GoKawiilLast week, we learned that visionOS 26.4 enables Nvidia’s CloudXR 6.0 technology on Apple Vision Pro. Now Nvidia is officially announcing its work with Apple, which enables a new “Immersive for Autodesk VRED” app and more.
CloudXR for visionOS
At a high level, Nvidia’s CloudXR 6.0 is the first software development kit developed in partnership with Apple that allows sharing user gaze data. Nvidia’s SDK enables doing so over a private and secure connection.
This allows foveated streaming at 4K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate without being tethered to a PC. Nvidia is also providing multi-platform Xcode templates to accelerate development. This means app makers can build once and deploy on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Vision Pro.
Nvidia says it’s building on top of the phenomenal standalone fidelity of Apple Vision Pro to meet true-to-reality enterprise demands:
At the NVIDIA GTC global AI conference running this week in San Jose, NVIDIA and Apple
detailed how visionOS now supports NVIDIA CloudXR with foveated streaming, enabling
apps to display high-resolution, low-latency immersive content on Apple Vision Pro. This
feature intelligently optimizes rendering resolution based on approximately where the user
is looking, while strictly protecting user gaze data. Demanding XR and spatial computing workloads share three critical requirements:
