There must be more fun ways to 'summon weapons' than placing it in a scabbard or 2D menus. If hand tracking is the direction, interaction should feel physical and fast. The piece of media I drew inspiration from was Full Metal Alchemist. #SpatialComputing #Unity #MixedReality #InteractionDesign #AR

Big VR titles are going to be a thing of the past We'll see a return to a natural growth curve in the hands of hobbyist and true believers, a la pre-2014. Smaller, weirder VR. Meta subsidized VR to reach millions, so I'm thankful VRChat growth always fun to watch #VR #XR

Testing Meta's camera passthrough! Used Pl@ntNet API and a few others to identify plants around me and chat with them! Overall, a really fun test Also, anybody going be be at AWE2025? I'd love to meet some people!! #XR #MR #AI #Meta #Quest3

So Meta has caved and given camera access to devs now. This was a no-brainer in terms of utility, but society so poorly prepared for such lack of privacy. #XR

I think once MR takes off, the 'metaverse' becomes more viable. Mixing virtual obkectd into our real world makes people consider them 'more real' #XR #metaverse

This was an experiment for the Meta Hackathon last year where we turned your voice into instrument flowers. It netted us the win. It was silly fun #XR

People ask me why XR chatting is better than facetime. The answer is simple : I can huck things at my friends if they make terrible puns in XR #XR

I feel like the loneliness epidemic will only accelerate. How do we leverage XR to solve this? I loved 'Where Thoughts Go' #XR

XR is a deeply human piece of tech, as the interface is our bodies. Using it to drive social connection is the next big dream #XR

The obstacle for MR+AI is privacy. But once it gives us an edge in dating, work, or self-actualization, we'll give it all up. How do we own our data. #XR #AI

MR+AI is the future. AR glasses get full access to our attention and world. AI to contextualize, summarize, and learn. #XR #AI #Smartglass
