WWDC26: Use foveated streaming to bring immersive content to visionOS | Apple
Apple's Foveated Streaming framework lets Apple Vision Pro stream OpenXR content from PCs over Wi-Fi using eye-tracking-based compression.
“Foveated Streaming compresses video based on where a person is looking.”
Apple detailed its Foveated Streaming framework (introduced in visionOS 26.4) that streams OpenXR content from external PCs or the cloud to Vision Pro, using eye tracking to compress video and NVIDIA CloudXR for low-latency wireless streaming. It is a spatial-computing developer announcement with little direct AI relevance, mainly impacting VR/AR app developers rather than the broader AI industry.
