The latest Quest Pro software update, version 47 (v47), brings a bunch of new features to the popular mixed reality headset. Probably the most exciting development is Passthrough Backgrounds. With this addition, recordings made while wearing the headset now include footage from your physical environment which makes it almost like a wearable video camera! However, due to some hardware limitation and privacy concerns, passthrough on recording is reportedly inferior to even ten year old smartphones.
Besides this cool feature v47 also upgrades Quest’s home screen experience with Meta Avatars – instead of contoured translucent hands you now see its arms and torso in the setting. An experimental feature called ‘Background Audio Playback’ was added too though earlier versions contained basic support for audio from quite some time. Last but not least; although claimed in their announcement blog post there doesn’t seem any changes yet to Library filtering or search options at present.
