The Apple Vision Pro is a pioneer in the world of augmented reality headsets with unparalleled capabilities that offer a unique experience in the metaverse.
Integrating Apple Vision Pro into the metaverse significantly expands the possibilities for both manufacturers and users. This headset allows users to explore virtual landscapes, interact with virtual objects, and connect with other participants in real-time by seamlessly blending the physical and digital worlds. Vision Pro further enhances the metaverse experience, allowing users to participate in virtual events and implement creative projects together.
Of course, this can be a big step forward for blockchain and crypto companies operating in the realm of the metaverse, as Apple Vision Pro becomes a new resource for these companies.
A new resource for blockchain-based metaverse and game developers is Apple Vision Pro
Blockchain based game developers and metaverses are well positioned to take advantage of Apple Vision Pro's transforming power. These companies can provide players with better immersion, engagement and a new gaming experience by implementing this XR headset on their platforms. The combination of Vision Pro with blockchain technology enables decentralized ownership of in-game assets and supports a vibrant environment where users can control their virtual property. This convergence of blockchain gaming and augmented reality technologies paves the way for a more inclusive and inventive gaming ecosystem.

Some blockchain and metaverse companies have already signed some sort of partnership with Apple, while some may do so soon. Here are our top 5:
The Sandbox (SAND)
Some dedicated open metaverse advocates, including Sebastian Borger, co-founder and CEO of The Sandbox game (SAND), believe that Apple's Vision Pro will rely on Web3 applications and blockchain-based experiences to the extent that Apple's it will be inevitable for him to embrace technology.
According to Borget, Apple's move enables the creation of new immersive experiences that bring us closer to the metaverse, opening up new possibilities for artists.
Thanks to generative artificial intelligence technologies, developers can create immersive environments without having to manually code dozens of elements, thus shortening the time from idea to creation. This could start a new wave of innovation in how games exist in augmented reality, allowing designers to create interesting new experiences.
For example, a developer can quickly combine AR components with an upcoming avatar drop to keep users engaged. Augmented reality games can respond to relevant inputs in real time, filling the game with new objects and elements.
Spheroid Universe (SPH)
In development since 2017, their augmented reality metaverse is finally getting a proper hardware platform to realize its full potential. This platform enables on virtual real estate i.e. Space NFT's display of digital content in augmented reality, which users record and localize in different geographical locations.
In addition, their PLAY to EARN (P2E) augmented reality game, Planeta Nostra, will debut in 2024 , provides a suitable hardware base for It is a shooting game through which users can not only play but also earn money. In addition, the technology behind the game collects data about the surrounding world, thereby contributing to Spheroid Earth project, which aimed to create a digital copy of our world, based on the point cloud generated from it. Artificial intelligence and computer vision algorithms then use the point cloud to localize the observer of the AR visualization in space to provide a coherent experience for users.
The Spheroid Universe (SPH ) is a platform that supports project development based on augmented reality. The technological basis of the platform is the Spheroid XR Cloud and the Spheroid Script programming language developed for the creation of AR/XR.
Unity
Shares of game development software maker Unity soared 26% on Monday, just after Apple announced a partnership to release the Apple Vision Pro headset. It was the biggest rise in the company's stock since the company's initial public offering in 2020.
According to Susan Prescott, Apple's vice president of worldwide developer relations, Unity will provide its real-time 3D tools and capabilities to Apple Vision Pro, and developers will implement both new and existing Unity-made apps and games on the new spatial computing platform.
Decentraland (MANA)
Yemel Jardi, CEO of Decentraland, said he was honest about the product and what it means for the industry as a whole. “An open metaverse must be based on hardware. We want better hardware," he said.
In addition, one of the most critical metaversal difficulties addressed by Vision Pro is the digital persona. One of the most attractive features of the metaverse is that users can interact with each other virtually, but many people find interacting with cartoonish avatars difficult.
Vision Pro attempts to solve this problem by allowing users to create hyper-realistic digital personas. Therefore, users will be able to scan their faces to create digital avatars of themselves for the Decentraland metaverse.
Be that as it may, it won't be strange if you can soon use Apple Vision Pro to visit your land in Decetraland.
Disney
Integrating Disney content into Apple's new device is most likely a continuation of Apple's metaverse strategy, which was originally announced in mid-2022. Disney has already expressed its commitment to the Polygon blockchain, hiring highly skilled executives to lead their quest to create immersive virtual experiences. After that, in order to increase resources, they moved further in the field of Web3 activities, introducing NFTs and in-house consultants specializing in decentralized finance (DeFi).
However, Disney appeared to be laying off 7,000 employees in March, including those on the Metaverse team.
Disney's increased interest in virtual technology could mean reopening this chapter, now with Apple's resources. It further legitimizes the nascent technology and demonstrates its potential applications to billions of Disney fans worldwide.
Conclusion
As true digital ownership increasingly manifests in reality, the doors to innovation are opening to interactivity, creativity and functionality. Thanks to augmented reality (AR), virtual devices have now become more adaptable, usable and integrated in reality. Avatars can be incorporated into this new mixed reality in a number of different ways, further expanding the application possibilities of these tools.
With the new AR and VR devices, almost everything becomes possible - from getting store discounts to owning your own avatar, to interactively watching AR music videos where the avatar is the main character. The interactive interweaving of avatars, digital ownership, and mixed reality holds exciting possibilities, and Apple seems to recognize that potential.
At the same time, Apple hasn't made gaming a priority for a long time, and today's announcement of the Vision Pro only reinforces that position. It's possible that Apple still has a few AR gaming surprises in store and will reveal them later to build momentum for a 2024 debut.
