Throwback review: Meta 2 hands-on (and more!)

Thanks to my job as an XR consultant and blogger, I have had the pleasure of trying many AR and VR headsets. There are some that I miss experiencing, and one of my biggest regrets of the past was that I had never been able to try the now-defunct Meta 2 augmented reality glasses. This […]

Yesterday at the Venice VR Expanded festival, I finally managed to try “The MetaMovie”, an experience of improvisational theater in VR.
