView will not be shown, only black screen. If I show ChildView directly, it works with camera feed. Please help me on this issue? Thanks. import RealityKit import SwiftUI struct ParentView: View{ @State private var showIt = false var body: some View{ ZStack{ RealityView{content in content.camera = .virtual let box = ModelEntity(mesh: MeshResource.generateSphere(radius: 0.2),materials: [createSimpleMaterial(color: .red)]) content.add(box) } Button("Click here"){ showIt = true } } .fullScreenCover(isPresented: $showIt){ ChildView() .overlay( Button("Close"){ showIt = false }.padding(20), alignment: .bottomLeading ) } .ignoresSafeArea(.all) } } import ARKit import RealityKit import SwiftUI struct ChildView: View{ var body: some View{ RealityView{content in content.camera = .spatialTracking } } }

Playing USDZ animation at last known location of reference object
Hi there I'm using Reality Composer Pro to anchor virtual content to a .referenceobject. However by moving the referenceobject quickly, it causes tracking to stop. (I know this is a limitation so im trying to make it a feature) IS there a way to play a USDZ animation at the last known location, after detecting that reference object is no longer being tracked? is it possible to set this up in Reality Composer pro? Nearly everything is set up in Reality Composer pro with my immersive.scene just anchoring virtual content to the Reference object in the RCP Scene, so my immersive view just does this - if let immersiveContentEntity = try? await Entity(named: "Immersive", in: realityKitContentBundle) { content.add(immersiveContentEntity) & this .onAppear { appModel.immersiveSpaceState = .open } .onDisappear { appModel.immersiveSpaceState = .closed } I have tried Using SpatialTracking & WorldTrackProvider, but I'm still quite new to Swift and coding in general so im unsure how to implement in conjunction with my RCP scene and if this is actually the right way to do it. Apologies for my lack of knowledge.

Playing USDZ animation at last known location of reference object
Hi there I'm using Reality Composer Pro to anchor virtual content to a .referenceobject. However moving the referenceobject quickly causes tracking to stop. (I know this is a limitation and I am trying to embrace it as a feature) Is there a way to play a USDZ animation at the last known location, after detecting that the reference object is no longer tracked? is it possible to set this up in Reality Composer pro? I'm trying to get the USDZ to play before the Virtual Content disappears (due to reference object not being located). So that it smooths out the vanishing of the content. Nearly everything is set up in Reality Composer pro with my immersive.scene just adding virtual content to the reference object which anchors it in the RCP Scene, so my immersive view just does this - if let immersiveContentEntity = try? await Entity(named: "Immersive", in: realityKitContentBundle) { content.add(immersiveContentEntity) & this .onAppear { appModel.immersiveSpaceState = .open } .onDisappear { appModel.immersiveSpaceState = .closed } I have tried Using SpatialTracking & WorldTrackingProvider, but I'm still quite new to Swift and coding in general so im unsure how to implement in conjunction with my RCP scene and/or if this is the right way to go about it. Also I have implemented this at the beginning of object tracking. All I had to do was add a onAppear behavior to the object to play a USDZ and that works. Doing it for disappearing (due to loss of reference object) seems to be a lot harder.

RoomPlan - The delegate of ARSession is retaining x ARFrames
Hi, I'm encountering an issue in our app that uses RoomPlan and ARsession for scanning. After prolonged use—especially under heavy load from both the scanning process and other unrelated app operations—the iPhone becomes very hot, and the following warning begins to appear more frequently: "ARSession <0x107559680>: The delegate of ARSession is retaining 11 ARFrames. The camera will stop delivering camera images if the delegate keeps holding on to too many ARFrames. This could be a threading or memory management issue in the delegate and should be fixed." I was able to reproduce this behavior using Apple’s RoomPlanExampleApp, with only one change: I introduced a CPU-intensive workload at the end of the startSession() function: DispatchQueue.global().asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 5) { for i in 0..<4 { var value = 10_000 DispatchQueue.global().async { while true { value *= 10_000 value /= 10_000 value ^= 10_000 value = 10_000 } } } } I suspect this is some RoomPlan API problem that's why a filed an feedback: 17441091

iOS AR Kit Blendshapes on Vision OS
I work on motion capture systems for VTubing. I can't seem to find any information on gaining access to the Face Tracking features on iOS while developing for Vision OS. I would love to bring VStreamer Live to Vision OS
