Apple AR: Immersion VR Turns Itself into a Pickle with Latest Rick & Morty ARKit Creation

The developers at Immersion VR are clearly fans of both Apple's ARKit and Rick & Morty, as the company has shared its second demo in as many weeks of the augmented reality platform that is influenced by the animated sci-fi series.

This time, the payoff is huge. Immersion VR brings us ... Pickle Rick! Boom! Big reveal.

In a pair of videos posted via Twitter, Pickle Rick, in the "rat suit" the character assembled in the episode that bears his name, emerges in an anonymous restroom and cavorts about, shouting several of his catchphrases, along with a few of his non-pickle catchphrases. He repeats the feat on a beach. (Note: both videos contains some mild NSFW language.)

To quote the show, "Stop digging for hidden layers and just be impressed."

It's unclear how many Rick & Morty characters Immersion VR needs to re-create via ARKit before Adult Swim hires them.
