From spatial widgets to realistic Personas: All the visionOS updates Apple announced at WWDC


Apple’s updates to VisionOS 26, the operating system powering its mixed reality headset, build off last year’s Apple Vision Pro spatial computer that blends digital content with the physical world. At WWDC, Apple announced a range of updates for both consumer and enterprise customers, from new spatial widgets and content to more realistic Personas and more.

The new Personas take advantage of “volumetric rendering and machine learning technology” to enhance everything from how you look in full side profile view to delivering more accurate-looking hair, eyelashes, and complexion.
