Today I wanted to learn something new. It’s years that I read about the “nits” of AR displays and why they should be meaningful for outdoor AR, but I never truly understood what they meant. I got they were a measure of brightness, but I couldn’t grasp the exact meaning. I was used to saying […]
I’m super-late with this newsletter because we of New Technology Walkers are working on some cool stuff for our game HitMotion: Reloaded! Be sure to check it out on App Lab in a few hours, even if you have already completed it in the past… 😉 And please, give it 5 stars, it’s super-important to have […]
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 […]
I love passthrough augmented reality, because it lets us create AR experiences with the VR headsets that we already own, plus it also opens up augmented reality to new possibilities, like wide-FOV vision or diminished reality experiences. You all know that Facebook has recently released Passthrough APIs to let developers create AR experiences on Quest […]
After some days of teasing, Chinese AR company Nreal has finally announced its latest AR glasses: Nreal Air. I would define them as the “GearVR of augmented reality”. Let me tell you why.

This one is the last AR/VR news roundup for this summer! Here in Turin, the sun is shining, but the temperature is getting colder, and autumn is coming too fast. I think I’ll miss the joys of summer (and all the trophies that Italy has won), but at least I’ll be able to enjoy again […]
After Venice VR Expanded has come to an end, I have finally had the time to experiment with Oculus Quest AR Passthrough. I’ll make a tutorial for you about it next week (I know, you can’t wait to make a cube in passthrough AR), and today I want to tell you my opinion about it. […]
大家好! These days are pretty hot here, but this doesn’t stop me from enjoying virtual reality. What I’ve not enjoyed is that SideQuest has removed The Unity Cube from its listing, stating that there were too many cubes there. I think that cubes are never enough… cubes are love, cubes are life. Before leaving to the […]
If I had to choose the most common question I’ve received in these 4 years on the blog, social media, and Quora, I would surely pick “How do I get started with virtual reality?”. Usually, the question is very vague and doesn’t even define exactly what is the sector of XR of interest. It comes […]
Today I have the pleasure of publishing an interview I had with Graham Atlee, a very smart guy that has developed the Triton Project, a DIY affordable AR headset with wide FOV and natural hands interactions! I think it’s a very interesting project and all the people in the communities should know about it, so […]
