Multi-Screen Feature

SpaceWalker enables multi-screen functionality by default. Open a new screen by clicking any icon to enter a web page or launch a mini app, and a new screen will be opened on the right side of the Home screen. You can view the Home screen again by moving your head to the left.

The most recently opened screen always appears in the middle of your view.

The Home screen can display 2 windows at the same time. If you open more than two windows, the windows open before returning to the dock, centered in the middle/bottom of your view.

The Dock

Move the laser beam to the bottom of the screen to interact with the Dock.

Minimized screens and mini apps appear on the Dock. Hover to see a preview message, select the screen you want to open, or open a mini app.

The toolbar is on the middle bottom of the screen.

Pin Mode on/off: Pin the screen in the current space position. Pin Mode is only available in fullscreen.

Minimize: Move the active screen to the Dock.

Ambient Mode: Ambient Mode minimizes the virtual screen to the corner of your vision so that you can watch your favorite series as you're walking or moving around the room. Ambient Mode is only available in fullscreen.

Fullscreen/Windowed: Switch between fullscreen and multi-screen.

Close: Close the screen.

Pin Mode

Pin Mode enables 3DoF head tracking for the XR Glasses. The screen you are currently viewing will be pinned in the current spatial position and remain there as you turn your head. Please note that Pin Mode is only available in fullscreen.

Ambient Mode

Ambient Mode is also exclusively available in fullscreen, and is not available during playback of 3D, spatial, or VR videos. Please note that Ambient Mode and Pin Mode cannot be enabled simultaneously. Enabling Ambient Mode will automatically disable Pin Mode, and vice versa.

When Ambient Mode is initially enabled, it will default to a placement at the bottom right corner, occupying 50% of the screen size.

To customize your preferences, access the settings panel located on the right side of the screen, which will expand upon the first activation of Ambient Mode.

You can select the screen placement by clicking on the following options:

Bottom Right

Bottom Left

Top Right

Top Left

Adjust the screen size by hovering the cursor over the slider and sliding it left or right. The available screen scale ranges between 30% and 60%.

SpaceWalker saves your preferences in Ambient Mode. To access preferences, simply click the arrow on the right side of the screen when Ambient Mode is enabled.

When viewing a video in full screen, you can toggle to Ambient Mode on the phone's screen.

Settings

Personalize the SpaceWalker on the Home screen.

Head Tracking: Navigate with head motions.

News Widget: Show today's top news on the Home screen.

Brightness/Volume: Hover the cursor over the slider, then click on either side to respectively increase or decrease the brightness/volume of the XR Glasses.

Head Tracking is disabled when directly connecting the XR Glasses to the phone.

These settings change the brightness and volume on the XR Glasses and won't affect your phone screen's brightness.

Shortcuts and Bookmarks on the Home screen

You can easily visit some popular websites on the Home screen.

These streaming services (Hulu, Pluto TV, the Roku Channel, and more) are web-based rather than running as applications installed on your phone. The shortcuts provide access to streaming services that have been adapted and verified by the VITURE team. Some streaming services, such as Netflix, cannot be accessed through a web browser, which means you cannot use them through SpaceWalker. We are committed to adapting and offering more streaming services in the future.

Don't forget to add your favorite bookmarks to the Home screen in the Browser.

Mini Apps

The SpaceWalker app provides 4 mini apps for XR experience: Photo Gallery, Browser, Media Player, and Doc Reader.

The mini app shortcuts are on the Home screen, and can also be found in the Dock at the bottom of the screen.

Photo Gallery

Photo Gallery allows you to explore your photo library in XR. Browse your albums or view media by the media type. Experience a curated collection of precious memories from your photos and stunning spatial videos recently captured on your iPhone 15 Pro.

Enter Photo Gallery

To enter the Photo Gallery, position the laser at the bottom of the screen and click on the ‘Photo Gallery’ icon.

Request Access to Photos

Upon opening the Photo Gallery for the first time, SpaceWalker will request permission to access your photos. Granting full access unlocks all features within the Photo Gallery. Limited access allows viewing only accessible photos selected by you.

Not granting SpaceWalker access to your photos will restrict access to any Photo Gallery features.

Select Albums

The album selection page organizes albums based on media type, currently supporting:

Selfies

Portrait

Screenshots

You can access custom albums under the ‘My Albums’ tab.

To view the contents of an album, simply click on it to enter gallery view.

Navigation and Viewing

Once in gallery view, all photos and videos within your albums will be displayed.

If you're using the USB-C XR Charging Adapter, Pin Mode will be enabled automatically. This allows you to view the entire screen by moving your head up and down.

Scroll to load more photos by sliding a finger up or down on your phone's screen.

Navigate between photos by clicking on the icons at the sides of the photo, or sliding left or right on your phone.

When viewing panoramas, adjust your perspective by moving your head or sliding left or right on the phone. For panoramas, navigate between photos by clicking on the icons at the sides of the panorama photo.

For videos, control playback on the XR Glasses' display.

By default, videos in the Photo Gallery play in 2D. To properly view spatial videos, 3D SBS videos, or VR videos, select the corresponding playback mode. SpaceWalker currently supports:

Spatial

3D SBS (Left/Right, 3840×1080)

360° VR, 180° VR, 3D Top/Bottom 360 VR, 3D Left/Right 180 VR

Playing a spatial video in Photo Gallery will direct you to the Media Player with a playlist containing all spatial videos in the current album. The playlist loops, allowing you to tap Next or Back on the phone's playback.

