Some months ago I’ve talked you about a very interesting project in the AR world: Aryzon, the cardboard of augmented reality. It is an augmented reality viewer that tries to emulate what Cardboard has been for virtual reality: a cheap entry point for the technology. So, while Hololens costs $3000 to provide you a premium […]
Recently, while I was browsing for some fresh VR news, I came around with some posts referencing Microsoft Andromeda project. Andromeda (apart from being also the codename of the new OS for mobile) is a new mobile device that Microsoft is secretly designing: it should feature 2 displays that can be folded one over the […]
We all know what ARCore is and how interesting it is since it lets us enjoy augmented reality directly from our Android phones, as ARKit does with Apple phones. But we’re also very annoyed by the fact that ARCore can be used only with Samsung S8 and Pixel phones: what could be augmented reality for […]
After some boring weeks, last days in VR have been pretty crazy, with updates from almost any major platform! I thought to talk about these updates on my weekly newsletter (subscribe using the form on the right to receive a weekly recap of the best VR news!), but they’re too many and too important, so […]
Since a long time I’ve a lot of curiosity about Brain Computer Interfaces: I think that they’re the future of human computer interactions and I would really love to experiment with them, especially in conjunction with the technologies I love the most: Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality. The recent showcase of Neurable at SIGGRAPH 2017 […]
Every week I send to my newsletter subscribers an e-mail telling them the best XR news of the week (I call it the “VR Week Peek”). But… how do I keep myself informed about what happens in the AR/VR realm? I’ve already pointed you to a list of the best 50 VR websites, but reading […]
Yesterday for the first time I watched live a keynote by Apple. The reason was simple: some times ago I watched a video by Robert Scoble where he announced that Apple could completely disrupt the AR and VR market with the iPhone 8, because it could be the first device completely capable of AR and […]
Smartphone based Augmented Reality is the big trend of the moment, because thanks to frameworks like Apple ARKit and Google ARCore, it is possible for hundreds million users to experience augmented reality without the need of expensive AR glasses like HoloLens. In my opinion, this hype is a bit exaggerated, since AR on the smartphone […]
Google has decided to answer to all the hype Apple was having with ARKit releasing its own augmented reality framework, called ARCore. This is the third time a major company is announcing an augmented reality framework. The first has been Facebook, with its Facebook Camera; then came Apple with ARKit and now there is Google, […]
Two months ago I subscribed to Quora, the most famous platform for questions & answers. Why did I do this? Well, I could say that I did it because my heart was driven by the passion of helping others, but the sad reality is that I did that because every marketer suggests to go on […]
Yesterday I was just relaxing on facebook after lunch, watching funny cats GIFs… …when suddenly I stumbled upon a Robert Scoble’s post Reading this sentence I quite got shocked. If you don’t know who Robert Scoble is… well, he’s a smart AR/VR journalist and innovator… and if someone smart makes a bold announcement, well, I’m […]
