Speculation mounts over the potential launch of a new Apple Pencil, coinciding with the anticipated release of updated iPad Pro and iPad Air models slated for April.
Speculation is rife regarding the potential expansion of Apple Pencil compatibility beyond iPads, with whispers suggesting a forthcoming version of the accessory may find a home with Apple's Vision Pro headset.
According to MacRumors, Apple has conducted internal trials on a novel Apple Pencil equipped with visionOS support. This development could pave the way for users to wield the Apple Pencil seamlessly with drawing applications on the Vision Pro, including popular tools like Freeform and Pixelmator.
While specific project details remain elusive, one conceivable scenario involves users harnessing the Apple Pencil to sketch on surfaces like desks, with their creations manifesting within the visionOS application. Such an innovation promises to transform one's surroundings into a sprawling canvas, complete with nuanced pressure and tilt sensitivity.
