JUST REPLICATED APPLE'S $3,499 VISION PRO PERSONA

$2,000 a day. That's what professional motion capture rigs rent for in Tokyo studios. The same tech Apple engineers studied while building the Persona feature on Vision Pro.

One Japanese creator just clipped the entire thing to his jacket like a name tag.

Apple charges $3,499 for the headset.
He spent $8 in parts.

Same real-time facial expression mirroring.
Same smile when you smile.
Same blink when you blink.
Same low latency mirror feel.

Apple did it with an M2 chip, a dedicated R1 processor, 12 cameras, LiDAR, TrueDepth array and a custom lenticular OLED screen.

He did it with:
> one $3 ESP32 microcontroller
> a tiny camera module
> MediaPipe running face mesh tracking with 468 landmarks directly on-device
> a small LiPo battery

Total BOM: eight dollars.

The gap that was supposed to take decades just got closed in a weekend.

Apple calls it Persona.
He calls it a badge.

While everyone else is still waiting for the next big hardware drop, one guy already made the flagship spatial computing feature into a wearable pin anyone can copy.

This is the new reality.

Full system in the video below.

@SteveTalkowski @Apple @UnrealEngine I have access to a vision pro but havent found a use. i hear movie watching is nice though 🙄. I work with Unreal, Blender and play on Steam. How can I put it to use? Got recommendations for me?

@NathieVR A quick "generated" / close-enough sketch of my current apartment. It took some hunting to find the right fit. Also, it's ground floor so that I don't drive my neighbors nuts with all the jumping around.

I've been told I need more furniture.

@TomasKral_cz Some people play sudoku or tetris... some play puzzles with polys. I like that I end up with something I can share.🤷‍♂️

@EdwardUrena_h @BlenderDev I have to check out later, but guessing we on same page. As someone who also rigs in Unreal's Control Rig, and meets with the Blender team regularly... I can say this discussion started in 2019 and wont be going away. ;)

Arcs are everywhere, even at the wing tips. 🦉 Pay attention to the asymmetry of the arc, narrowing at the top and widening at the bottom.

@peterfalkingham @jonstephens85 @Affinity Babysteps. :D

[@[email protected] 🐘 @jerbotnet]

@peterfalkingham @jonstephens85 @Affinity Same experience here. Adobe used to be the missing piece that I would hear complained about the most, and gaming. While the gaming piece is mostly solved (thx to Valve), the missing Affinity suite is the concern I hear about the most now.
