Hands-on Ultraleap Stratos: feel the touch in XR without gloves!

Hands-on Ultraleap Stratos: feel the touch in XR without gloves!

In a few hours I’ll take a flight to go to the US to attend (and be a speaker at) AWE. I was thinking about my experience there last year, and I realized that I never talked to you about my amazing experience in Ultraleap offices in the Bay Area. In particular, I never told […]

The XR Week Peek (2022.05.16): Meta teases Cambria, Google shows new AR features, and more!

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, […]

The XR Week Peek (2022.05.09): Meta to release four VR headsets, NFT sales are going down, and more!

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 and the next 24 months crucial for its leadership

Meta and the next 24 months crucial for its leadership

Meta is currently the market leader in VR, and no company does even get close to its sales numbers. The Quest 2 is a great gaming machine offered at a ridiculous price, and it has totally crushed the competition.

The XR Week Peek (2022.05.02): Meta predicts the metaverse for 2030 and beyond, Snap launches a drone, and more!

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 […]
