A year of VR experiments 👍👍 Thanks for enjoying ❤️. More to come in 2021!

We've just done a fascinating VR investigation - exploring creating the same experience in both Unity and Unreal... in VR and non-VR. Read on for our summary

The XR Interaction Toolkit For Unity Version 2.3 was released 🥳 and Unity pushed some of their most requested features. 📌 If #VR and #AR development sounds interesting for 2023 keep reading... 🧵Thread 👇

Immersive internet and trusting AI are in the list

I am almost positive a similar resource exists (really feeling the tip-of-my-tongue sensation), but I couldn't find it so I felt compelled to publish this repo of VR research resources: github.com/JashoBell/vr-e…

Recommended webinar on how we can measure human behavior in VR. @Varjo and OpenBCI explaining how non-invasive sensing with Galea enable understanding of human cognition with data science, physiological data, and immersive applications. youtu.be/KzGAC6WRDPg?t=…

We are demanding more from #XR technology than video game consoles: to be realistic, support work, and understand users' environments. Yet, they need to account for hardware challenges regarding rendering, connectivity, weight, and battery life. matthewball.vc/all/why-vrar-g…

Just recorded a demo of automatically converting 2D images into 3D mesh with a balloon/lego style. Still many trivial work need to be done on the UI. Icons and stickers in the demo are from Flaticon #webgl #raytracing #generative #voxel

Your memories — how you remember them

This 200-page report by the European Commission summarizes the opportunities and challenges of #XR in #health and #education. It also analyzes the potential of the European XR market. Glad to be part of the team that prepared the report.

Realtime emotion detection with #AI is an impressive technological advancement, but can it truly capture the complexity of human emotions? What do you think? Credit: Rondinelli Morais #innovation #artificialintelligence #machinelearning

There is a paradigm shift from 2D screens to 3D worlds As a VR/AR dev, you need to understand the evolution of metrics Users are moving from content CONSUMPTION to content PARTICIPATION Traditional analytics are NOT sufficient for capturing the full scope of immersive content

Evolution of passthrough over the past 4 years in 1 minute. The rate at which virtuality is becoming indistinguishable from reality is amazing. HCI researchers have a serious call to action to design for possible immersive futures. #virtualreality #passthrough #possiblefutures

1/7 For the past decade, our team at Meta Reality Labs (previously CTRL-labs) has been dedicated to developing a neuromotor interface. Our goal is to address the Human Computer Interaction challenge of providing effortless, intuitive, and efficient input to computers.
