I’m back in Italy after having been a mentor at the XRCC in Berlin! My experience there has been great… maybe I’ll write something about it soon. But there are a lot of pieces of interesting XR news to talk about… so why should I speak about me now? 😀 Top news of the week The UploadVR […]
At AWE I have been able to try the demo of Doublepoint WowMouse, an application for your smartwatch that transforms it into a 3D mouse for XR.

AWE has come to an end. I’m spending my last night in LA and tomorrow (which will be “today” when the newsletter is published) I’m going to fly to Berlin to be a mentor at the XRCC hackathon. My experience at AWE has been great: I reached the goals I had set for myself before […]

Greetings from California! I’m writing this letter between Silicon Valley (East Palo Alto, to be exact) and Los Angeles because I’m moving to attend AWE!
