It’s been a heavy period, but I managed to survive :P, and now I’m ready to travel again! Today I’m departing to go to France to do some business meetings (and offer a pain au chocolat to my colleague Fabio), and then I’ll get back to the USA to attend AWE 2022! Last year it […]
This has been a week full of interesting news. But before digging into them, let me show you the first episode of The Spatial Show, the comedy show about the metaverse organized by Ori Inbar in which I took part. If you watch the video, you can see me say stupid things about XR… well, […]
SXSW has been the best event I have participated in this year, and I have already talked about it in various articles (e.g. this post about the event, and this other one with some reviews). Looking at the backlog of my posts to write, I noticed that I had still some reviews from there I […]
I feel better than last week, so I’m back to business with the usual newsletter. But I’ve still to fully recover, so every hug you send me is still highly appreciated! I’m also sending good vibes to my friends in China who are facing lockdowns. I know the situation is not the best now, but I […]
Meta is currently the market leader in VR, and no company does even get close to its sales numbers.

I’ve been sick this weekend. I’m getting better, but I’ll need days to fully recover, I still feel like if I was hit by a train. I’m doing my best to work, and I don’t want you to miss this appointment with my news roundup, so I’ve prepared it the same… I just warn you […]

It’s been the first time I worked on such an ambitious conference, so let me tell you something more about it and about the lessons I’ve learned in […]
Two weeks ago I have been to Laval Virtual, one of the most important European exhibitions about immersive realities. I have already described to you two good experiences I had with XR Hardware (Lenovo AR glasses, and Actronika haptic suit), and today I want to close the topic Laval by telling you about two great […]
Today is a bit of a special day for this newsletter because this article you are reading is the 250th roundup about XR news I’ve written! If you make the calculation, it means that it is almost 5 years that every damn weekend I collect the best news of the week in AR and VR […]
