These days a group of Dutch guys have launched a very interesting Kickstarter campaign for a product called Aryzon. This product is intriguing and I bet that it could become quite popular among makers and AR/VR enthusiasts. But what is Aryzon? Well, it is the cardboard of augmented reality. We all know what the Cardboard […]
Last week has finished with a big boom for virtual reality: at Google I/O conference, Google has announced its upcoming Standalone headsets. In this post I’ll try to describe all the main information about this and all other AR/VR news they’ve announced… information that are splattered around dozens of posts around the web and that […]
In a previous post I highlighted the problems that current generation of augmented reality headsets have (if you haven’t read it, read it!). Today I want to show you the problems that can happen while showcasing an augmented reality application in an exhibition or such. On Friday I went to Novara to test a project […]
On Saturday I went to a confectionery next my house to buy some sweet stuff… it’s a classical Italian pastry shop: little, owned by a family, traditional and with super-tasty stuff all over the place. Sometimes it’s just relaxing to stay in such old-school places, smell the scent of food and forget all the *R […]
Yesterday there haven’t been many interesting news about the VR world, but my startup buddy Gianni sent me a super-interesting link that made me think a lot. The article I’m talking about is this one: it talks about Microsoft skipping HoloLens v2 developments to concentrate directly on version v3. The news is far from being […]
Just a little thought about today news that I found most interesting: Oculus is seriously starting an augmented reality division.

Furthermore, no one of the other […]
Microsoft is quite active on AR and VR field. About AR, that’s no secret that its HoloLens device is absolutely astonishing and works really well. I’ve tried it myself and I think that the stability of its “holograms” is incredible. In VR field, they recently announced that they will release cheap headsets for Windows 10, […]
Yesterday I started collaborating in a little project that uses HoloLens (with Andrea… do you remember the guy of presence vs immersion article?) and as every normal guy working with this new device, I started looking at Microsoft Academy videos and articles. First thing I discovered is that HoloLens requires you to change lots of […]
Just a quick article to help people that are desperate like I was yesterday. Yesterday I was implementing the develop-once-build-everywhere facility of our ImmotionRoom system: it’s a very nice menu where you can choose the headset you’re developing for and then it sets for you all settings, prefab and stuff so that you can build […]
At last Google Tango enters the VR (and AR) world. I was waiting for it since months, maybe years. And finally today, on UploadVR I found that it was happening. Ok, let me take a step back and clarify everything. What is Google Tango? Tango is an augmented reality platform that Google announced back in […]
