The Apple Vision Pro VR headset boasts a fascinating feature: Personas. These digital avatars allow you to see a virtual representation of yourself during calls, Zoom meetings, and other interactions. Initially, these Personas had an eerie quality, but Apple has made significant improvements in their latest release.
With the visionOS 1.1 update, you will notice a remarkable transformation. The updated Personas now appear more realistic, moving away from the impressionist-style look and resembling actual humans. The visual enhancements include sharper details, improved proportions, and reduced blurriness.
To experience the upgraded Personas, you must recapture your digital self after installing the visionOS 1.1 update. This process involves pointing the headset at their face with it turned off. The result? A more authentic spatial representation that accurately reflects facial expressions and hand movements. And fear not—Apple acknowledges that Personas are still in beta. So, we're expecting to see more changes as Apple develops the feature.
