SoloTop Dev for the Apple Vision Pro Developer strap is now available! I also now added a new orange color variant, which I must say looks rather striking.

The Apple Vision Pro just got a bit more comfortable without looking like a hack job. My SoloTop adapter is now available on Etsy! I both Print & Ship and 3D Print Files available for sale.

Have finalized the fit, material, and finish of the v1 SoloTop for the Vision Pro, a more native looking Solo Knit top strap adapter. It’s very comfortable! Will be posting store links in the next few days! (Both 3D printable files and printed/shipped from me). #VisionPro

It still bothers me a little that the top strap scrunches up a little and doesn’t lay perfectly flat against my head. Will tilt the strap back a few more degrees.

Since my last post I’m now on v4 of the SoloTop top strap adapter for the Vision Pro. Slimmed down the adapter even further, canted the strap clips inward a little, moved the hinge point forward, and lowered the strap as far as I could. I’m getting very close! 🧵

Once I add the next few tweaks I’d definitely consider this a pretty viable & convenient comfort increase. Only having to rotate two small knobs directly next to each other is so smooth. Props to the solo knit strap team.

better scratch resistant. Will also end up being a nice grey. Most of the form submissions have been leaning towards grey anyways, and I think I like that color the most anyways, so it works out. The black one in the pictures is just for prototypes at the moment.

I also better reinforced the left clip that slides over the power connector. Much more rigid now. Some people were asking about material strength. Currently I’m using Siraya Blu Obsidian and it’s very strong. Will be moving to a mix of Nylon Mecha & Nylon Black for….

SoloTop prototype v2. v1 has a couple small issues that others pointed out early; top strap too high & too vertical. v2 rotated by 20° & lowered ~1cm. Still not enough as you can see in the pics, but still more comfortable. 🧵

Inspired by u/grimdar on Reddit, I decided to make a more native looking Solo Band top strap adapter that I'm calling the SoloTop. Currently post processing some engineering-grade resin prints and will be testing shortly. Would anyone be interested in a set?. #VisionPro

"How can XR naturally empower our daily lives such that we hardly notice it exists?". The following prototype is my recent attempt at exploring that very question. Interested in a deeper dive?. #xr #mr #ar #meta #quest #questpro #apple #metaverse
