AR/VR developer, startupper, zombie killer. Sometimes I pretend I can blog, but actually I've no idea what I'm doing. I tried to change the world with my startup Immotionar, offering super-awesome full body virtual reality, but now the dream is over. But I'm not giving up: I've started an AR/VR agency called New Technology Walkers with which help you in realizing your XR dreams with our consultancies (Contact us if you need a project done!)

In a couple of days, I’m starting my trip to the Benelux region to enjoy United XR Europe, which will take place on December 8-10 in Brussels, Belgium. The organizers were so kind to organize for me a preview of five super cool companies that will be there among the 150+ exhibitors, so I could […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.12.01): Pico to launch a Vision Pro competitor in 2026, Cyber Monday’s XR deals are here, and more!

And talking about holidays… I hope all of you who celebrate it had a great Thanksgiving! For me ,this will also be a month of […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.11.24): Hyperscape spaces become multiplayer, The 8th Wall shuts down, and more!

I’m back in Italy, after a crazy week in Finland between MatchXR and Slush. And especially a weekend during which I discovered that my team won a prize at the latest development competition organized by Meta! I’m so excited and happy about that. But now there is no time to be excited anymore; it is […]

Rokid launches stylish glasses in collaboration with Bolon (but only in China for now)

There’s a piece of news the major XR magazines didn’t report last week, and I think it’s quite relevant to our space: Rokid has launched its new pair of smartglasses in China, built in collaboration with eyewear brand Bolon. Rokid X Bolon Rokid is one of the leading manufacturers of AR glasses and smart glasses. […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.11.17): Valve launches Steam Frame, Samsung to train 20,000 employees with Galaxy XR, and more!

I’ve landed in Helsinki to attend MatchXR and Slush. I’m a bit disappointed that there is no snow, but I hope that some will fall in the next days! This is going to be a crazy, busy week for me between the events, the blog articles, and the remote work I have to do, so […]

Steam Frame may be great, but it may not be a game changer for XR

Steam Frame may be great, but it may not be a game changer for XR

Today, Valve has finally announced the Steam Frame, its hybrid standalone/PCVR headset. It seems like a great device, but I’m honestly a bit disappointed because I don’t think it will be disruptive to our ecosystem. Let me explain why. Steam Frame In case you missed the news, I’ll briefly summarize: Valve has announced its new […]

The XR Week Peek (2025.11.03): Google partners with Magic Leap, Meta had an internal restructuring, and more!

The past week has not been the most exciting one in the XR space. After both Apple and Google fired their shots in the previous two weeks, nothing incredibly relevant happened. But these are pretty interesting times for me, at least: I shipped my project (fingers crossed), I’m traveling to Hamburg to speak at the […]
