    How to film 3D video?

    What kind of video cameras can record immersive, 3D, 180 video that can be viewed on the Meta Quest and I'm assuming the Vision Pro? A lot of the ones I've seen online are old and/or discontinued or are $15k or more

    Apple and VR

    Will Apple ever support VR hmds like the Rift and Vive? I really want to switch from winblows to MacOS but the lack of VR support is what is keeping me from making the transition. It's very odd they haven't made any effort to support virtual reality. You would think the company that made the...
