Porsche has emerged as an early adopter of Vision Pro and is developing virtual retail experiences.
Apple took the stage today to announce major upgrades to its iPad lineup, including the iPad Pro and iPad Air. It's been two years since the last significant iPad updates, and today's releases bring a range of performance and display enhancements.
But the event wasn't just about tablets. In his opening remarks, CEO Tim Cook highlighted Porsche's innovative use of Apple's Vision Pro mixed reality headset to develop virtual retail experiences.
"We're seeing some amazing things being done with Apple Vision Pro," Cook said. "Porsche is building brand-new spatial experiences across the company, from reimagining track experiences to training service technicians to creating their showroom of the future."
A pre-recorded clip was showcased during the Apple event. In it, a Porsche customer was shown the Taycan in a mixed-reality environment. The user could switch between all the available colour options for the car with the pinch gesture.
Porsche has emerged as an early adopter of Vision Pro, embracing the headset's potential for training, design, and even customer experiences. Back in April, the German automaker revealed that it is using Vision Pro internally to train employees through interactive virtual production modules developed by the consultancy MHP.
At Porsche's Zuffenhausen plant, employees can use the headset to access step-by-step 3D repair instructions overlaid on equipment like robots and welding tables. MHP says this immersive approach reduces errors and boosts employee satisfaction.
The German marque was also the first to integrate Apple's CarPlay system directly into its vehicle UI, allowing drivers to seamlessly control audio, messaging, and other iPhone functions through its displays and controls.
While iPads drove much of today's Apple news cycle, the company looks to transform how we interact with vehicles, products, and environments through spatial computing. And Porsche is leading the charge.
