Keyboard & Trackpad for Apple Vision Pro

Over the last few months, in preparation for Apple Vision Pro, I started a quest to find a good portable keyboard + trackpad setup for the headset. After testing out a wide range of those from the market, here are my findings. Hope it helps people looking for the same.

The impression is based on testing out the keyboard/trackpad with iPadOS, as it shares the similar infrastructure for external input support as visionOS.

After testing on real hardware, visionOS disabled support for any non-Apple trackpad... So feel free to ignore everything about non-Apple trackpad here.

Displaying HDMI sources on Apple Vision Pro

While it's possible to stream most content to Apple Vision Pro directly over the internet, having the ability to use Apple Vision Pro as an HDMI display can still be useful.

Since Apple Vision Pro does not support connecting to an HDMI input directly or using an HDMI capture card, we have to be a little creative to make this work. NDI provides the ability to stream HDMI content over a local network with really low latency, and it works great with Apple Vision Pro.

This page shows the setup I’m using.

Cloud Gaming on Apple Vision Pro

Cloud Gaming is a great way to enjoy graphically demanding games on Apple Vision Pro.

Since Safari on visionOS does not support PWA mode, here is how you can access cloud gaming services on Apple Vision Pro.

What’s needed

A compatible game controller

Introduction

It is possible for a server to have mixed success and error responses when dealing with a single or multiple entities at once. For instance, when generating collections of resource entities there is a chance that the GET operation results in a partial success. That is because each entity can generate errors independently from the other. In such scenarios the server MAY respond to the request with a partial success response.

Servers and clients MUST negotiate support for and use of the Partial Success extension as described in the base specification using partialsuccess as the name of the extension.

If you don't like or need the kdc process on Mac OS X, which opens TCP port 88 to the world, you can disable it with launchctl.

Disable:

sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.Kerberos.kdc.plist

Enable:

sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.Kerberos.kdc.plist
