Apple Vision Pro receives Niantic 8th Wall Metaversal Deployment support

Niantic announced today that it’s rolling out support for its 8th Wall Metaversal Deployment to the Apple Vision Pro headset. This means that creators who build apps for other mixed reality headsets can now deploy them easily to Apple’s headset without having to do as much extra work. They also have access to the Vision Pro’s complete VR environment.

Metaversal Deployment is Niantic’s solution for distribution of mixed reality experiences via WebAR. It allows developers to deploy spatial computing across multiple platforms. It was originally launched in 2021 for mobile devices and computers, but it was updated in 2023 to include support for the Meta Quest 3.
