Ever wished you could take your desktop environment with you in a more immersive way? Imagine controlling your PC or Mac directly from your Apple Vision Pro, transforming it into a dynamic extension of your workspace. With Duet's latest update, mirroring or extending your desktop is not only possible but also seamless and intuitive. This integration not only boosts your productivity but also opens up a new realm of possibilities for how you interact with your digital space.

Step-by-Step Guide to Using Duet with Apple Vision Pro

Step 1: Ensure Your Equipment is Ready

‍Before you begin, make sure that your Apple Vision Pro and your Mac or PC are updated to the latest software versions. This ensures compatibility and performance stability. Also, ensure that both your desktop or laptop and your Apple Vision Pro are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

Step 2: Install Duet on Your Computer and Vision Pro

‍Download and install the Duet application from Duet Display's website. Make sure to choose the version that corresponds with your operating system. Also, install Duet’s app specifically designed for Apple Vision Pro to ensure optimal functionality.

Step 3: Launch Duet on Both Devices

‍Open Duet on your computer and on your Apple Vision Pro. On your desktop application, you’ll find options to either extend or mirror your screen. Choose the one that best suits your needs:

• Extend: This option adds the Apple Vision Pro as an additional display, effectively giving you more screen space.
• Mirror: This selection duplicates your existing screen onto the Vision Pro, ideal for sharing your screen with others or presenting.

Step 4: Configure Your Display Settings

‍Once connected, you can adjust the resolution and orientation settings through your computer’s standard display settings. This customization allows you to optimize the display for your specific tasks, whether it's detailed creative work that requires higher resolution or general multitasking.

Step 5: Use Eye Tracking for Enhanced Control (Optional)

‍If your Apple Vision Pro supports eye tracking, Duet offers the ability to control the cursor using this technology. This can be a game changer for accessibility and can also provide a more ergonomic way to interact with your desktop.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Connection Issues: Ensure both devices are on the same network. Restart both devices if necessary to reset network settings.

Performance Lag: Check if your computer and Apple Vision Pro are meeting the recommended hardware specifications. Reduce the resolution for better performance if necessary.

Display Configuration: If the display isn’t arranged correctly (e.g., the mouse doesn’t move naturally from one screen to the other), revisit your display settings to adjust the orientation.

Conclusion

Extending or mirroring your desktop to Apple Vision Pro using Duet opens up a realm of possibilities for enhancing productivity and making your workflow more dynamic. Whether you're a professional seeking more digital real estate or a presenter needing to share high-quality visuals, Duet and Apple Vision Pro make it simple and effective.
