CT scanner experts at Lumafield put the Apple Vision Pro under a special X-ray machine to reveal everything after iFixit disassembled the product in February and later removed the panel.
“Design priorities”
In fact, the company has its own scanner, Neptune, which it uses to scan everything from expensive Apple headphones to Heinz ketchup caps. In this case, they compared the interior of the $3,500 headset with the Meta Quest Pro and Meta Quest 3. They offer a video below, but also 3D images that you can flip and flip yourself.
In our cross-sections of the Apple Vision Pro, we discovered a product that prioritizes design. Everything inside the Vision Pro is angled to make the most of the available interior space without detracting from the exterior lines of the brushed aluminum frame and glass face panel. The main circuit board is built around a flexible PCB strip, and the electronics are packed at different angles.

You won't find any criticism of either product, instead they point to the Meta's design as efficient, and Apple's headphones as a “vision statement”: “Both Meta headphones demonstrate an amazing economy of means: they deliver the most by using the least Possibly. In many ways, the devices' frugal construction and value is as impressive an achievement as Apple's elegant vision.
This is how headphones are cooled
Lumafield covers all parts of the speaker, revealing that the Quest Pro uses both active and passive cooling using copper and two fans. The Quest 3 is less powerful and only has one fan and doesn't actually have a heatsink, while the Vision Pro has active cooling with small fans that cool both the chip and the board – the fans are placed tightly against the metal housing to activate passive cooling.
The Meta headset uses SLAM cameras to enable experimental hand tracking, while the Vision Pro has a more advanced system where you can control the interface not only with gestures, but also with your eyes. Therefore, infrared cameras and LiDAR scanners are needed And Real depth. In addition, we find cameras that look down and to the side to capture gestures. There is something called MEMS microphones that provide voice control via Siri.
