Starting July 18, Apple Vision Pro users will have access to an array of new series and films, all captured using Apple Immersive Video technology.
According to Apple, this innovative new format utilizes 3D video recorded in 8K with a 180-degree field of view and Spatial Audio, providing viewers with an unparalleled sense of realism and immersion.
The new offerings include “Boundless,” a series that transports viewers to extraordinary destinations from the comfort of their homes. Premiering at 6 p.m. PT on July 18 with the episode “Hot Air Balloons,” the series will continue with “Arctic Surfing” in the fall, taking viewers on an icy adventure north of the Arctic Circle.
In August, the second installment of the nature documentary series “Wild Life” will be released, showcasing the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya, where orphaned elephants thrive under the care of their keepers.
Later in the year, the series will dive deep into the waters of the Bahamas, bringing viewers face-to-face with apex predators and other fascinating marine life.
“Elevated,” an aerial travel series set to premiere in September, will take viewers on a breathtaking journey over volcanoes, waterfalls, and other natural wonders in Hawaii. Subsequent episodes will feature the stunning autumn landscapes of New England.
Music enthusiasts can look forward to an immersive experience featuring The Weeknd, set to premiere exclusively on Apple Vision Pro later this year.
Additionally, the first scripted short film captured in Apple Immersive Video, “Submerged,” will debut this fall.
