# Apple Vision Pro for training programs

Mixed reality with the real room kept in view, steered by eyes and hands, for a scenario set where the work happens.

In a real room

## The room stays, the scenario arrives

A Vision Pro program keeps the ward, the gallery or the office in view and places the counterpart in it.

A ward scenario for practising conversation.

A participant in a museum hall scenario.

An atrium scenario for practising conversation.

Programs

## Which programs run on it

A Vision Pro program is a custom build: the scenario is written for the room it runs in.

A lounge scenario for welcoming a traveller.

### Custom mixed reality builds, set in your own rooms

[Clinical and patient conversations](https://peopletechrevolution.com/training/clinical-and-patient-conversations) at a real bedside, [inclusive service](https://peopletechrevolution.com/training/disability-awareness-and-inclusive-service) at a real counter, [induction](https://peopletechrevolution.com/training/induction-and-onboarding) on the real floor. The counterpart answers back where the work happens, and the debrief follows in the same room.

### What it does in a real room

Apple lists hands, eyes and voice as the inputs, so a learner looks at a choice and taps a finger to take it, with no controller to learn. Apple states "Up to 2.5 hours of general use" for the battery, which shapes a session plan into turns ([Apple Vision Pro tech specs](https://www.apple.com/apple-vision-pro/specs/)).

What mixed reality adds to practice is on [mixed reality at PTR](https://peopletechrevolution.com/xr/mixed-reality).

The fleet

## What a fleet needs

Vision Pro is fitted to the wearer, so a fleet is planned around named users or a fitting step at the door.

### A small fleet, fitted to each wearer

The external battery, the light seal sizes and Apple ID management are the IT questions; [headsets and equipment](https://peopletechrevolution.com/training/headsets-and-equipment) lists what to send before the kit arrives, and [governance](https://peopletechrevolution.com/about/governance) covers where the data lives.

An office scenario for practising conversation.

### Who chooses it

Innovation and digital leads with a scenario that has to happen in the real room, a museum floor, a showroom, a simulation centre, and a small group who will wear the same headset again and again.

[Innovation and digital leads](https://peopletechrevolution.com/training/for-innovation-and-digital-leads) and [clinical educators](https://peopletechrevolution.com/training/for-clinical-educators-and-simulation-leads) describe the fit from their side.

What PTR ships

## What PTR ships on it

PTR shows its guided walk-throughs on Vision Pro in mixed reality, the real room kept and the exhibit layer placed on it.

A cafe scenario for practising conversation.

### The same scenario, shown in mixed reality

A Vision Pro program starts as an [XR fast build](https://peopletechrevolution.com/fast-builds/xr-ar-mr-vr-builds): a block-out of your room, a walk-through in the headset, then a decision made on something people have stood in. The [Quest Pro](https://peopletechrevolution.com/xr/devices/meta-quest-pro) page shows the same walk-through in VR.

Questions

## What do buyers ask about Apple Vision Pro?

Short answers, each with a link to the page that answers in full.

A holographic ball passes behind a chair.

### Is Vision Pro a VR headset or a mixed reality headset?

Both: a scene can replace the room or keep it. PTR uses it where the real room is part of the lesson, so the mixed reality side leads. [What is mixed reality](https://peopletechrevolution.com/learn/xr/what-is-mixed-reality) explains the difference.

A figure partly hidden behind a chair.

### Can a Library title run on Vision Pro?

The [PTR VR Library](https://peopletechrevolution.com/xr/ptr-vr-library) titles ship on standalone headsets such as Meta Quest and PICO. A Vision Pro program is a custom build, scoped with you at planning.

A clinical scenario for practising conversation.

### How long can a session run?

Apple states "Up to 2.5 hours of general use" on a charge, so sessions run in turns with charging between them. [How a pilot runs](https://peopletechrevolution.com/training/how-a-pilot-runs) sets the rhythm of the day.

A facilitator and participant discuss a completed run.
