Apple tests Apple Pencil compatible with Vision Pro

The new, more affordable Apple Pencil is available to order in the U.S. and 32 other countries and regions beginning this week.
Apple is testing a new Apple Pencil model that supports visionOS which would allow the Apple Pencil to be used with drawing apps on the Vision Pro such as Freeform and Pixelmator, MacRumors reports citing “a source familiar with the matter.”
Joe Rossignol for MacRumors:

No specific details are known about this project, but one possibility is that users would be able to draw with the Apple Pencil on a desk or another flat surface, and the drawing would appear in the open visionOS app. This would essentially turn a person’s surroundings into a giant canvas, complete with pressure and tilt sensitivity.
Apple Pencil compatibility with the Vision Pro would also require updated software, but it is unclear which version might add support. The first beta of visionOS 1.2 will likely be made available to developers as early as this week, and Apple is expected to announce visionOS 2 at its annual developers conference WWDC in June.

MacDailyNews Take: Clearly, support for Pencil input would be an excellent addition for Visio Pro users.
