Apple’s newest visionOS 26.2 developer beta delivers small but meaningful upgrades — especially for creators, stylus users, and anyone following app optimization on Vision Pro.Primary Source: Apple Developer Documentation — https://developer.apple.com/documentation/visionos-release-notes/visionos-26_2-release-notesKey Details 1. Logitech Muse Stylus Support   - The Muse now communicates more consistently with VisionOS.   - Pressure and button readings are normalized — meaning drawing, writing, and sculpting feel smoother and more predictable across apps.2. App Performance Tracking Fixes   - Apple’s “Instruments” tool correctly reports Swift app performance again.   - Developers can spot memory leaks and sluggish code with better accuracy.3. Subscription Testing Enhancements   - Simulated renewals and re-joins for paid plans in Xcode work reliably.   - Known delay: subscription status changes may still take up to 24 hours to refresh.4. TV App SharePlay Limitation   - SharePlay for DRM-protected shows/movies temporarily unavailable.   - Apple has identified the issue and plans a future fix.Email: ThePodTalkNetwork@gmail.comWebsite: ThePodTalk.netYouTube: YouTube.com/@VisionProFiles

Marty talks about a new enterprise study that will use the AVP as a means for collecting EEG waves from people with neurological disorders, allowing them to communicate through the device.    “This Startup Wants to Put Its Brain-Computer Interface in the Apple Vision Pro” – Wiredhttps://www.wired.com/story/this-startup-wants-to-put-its-brain-computer-interface-in-the-apple-vision-pro/Key Points1. Who Cognixion is- A California-based startup focused on non-invasive BCIs (EEG-based), avoiding surgical implants.- Its mission is to enable communication for people with ALS, paralysis, and other conditions that limit speech.- Previously built the dedicated Axon-R headset, tested with ALS patients.2. Vision Pro Integration- Cognixion is preparing a clinical trial with ~10 participants using a Vision Pro modified with their custom EEG headband.- The system detects visual fixation and attention patterns so users can select items on-screen by focusing on them.- A neural-computing pack worn at the hip processes the brain-signal data.3. Role of AI- Cognixion uses per-user generative-AI models trained on the user’s prior communication to predict words or phrases.- In Axon-R trials, participants reached near-conversational communication speeds during multi-hour weekly sessions.4. Opportunities & ChallengesAdvantages:- Non-invasive → less risk, potentially faster adoption.- Leverages a mainstream headset (Vision Pro) and its spatial-computing ecosystem.- AI support can help overcome the low signal resolution of non-invasive EEG.Challenges:- EEG remains less precise than implanted BCIs, so decoding speed and reliability must improve.- The hardware still involves extra components (headband, hip pack) and must be ergonomic and socially acceptable.- Regulatory hurdles: moving from small clinical trial to FDA-approved assistive-tech product.We’ll revisit this topic in an upcoming Vision ProFiles episode with more expert insights and discussion.Remember to follow the live stream at YouTube.com/@VisionProfiles on Monday nights at 9 PM EST, or catch the recording later on YouTube, or subscribe to the audio version on your favorite podcast platform.Email: ThePodTalkNetwork@gmail.comWebsite: ThePodTalk.NetYouTube: YouTube.com/@VisionProFiles