Exit Photo Gallery

To exit the gallery and return to the album selection page, click the 'Back' button within the gallery view or tap the 'Back' button on your phone.

Browser

Browser is for web browsing just like any other browser. It has basic controls like back, forward, and refresh. It also allows you to set Bookmarks and view your browsing history.

Click the star icon to bookmark this webpage.

Click the + icon on the Bookmarks page to add favorite bookmarks to the Home screen.

Web Video Detection

Web Video Detection is a feature introduced in SpaceWalker v1.2.0. When using SpaceWalker, the application automatically detects videos playing on web pages, displaying a button labeled "Open in Player".

You have the option to choose the video format, and upon clicking the button (VR, 1-Click 3D, Media Player) and transfer the currently playing video to SpaceWalker's internal player for playback.

VR: Experience a VR video with 3DoF head tracking.

Switch playback modes on your phone. For 3DoF head tracking, it is essential to connect to the USB-C XR Charging Adapter.

1-Click 3D: Watch a spatial video or 3D side-by-side (SBS) video.

While streaming platforms have many side-by-side 3D videos, their resolutions may vary. SpaceWalker’s internal player and VITURE One XR Glasses support native Full SBS 3D video (3840×1080), ensuring the enjoyment of most SBS 3D videos on the XR Glasses.

When using SpaceWalker on an iPhone 15 with the USB-C XR Charging Adapter, the XR Glasses automatically switch to 3D Mode upon detecting a 3D video. However, when directly connecting the XR Glasses to iPhone 15, you need to manually enable 3D Mode on the XR Glasses when watching a SBS 3D video.

Media Player: Play the video directly in SpaceWalker's internal player.

Media Player

The Media Player now supports:

2D videos

Side-by-side 3D videos

Spatial videos captured by iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max

360° VR, 180° VR, 3D Top/Bottom 360° VR, 3D Left/Right 180° VR videos

2D/3D SBS

In the '2D/3D SBS' tab, select video files from your phone using Photos or Files for playback.

When playing 2D videos, the Media Player will not automatically enter full screen but will play according to the curent screen's status.

If you choose to play a 2D video in full-screen, you can enable or disable Ambient Mode on the phone playback controls.

Click 'YouTube 3D SBS Videos' to watch Full SBS (3840×1080) videos on YouTube, or click the 'Play the sample video' button to experience the 3D sample video.

When SpaceWalker detects a full SBS (3840 × 1080) video, the Media Player automatically enters full screen and playback controls are displayed on the phone screen.

If you connect the USB-C XR Charging Adapter, the XR Glasses will also switch to 3D Mode automatically. However, if you directly connect the XR Glasses to the iPhone 15, or SpaceWalker does not detect a Full SBS video, you will need to manually activate the 3D Mode on the XR Glasses.

Spatial Videos

Spatial videos are captured using the Main and Ultra Wide cameras on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max while in landscape orientation. Users will be able to relive life's precious moments with remarkable depth on Apple Vision Pro starting early next year. However, you can experience your Spatial Videos now with VITURE One XR Glasses and SpaceWalker app!

How to Record a Spatial Video

First, turn on "Spatial Video for Apple Vision Pro" in your camera settings. You can find it at Settings > Camera > Formats.

Next, open your camera and toggle on the new option that looks like a tiny VR headset (example below). Your camera settings will automatically change to the necessary settings for recording spatial video, including forcing your camera into landscape.

Record your video. Time to get creative — try it out now with whatever you happen to have around you!

The new icon floats above your camera modes and turns yellow to indicate when it's on.

Now Enjoy Your Cinematic Masterpiece On VITURE One XR Glasses

Open Media Player in SpaceWalker, in the 'Spatial Video' tab, select the spatial videos you just filmed.

If you are unable to locate spatial videos, navigate to Albums and select 'Spatial' under Media Types.

When using the USB-C XR Charging Adapter, your XR Glasses will switch to 3D Mode automatically. If directly connected to the iPhone, long press the short button on the left arm of your XR Glasses to switch to 3D Mode.

VR

In the VR 360, you can also select VR videos for playback through Photos and Files.

You can navigate to 'YouTube VR Videos' below to watch VR videos available on the internet, or click 'Play 360 VR sample video' or 'Play 180 VR sample video' for a preliminary experience.

Currently, the Media Player supports:

360° VR videos

180° VR videos

3D Top/Bottom 360° VR videos

3D Left/Right 180° VR videos

For the complete 3DoF experience, you'll need to connect the USB-C XR Charging Adapter to your iPhone 15 / 15 Pro.

Playing VR videos will automatically enter full screen, with playback controls on the phone screen. You can switch playback modes, fast forward/rewind by 10 seconds, play/pause, drag the playback progress, control the volume and brightness of the XR Glasses, adjust the FOV (Field of View), reset the view, and exit playback.

Doc Reader

Doc Reader (Doc Preview in v1.1.1 or earlier versions) is made for viewing documentation. It supports Pages, Numbers, Keynote, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files.

Just like the Media Player, click the folder icon and select a file on the phone. The documentation is read-only and cannot be edited in the SpaceWalker app.

On-Screen Menu

Aside from the XR Glasses' Settings, there is a menu button on the top left of the phone's screen for updating the adapter and changing the configuration.
