Earlier this year, Apple announced its first mixed-reality headset, the Vision Pro. The Vision Pro is not just an AR/VR headset, but a self-sufficient computer that offers a revolutionary way to interact with the world. Apple has also made sure that the Vision Pro is comfortable for people who wear prescription glasses. Users can use prescription lenses exclusively from Zeiss, which attach magnetically to the device. But looks like there’s also a software pairing process involved.

X (formerly Twitter) users @M1Astra shared a bunch of code snippets on a thread that shows the software pairing process of the optical inserts with the Vision Pro headset. The process listed is as follows (Via AppleInsider):

• Restart Apple VisionPro with Optic Inserts installed, and have a code or order confirmation ready
• Enter the passcode to enable Optic ID with the newly inserted Optical Inserts.
• After a test to verify the user can look at a set of dots, the user will need to look at the pairing code.
• A warning could appear stating that incorrectly installed or dirty Optical Inserts will affect input accuracy.
• Setup may ask for what inserts are being used or to find the Optical Insert pairing code in the Health app.
• Setup may ask the user to ensure no Optical Inserts are installed before setup.
• Users can choose to continue setup even if issues are detected.

As Apple Insiders noted, the code snippets shared do not specify the order in which the prompts will appear. However, it seems that some of the prompts are related to the initial pairing process, while others may be related to switching or changing out the optical inserts.

Regardless of order, a pairing process may be required for Apple Vision Pro to know what optical inserts are being used in order to calibrate properly. Similar to how VR headsets need to be calibrated for each individual user. Thus, it won’t be as simple as taking the headset off one person and putting it on another.

User @M1Astra has also posted other threads about code referencing Apple Vision Pro. These threads include information about the headset’s intended age range (over 13 years old) and the fact that the Spatial Persona feature is still in beta, which means it may not be included in the initial release of visionOS.

Apple’s first mixed-reality headset, the Vision Pro, will be available for purchase in early 2024. It will cost $3,499 and will be available in the United States, Canada, and select European countries.
