Innovation for Apple Vision Pro
LONG BEACH, Calif.,
March 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- This year, there's only one place to get immersed in the
entire XR ecosystem while getting a deep dive into Apple Vision
Pro. Brands, developers, designers and product managers: mark your
calendars for Augmented World Expo.
AWE, now celebrating its 15th anniversary as the only "must
attend" global XR industry event, announces that registration is
now open for the AWE Vision Workshop, a FULL DAY workshop for Apple
Vision Pro. The workshop will take place at the Long Beach Convention Center on June 17th, 2024, immediately before the three-day
AWE conference from June 18-20th.
(Note: this event is not affiliated with Apple.)
The workshop will be sponsored by Unity, the world's leading
platform of tools for creators to build and grow real-time games,
apps, and experiences across multiple platforms. Unity will
showcase and demo how its platform works for spatial
computing, enabling a wide range of experiences, from games and
entertainment to industrial use cases such as training for Apple
Vision Pro.
Raven Zachary and Dom Sagolla,
co-founders of VisionDevCamp, will host the workshop. Workshop
sessions will be led by top experts who have successfully built the
first visionOS consumer and enterprise apps. Some of the
world-class speakers include:
- Bert Nepveu, Co-Founding Partner of Triptyq Capital
- Andy Roth, Founder, Deviant
Labs
- Daniel Marqusee, Lead Spatial Designer, Bezi
- James Ashley, previously
XR Engineering Lead for Walmart's Apple Vision Pro
app

Owlchemy Labs
- Adam Lisagor, Founder,
Sandwich
- Zac Duff, Co-Founder/CEO, JigSpace
- And more to be announced!
"Apple Vision Pro not only sets a new high bar for spatial
computing, but also promises to provide a lucrative ecosystem for
developers hungry for revenue. So, we've assembled the very best
instructors to teach anyone how to build for the Apple Vision Pro
and harness those opportunities," explained Ori Inbar, co-founder of AWE. "This workshop is
not to be missed!"
Attendees will:
- Get an overview of Apple Vision Pro hardware and software
capabilities
- Dive into real world case studies from Apple Vision Pro
experts
- Learn the 3 development paths (visionOS, Unity, web), their
strengths, and limitations
- Understand how to navigate the publishing process for
visionOS apps
- Enjoy hands on time with Apple Vision Pro
Beyond the workshop itself, dozens of exhibitors will be
showcasing Apple Vision Pro and various applications for it
throughout the three days of AWE - with many dozens of Apple Vision
Pro units on site - we anticipate that this will be the highest
concentration of Apple Vision Pro devices ever in a single public
location.
Seats are limited. To register for the conference, go here. The
Vision Workshop can be added to an Early Bird AWE ticket for just
$99
