Apple files patent for extending Vision Pro hand gesture controls to iPhones, iPads, and Macs.

Apple has filed a patent application suggesting it may bring the hand gesture controls introduced with its Vision Pro headset to other devices such as iPhones, iPads, and Macs. The patent application, titled "Devices, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Using a Cursor to Interact with Three-Dimensional Environments," demonstrates how users could control their devices with hand gestures similar to those used in the Vision Pro. The technology aims to detect and interpret hand gestures, reject false positives, and potentially allow users to navigate their devices without touching the screen.
