Apple has also showcased accessibility advancements such as AI-driven VoiceOver descriptions, an improved Accessibility Reader, on-device video captioning, and a new FaceTime API for sign language interpretation. VisionOS introduces features like Power Wheelchair Control, Vehicle Motion Cues, and face gesture support.
