Passthrough improvements Passthrough is the fundamental mixed reality capability that allows users to comfortably view and interact with the physical world while wearing a headset. Today we are announcing a number of improvements to the passthrough experience that will roll out to all users on Quest 3 with the v64 release. Improved resolution We have improved the perceived resolution for passthrough by optimizing the passthrough pipeline. This makes it easier for users to see finer details and read smaller text in the real world - such as notifications on a smartphone screen. Improved image quality We have fine tuned the camera processing pipeline to improve color, exposure, contrast and dynamic range in passthrough. This makes color passthrough better match the real world. We have also reduced graininess (aka image noise) in lower light conditions making for an overall more comfortable passthrough experience in a range of lighting conditions. Update We wanted to provide an update regarding the scoped storage fix. Although it was implemented in v.63, we also wanted to share that Google has published guidelines for managing all files on a device that supports scoped storage: https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/manage-all-files#all-files-access These guidelines offer valuable information on permissions and APIs that application developers can use to maintain the same level of file management capabilities as before the scoped storage fix was introduced. We encourage you to consider these guidelines when updating your apps for optimal results.Meta Quest build v63 release notes
