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!)

How to install and uninstall unapproved apps on Oculus Quest using SideQuest

How to install and uninstall unapproved apps on Oculus Quest using SideQuest

One of the most discussed themes in the VR communities nowadays is the Oculus Quest content curation.

Oculus should change how it rejects apps for Quest

Oculus should change how it rejects apps for Quest

I’m writing my review on the Oculus Quest (it will be out tomorrow!) and I am so analyzing this headset from all the points of view. As one of the first developers for the Vive Focus Plus (since the 6 DOF devkit times), I am also able to evaluate all the pros and the cons […]

As soon as my Oculus Quest arrived, I immediately started playing with it and have fun with Beat Saber, Robo Recall, Creed and all the other titles. But then, as a developer, I felt the urge to understand how to develop my applications in Unity for the Oculus Quest. And I guess that if you […]
