The Apple Vision Pro uses a sneaky trick to hide visual artifacts (like the screen door effect). Bad lenses. Yes, you heard that right. The lenses in the headset are *purposefully* out of focus. The image below is a comparison of the Apple Vision Pro on top, with the Meta Quest 3 on the bottom. The slight blurring can give the image a more "natural" look, at least initially, especially for content like movies. However, it comes with an interesting side effect. Fatigue, especially when reading text. Many seasoned users of VR are noticing the Apple Vision Pro is more fatiguing than other headsets, as the human eye constantly hunts to try to get the image in focus, while never being quite able to. The theory of VR headsets becoming "monitor replacements" creates an interesting dilemma, the most comfortable image for long sessions would be extremely sharp. However, that comes at the expense of significant screen door effect. What do you think? Did Apple make the right move? Or should they have used more optically perfect lenses, increasing comfort but ruining the illusion?
