"Vehicle Motion Cues come to visionOS, which can help reduce motion sickness for people who use Apple Vision Pro as a passenger in a moving vehicle. Vision Pro will also support face gestures for performing taps and system actions, plus a new way to select elements with one’s eyes while using Dwell Control."

Maybe just don't wear them in a car?

Wearing a headset in the back of an Uber doesn't sound that crazy,

I use those motion cues on my iPhone even though I don't struggle with motion sickness https://www.youtube.com/shorts/OxbjggMcKrk

I use them as well. I'm usually the driver so I don't typically look at my phone while the car is moving, but I recently rode along with a family member to an event. They handed me their iPhone to look at something and I felt totally disoriented trying to look at a moving screen in a moving car. I had to resist the urge to turn on the motion cues.

It's really useful for having a decent screen up in front of me when I'm a passenger trying to do something on the laptop. Saves staring down at my lap, and removes any motion on my screen from the peripheral view of the driver.

Still somewhat odd when a bus drives out from behind your Terminal mind.

Trains. Airplanes. TFA said vehicle, not car.

From the article: "new features for controlling power wheelchairs with Apple Vision Pro"

Someone using this feature will want motion cues as well.

And in your quote: Dwell Control is a feature set to interact with an Apple Vision Pro using only your eyes. Lingering your gaze on a button will press it. An AVP is now more comfortable to use in more situations because of motion cues.

Maybe just rethink your "maybe just" comment...?

Trains are a thing.

[jclardy]

Planes? Trains? If you haven't used these motion dots, they actually do work wonders. My wife gets motion sickness and could barely ever look at her phone when riding as a passenger in the car, even just to type in directions. With the motion dots she does just fine.

Why not?

We probably do need laws to prevent people watching movies in an Apple Vision Pro whilst driving.

We have harsh laws on using phones whilst driving, a Vision Pro (if configured in a specific way) could entirely block your vision with a Movie or Show and this is dangerous.

[yreg]

This might come as a surprise to some, but most people sitting in a moving vehicle are not driving. Trains and buses exist. Even in cars you usually have multiple seats and the ability to transport passengers.

Also, in what country is it legal to drive around with a VR headset?

[crooked-v]

This is for a passenger.

Because the more we reject our shared reality and substitute it with each our own, the less humane we become.

[nozzlegear]

The AVP is primarily an AR device, not VR.

[jkman]

God forbid a person rejects the shared reality of a boring 12 hour flight and substitutes it with their own. Some real deep thoughts here

[throwaway132448]

I’ve met some very interesting people on flights. I’ve done some great work. I’ve had some great ideas.

Don’t be so scared of variety. You just keep subjecting yourself to more of the same. The unending familiarity makes you dull.
