QR codes on visionOS

Our app needs to scan QR codes (or a similar mechanism) to populate it with content the user wants to see.

Is there any update on QR code scanning availability on this platform? I asked this before, but never got any feedback.

I know that there is no way to access the camera (which is an issue in itself), but at least the system could provide an API to scan codes.

(It would be also cool if we were able to use the same codes Vision Pro uses for detecting the Zeiss glasses, as long as we could create these via server-side JavaScript code.)

This is not currently possible. Please file an enhancement request for such API using Feedback Assistant.

  • Well. I get the feeling that this is the standard answer here :-)

    Anyway, thanks for taking your time to respond. I just filed it as FB13799026 and also FB13799035 (for general access to the camera).

I was thinking about the same, but then I realized the image tracking can be used as some kind of alternative workaround at this point.

I tried it and I believe it should be good enough to just go with Image tracking.
