The discussion shifts to hardware, specifically the introduction of a protective case for the VisionPro that allows for uninterrupted functionality without hampering the device’s sensors. Marty shares his anticipation for using it, reinforcing the practicality of such accessories that meet user needs without compromising on functionality. Moving onto the world of software, Dave brings to light a newly discovered demo app available in the App Store, suggesting that Apple may soon enable third-party retailers to sell the VisionPro through this application.
