Seriously? Do they scan all the data of your face and map it out or do they smooth you out? The people in the marketing material were all very bland looking models and actors and they also haven't let any journalist try it yet as far as I know.
 
I’m just gonna scan a picture of Henry Cavill so it thinks I’m him and people think I’m fine af when i face time
 
This is a great question. I can imagine people really not liking the way they a portrayed when in fact, it’s just how they look.

I'm saying will the Vision Pro be able to render a person like that? What about beards and such?

Sort of on this subject about representing the human form, I have been wondering about something for some time.

Let's say it's a hot day, you have finished work, and just want to come home, strip off in the privacy of your own home, and use Vision Pro.

Regardless of whether you are Male or Female.
Let's say you look in the mirror in your bedroom, or look down at your body.
What is the Vision Pro going to render?

If you are male, visiting the bathroom for a wee, and you need to look down (naturally) then what's going to be on the screens?

Is Apple going to Blur out certain parts of your body when it renders your AR surroundings?
And what about your partner who is also hot and just chilling with you in the privacy of your own home. Is Vision Pro going to blur areas of their body from your view also?

I think in the case of body it’s more of an avatar thing. I don’t think it actually scans the body.
 
Schedule yourself a haircut for next Thursday, stay hydrated, and try to get 8 hrs sleep that night 😄

I'm curious if the clothes shown in the demos are from the actual clothing the person was wearing when they did the scan or if that is an update-able thing. Like maybe I should not do my scan in my PJs?

This is a good question because historically black people have not been represented well in these types of technologies.

As a hirsute guy, I too wonder how it will handle beards!

You joke, but my haircut is scheduled for 1pm Friday and Vision Pro collection scheduled for 4pm 😂

If Apple ever allows apps to create personas, people will be beating the doors down and throwing money at those apps. Being able to create arbitrary personas will be huge (talking pets, aliens, cartoon characters, etc. ...).
 
There will almost certainly be a plastic surgery app that lets you 'refine' your avatar to be the best you, that you can be!

Better than exercise or healthy living, pure unadulterated CGI so we cant stand ourselves just that little bit more! :D
