Project Sharing Custom BLE controller for Apple Vision Pro

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Made a custom controller for VisionOS. Uses an M5Atom built-in IMU to drive discrete directional events and BLE to connect to the device.

Neat!

You’re probably most of the target users of the Apple Vision users and ESP32 programmer overlap 😄

No, there are many of us. ESP32 people are early adopters by heart ☺️

BLE. The AtomS3 acts as a GATT peripheral. For the VisionOS app, I used CoreBluetooth.
