Pico is offering $ to experienced VR users to sign an NDA and report bugs in their upcoming headset. open.substack.com/pub/goodvr/p...

When you consider this work alongside the awesome volumetric ideas of @notsuspicioushq.bsky.social & @tovanbo.bsky.social it is like these developers are building for a mixed reality platform that isn’t architected (yet) just for these kinds of ideas. Platforms must shift to meet devs here.

A good first month for Good Virtual Reality. Please consider becoming a paid subscriber to support my work. I am producing independently for the first time in my life supported by individuals allowing me to do this: www.goodvirtualreality.com/p/good-virtu...

The first podcast from Good Virtual Reality is public now! Listen to Doug North Cook talk about learnings from 14 years of exploration in VR and the work he's doing today with Creature. www.goodvirtualreality.com/p/the-most-i...

Good Virtual Reality is nearly a month old and this is the first podcast episode talking with Doug North Cook about 14 years of work in VR. www.goodvirtualreality.com/p/the-most-i...

I saw Insidious in a screening room with more than a dozen others wearing Quest 3. Then I came home and chased the experience with 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple in Vision Pro. www.goodvirtualreality.com/p/a-saturday...

Out to the movies on a Saturday night in New York to watch Insidious as presented by True3D.

Oh, that makes more sense but actually makes me dramatically less interested in going. The roadblocks to VR adoption are everywhere you look and not being able to bring your own HMD to an event for enthusiasts is a big one.

Going to a physical movie theater tonight in NYC carrying my Quest 3 to the social movie screening. There’s just one problem.

VR developers often hack their own reality first to make time for their creation of space. www.goodvirtualreality.com/p/reality-ha...

I’ve talked with the Voices of VR podcast several times over the years between 2019 and 2026. Looking back at these conversations offers some easily forgotten details showing just how competitive this market is. open.substack.com/pub/goodvr/p...

Oculus and Framework Founder Nirav Patel: "VR was, and 14 years later still is, a category in which the fundamental use case that will stick and the audiences that will scale are unknown." www.goodvirtualreality.com/p/email-with...

What if your iPhone in hand was rendered as “spatial content” in RealityKit instead of seen with just in low resolution passthrough? (Take this a step further and what if your virtual iPhone was rendered as texture on top of the Vision Pro battery pack?) www.goodvirtualreality.com/p/vision-pro...

Frog Bog in Resonite! It changes with seasons and I like to run around with a really cute wanderer pet bsky.app/profile/kgpa...

this github issue lays it out nicely I think github.com/alvr-org/ALV... but honestly I'm gonna have to play with it to see what the exact limitations are. ALVR doesn't actually have a dynamic foveated transport yet but this would give more platforms to work on it with at least.

VRChat set a new record for concurrent users last weekend. A majority of people access the service in headset. open.substack.com/pub/goodvr/p...

The world of Asgard's Wrath 2. Hundreds of hours spent exploring that world. On my fourth run.

During the SANRIO_Vfes Super Kaguya-hime! event, VRChat set a new all-time high concurrent user record of 156,716 That beats our previous record by nearly 8000.
