Experiencing Vision Pro with Blind Filmmaker James Rath
In this episode of Double Tap on YouTube, Stephen Scott is joined by James Rath, also known as The Blind Filmmaker. They discuss Apple’s Vision Pro, a device that James has had the opportunity to experience firsthand.
James shares his initial skepticism about the product, but also his excitement for virtual reality (VR) and its potential for people with visual impairments.
He also discusses the potential for apps to use the Vision Pro’s pass-through cameras for magnification and object recognition, which could greatly benefit people with low vision. However, he mentions that developers currently do not have access to the cameras, which could limit the device’s potential for accessibility apps.
