Vision Pro Travel Mode issues while on a ship

I’ve been testing my Vision Pro while at work offshore on a ship. Initially, during smooth seas, it worked normally without needing Travel Mode turned on. However, once the vessel began pitching, rolling, yawing, and heaving, I ran into issues with windows holding position on screen or the device not displaying anything except the live-view (passthrough) background.


I turned on Travel Mode, sat in a static position, and still experienced issues with open apps disappearing and a warning pop-up, stating that I needed to remain still and not move around. Sometimes the windows shifted minutely (and randomly) and other times open windows would suddenly move far off my center of vision. Occasionally, hand gestures will not work while the Travel Mode warning pop-up is present, or gestures won’t register when trying to open Control Center or an app. Very frequently, all windows will disappear and reappear in different locations in rapid-fire succession.


I’ve tried rebooting the Vision Pro multiple times, but that doesn’t seem to affect it sensing motion. In calmer seas, I experience fewer issues, but rough seas make the device unusable.


Are there any settings or suggestions for remedying this? I bought it for work and off-shift movies, but so far I can’t use it for either unless the seas are calm.


Thanks in advance for your attention.
