The subsequent Apple Pencil, rumored for a launch alongside the brand new iPad Professional and iPad Air fashions within the subsequent few weeks, is perhaps extra fascinating than we had been anticipating. It seems that it couldn’t solely assist iPads, however Apple’s Imaginative and prescient Professional headset as nicely, based on an unnamed supply.
It is unclear precisely how the stylus would work with the headset, however the most secure assumption is probably that you can draw with it on a desk or another flat floor and that will routinely seem in visionOS on the Imaginative and prescient Professional, primarily turning your environment into the Pencil’s canvas, with stress and tilt sensitivity.
Do observe that that is hypothesis – the supply solely claims Apple has internally examined a stylus with visionOS assist, and that this stylus can 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 assist for the brand new Apple Pencil, and Apple is predicted to make the primary visionOS 1.2 beta out there to builders as early as this week, so if it does, then folks will certainly go digging by the code to search out any references to the brand new Apple Pencil, and in the event that they discover some, we’ll let you recognize.
