I got a package from VR Cover with some cool accessories for Oculus Quest 2 to review. Since they know I am working on a VR fitness game, they sent me the Fitness Facial Interface and some other nice add-ons for it. Let me tell you what have been my experience with these gadgets, telling […]
This has been a pretty interesting week for me, having spoken at XR Safety Week and Stereopsia, and having published two cool articles about creating innovative SteamVR controllers and using Application SpaceWarp in Unity to almost double the framerate of your application. But now, before starting the new week, it’s time to look back at the […]
At Facebook Connect 2021, Meta has announced Application SpaceWarp, a new solution to boost the framerate of Oculus Quest 2 applications up to +70%. These days I have finally managed to try it, so I can tell you everything that I have learned about it: What is it How does it work How to implement […]
Today is a special day in Italy when families prepare the Christmas Tree, so I decided to publish a very special post that is a big gift to the whole XR community. But the gift is not mine, but from the XR ergonomics expert Rob Cole, that has written an INCREDIBLE guest post about his […]
I guess all companies have finished their important announcements before US Thanksgiving and now we are in a calm moment where there is some news here and there, but nothing incredible. Probably we’ll hear new big shots fired at CES in January 2022. So yes, this roundup won’t be amazing… interesting, but not exciting. I know, […]
On the occasion of the XR Safety Week that will start next week, I had the pleasure of talking with Kristina Podnar, who, together with Kavya Pearlman, will be the head of the track about “Privacy & Safety and Digital Human Rights”. Since she is an expert on these themes, I asked her some questions […]
December, 6th will be the start day of XR Safety Week, an event that aims at fostering a healthy debate on some social themes surrounding XR, and at promoting safety, privacy, inclusion, and accessibility for everyone in our ecosystem. These are themes that have always been important to me, and that in my own small […]
Today I host a guest post from Immersive Reality, a UK-based company that immerses its users inside environments without the use of VR headsets, but projecting the images of the virtual worlds on the walls of a room. I’ve found it interesting because they also use this setup to help children with certain disabilities that […]
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope that you all American friends have celebrated it with your families and have eaten a lot of turkeys (or whatever vegan alternative), enjoying good times with your peers. If you were wondering, we in Italy do not celebrate Thanksgiving, but I would love one year to participate in its celebration hosted […]
One of my favorite demos at AWE has been with Ekto VR boots, which have probably been the craziest devices that I’ve tried during the expo… and I totally loved them for it! Ekto VR Locomotion in VR is still an unsolved problem. Apart from the software solutions (e.g. teleportation, smooth locomotion), there are a […]
Today I take a break from my posts about AWE to host a guest post by Dejan Gajsek, Content Marketing Manager at Circuit Stream. Dejan defines himself as “a huge marketing nerd”, that loves finding out what makes companies great and why. On his Linkedin profile, you can see that he has strong competencies in […]
