VISION PRO CONTINUED
For two months I have been making spatial videos without being able to see them in their spatial form. I could only see them on the flat screen of my iPad. And they looked terrific.
As soon as I got back from India I began searching for a way to see these videos. I had been told that they only way to see them was to them on the Vision Pro which cost $3500. I was determined to get to Greenville, SC, to the Apple Store in Heywood Mall and look at my videos and panoramas that I had made on this trip on the Vision Pro. I was ready to cash in my retirement money to buy one.
But several things make me pause. First of all, $3500 is a lot of money. Secondly, I am pretty certain that an improved version will come out about the time I have paid off this first expensive version over a year and that the new improved version will cost $1500. Thirdly, I am sure that the Vision Pro will show my spatial videos in sharp clarity and will wrap around my head, but the Vision Pro is almost impossible to share casually with someone else without a training session. I can make beautiful spatial videos but not be able to show them to anyone. Of course I can do many other things as well on the Vision Pro in this new world of virtual reality, most of them things I’ve never dreamed of doing. But sharing is what I most want to do.
And finally, I am sure that someone will quickly dream up a much cheaper device that will let me see spatial videos almost as well as on the Vision Pro.
So this pausing is keeping me from going bankrupt, but just barely.
