Apple has launched a new application for Mac and Vision Pro. As reported by MacRumors, ‘Apple Immersive Video Utility’ is now accessible on the App Store, providing creators with an innovative tool to handle Immersive Video files.
New application for Mac and Vision Pro likely isn’t intended for everyone
Immersive Video is a proprietary format by Apple designed for 180-degree video content featured on Vision Pro.
The introduction of new Immersive Videos has been gradual during the inaugural year of Vision Pro, but various indicators suggest that Apple is beginning to accelerate this process.
For instance, new third-party devices and tools have emerged that are expected to enhance Immersive Video production, such as a specialized Blackmagic camera and support for DaVinci Resolve.
Now, the Apple Immersive Video Utility app has become available to aid creators beyond Apple in assembling their immersive content, provided they have the essential hardware.
Below are the complete release notes for the app:
