⛳️ Tiny Golf - A Very Cool Meta Horizon Start Developer Competition Submission! Mixed Reality games are challenging because they must adapt to real-world spaces with dynamic content, but they don’t have to be complex. Tiny Golf is a great example, using a minimalistic aesthetic and 🙌 hand-tracking pinch-and-pull gestures to launch the golf ball. I hope MR/VR games like this inspire many of you to build, there is just so much opportunity with XR today and 2026 is the year to start! 😉 📌 To get started, you can use: Meta XR All-In-One SDK, or a leaner option: Meta XR Interaction SDK, which pulls in the Meta XR Core SDK package and includes advanced hand-tracking features and passthrough.

Hi XR devs! Big day today. v83 of the Meta XR SDK is officially out and it includes something very special to me 🦙. For the past 6 months we’ve been building AI Inference Building Blocks, which you may have seen teased at Meta Connect 2025. Our goal: keep the simplicity of Building Blocks while giving you the freedom to plug in any AI provider or model you want to power you apps with AI. More details and a full step-by-step guide are coming soon. And stay tuned as two more iterations are already locked in for early next year with new capabilities and major performance and inference improvements like you've never seen on Meta Quest. 🚀 For now, learn more on the Meta Horizon OS Developer Center:

Got introduced to , an AI code assistant specialised for Unity by Julian Park and after dabbling with it for a day, I am really impressed with how good it is for vibe coding on the Unity Game Engine. Bezi early impressions: - Bezi works direcly on Unity with a Plugin, this means that I don't need a Unity MCP - Because Bezi is built for Unity, the success rate of feature implementations is visibly higher than general coding models - It was able to integrate Unity store assets like a Weather system to this game pretty seamlessly - I was able to add a fishing database, lighting and weather systems into this game fairly quickly I'm very impressed with the results with Bezi so far. I feel that vibe coding a full indie game on Unity and releasing it on Steam, Mobile and Web is within reach. This also validates one thing that I have been suspecting: A specialised model designed for a specific use case can perform better than a general model at the particular domain. Very exciting!

MIT engineers built an AI wristband that controls robots by reading your hand muscles. It works by using an ultrasound to capture images of the muscles and tendons in your wrist. An AI algorithm then translates those images into the exact position of all 5 fingers, tracking 22 different ways your hand can bend, twist, and extend. In demos, wearers directed a robotic hand to play piano just by moving their own fingers. To put the complexity in perspective, it takes: > 34 muscles > 27 joints > 100+ tendons ...Just to scroll your phone This device captures it all from a band the size of a smartwatch. They tested across 8 volunteers with different hand sizes, tracking everything from sign language letters to holding scissors. The team is now collecting data from hundreds more users to train robots in surgical procedures. Something like this could one day become the universal remote for robots and virtual worlds, and we're way closer than most people expect.

This is Jump Ship. A 4 player co-op PvE indie game by a new indie studio created by Former Minecraft developers: - FPS PvE with Space Ship Combat - Seamlessly go on and off ship, into space exploration into enemy ships, the gameplay looks insanely impressive. - A variety hand crafted missions with random elements. "No two runs will be exactly the same" - Upgrade & Repir your ship - Scavenge for parts to upgrade or repair it, and adapt it to fit your needs. - Playable in both Solo and Coop - Coming to Xbox and PC (Unfortunately no PS5 release) - Demo available on Steam right now! This game looks genuinely incredible and I will definitely be trying out the demo as soon as I am free, there's a bunch of Hazelight (A Way Out, It Takes Two) developers on this as well, I really think this has the potential to be one of the biggest co-op games we've seen in a long time.

Playing #VR games "without" a headset... ... Absolute genius or total abomination? This is called PortalVR and it lets you play any SteamVR game or app on your Windows PC without wearing a headset. Just plug in your #MetaQuest via USB, put it on your desk facing you, and use your controllers while facing your screen. The setup and connection is quite seamless and the team came up with a clever locomotion system to simulate turning the user's head by just tapping the top of the thumbstick. Now the biggest question is: does this make any sense? In my opinion, to play "standard" VR #games, it doesn't. You lose the beauty of being immersed and reaching out to grab objects or looking around can be tricky. On the other hand, I think there might be experiences specifically designed with this interaction in mind like interactive installations or educational experiences that could greatly benefit from a more tactile interface than a mouse and a keyboard

This is the latest Google research on XR Interaction: World Mouse. Instead of using hand rays or gestures to point at things in the physical space, you move a cursor with a mouse and the system figures out where that cursor should sit in the 3D world. It works in two main ways: - On an object, the cursor follows the surface, so you can move precisely across walls, screens, furniture, or virtual objects. - Between objects, the system creates a smooth bridge through space, so the cursor can travel from one surface to another. That means you can go from a 2D panel to a 3D object, place content on a real wall, manipulate virtual objects, or interact with physical devices through digital proxies. This is the type of news, tools and product updates I share weekly in my newsletter. If you are into 3D XR and AI make sure to check it out (link on top of my profile). Based on “World Mouse: Exploring Interactions with a Cross-Reality Cursor” by Esen K. Tütüncü, Mar Gonzalez-Franco, Khushman Patel, and Eric J. Gonzalez

For the past five years, I have been working on building a company I truly believe has the power to disrupt Hollywood and empower indie artists. It’s called LOOR TV, pronounced like “Folklore.” The goal is simple: Allow pure indie creators to pitch their dream projects directly to paying monthly subscribers. Instead of the monthly subscription dollars going to executives who control gatekeeping and influence, we let the monthly subscribers fund indie artists directly. Our focus is on good stories that mainstream Hollywood would reject. Your monthly subscription converts into weekly amounts of our own in-game-style currency, which creators can cash out to fund their projects. When a project is fully funded and completed, it streams on the platform. Of course, you can always directly fund artists without a monthly subscription. The point is that the audience builds the streaming library. The audience is the rightful gatekeeper. We’ve proven this patronage streaming model allows us to make more money per subscriber than Netflix or Disney+ can per month. It also gives us the least risk of any entertainment company because all content is funded by the audience, not multi-million-dollar checks written by executives making big bets in advance. Our company profits via each transaction. Exactly like most video game currency stores. Gamification brings in more revenue than Hollywood. And younger generations are familiar with how that works already. The goal is not to make multi-million-dollar box office films, but to incubate a new underground counterculture to Hollywood. The same indie culture that built MTV, Channel 101, and Adult Swim. It gives new artists, whether they are traditional or AI filmmakers, animators, comedians, or video game designers, a way to pitch their projects directly to real people, not algorithms. A way for artists to retain creative control. We’ve been testing this for a while. Our CEO, Shon Tomlin, built FUEL TV for Fox Cable Networks and is no stranger to indie filmmaking and monetizing subcultures. I truly believe this is the way forward: directly putting people who love films in front of people who love making them, and letting the audience choose where their money goes. We’re very early and have lots of plans for how to use this new gamified streaming platform. We have an incredible team, but we need help spreading the word and proving that people believe in this model so we can raise capital to focus on scaling this full-time. Here’s a preview of everything we’ve premiered and pitched to our audience so far. We are just getting started.

And younger generations are familiar with how that works already. The goal is not to make multi-million-dollar box office films, but to incubate a new underground counterculture to Hollywood. The same indie culture that built MTV, Channel 101, and Adult Swim. It gives new artists, whether they are traditional or AI filmmakers, animators, comedians, or video game designers, a way to pitch their projects directly to real people, not algorithms. A way for artists to retain creative control. We’ve been testing this for a while. Our CEO, Shon Tomlin, built FUEL TV for Fox Cable Networks and is no stranger to indie filmmaking and monetizing subcultures. I truly believe this is the way forward: directly putting people who love films in front of people who love making them, and letting the audience choose where their money goes. We’re very early and have lots of plans for how to use this new gamified streaming platform. We have an incredible team, but we need help spreading the word and proving that people believe in this model so we can raise capital to focus on scaling this full-time. Here’s a preview of everything we’ve premiered and pitched to our audience so far. We are just getting started.

I recreated Meta’s new AI Glasses on my Quest, and the complete source code is available! 👓 Hey everyone! I’ve received a lot of feedback and messages about my latest project, where I used the Quest to recreate the features shown during Meta’s keynote. To answer your questions I decided to create a cool video to explain how I built it but also, share the full source code on Patreon 👇 Watch the making-of: Download the source code: This project includes: ✨ A UI navigable with microgestures 🤏 A pinch & twist hand-tracking input system 🎧 An audio player with volume control via pinch & twist 📸 A camera that zooms with pinch & twist 🖼️ A carousel to browse captured pictures 🧠 And a contextual AI that reacts to what you’re looking at Hope you guys will like it and that it will help you on your own project!! 😊

Build and customize complex AI applications with a flexible framework in this new short course, Building AI Applications with Haystack. Created in collaboration with deepset, makers of Haystack, and taught by Tuana, who is the developer relations lead for Haystack at deepset. Generative AI technology is changing rapidly and it can be challenging to integrate APIs from different LLMs, vector databases, and various tools such as web search. In this course, you will learn how to use the Haystack framework to make your development process more modular, allowing you to manage complexity and focus more on building your application. In detail, you’ll: - Build a RAG pipeline using Haystack’s main building blocks – components, pipelines, and document stores. - Create custom components in your pipeline by building a Hacker News summarizer that extends your app’s ability to access APIs. - Use conditional routing to create a branching pipeline with a fallback to web search mechanism when the LLM does not have the necessary context to respond to the user's query. - Build a self-reflecting agent for named entity recognition that loops using an output validator custom component. - Create a chat agent using OpenAI's function-calling capabilities which allow you to provide Haystack pipelines as tools to the LLM, enhancing that agent's capabilities. By the end of this course, you will learn a high-level orchestration framework that can help make your applications flexible, extendible, and maintainable, even as the technology stack changes, new user needs arise, and you add new features to your application.

Prototyped another iteration of a hand-tracking-based BoxelXR toolbar. This time, it's a circular menu spawned in front of a user once the index pinch is triggered. Notes: 1) It works great with four elements, but it's hard to scale for a higher number; 2) The selection interaction is forgiving for spatial positioning errors. This is because a 3D hand span is interpreted through a 1D angle range (a 1D subspace in the polar coordinate system of 2D projection space, which is a subspace of the 3D space of the experience, respectively). This prevents false positives and makes it easy for users to execute. Precise muscle coordination is not required, either. Design tip: Lower the dimensionality of your interaction to reduce cognitive loads and make it more accessible. 3) Using depth-based animations to show different UI states is a great way to leverage the third dimension and add something interesting to the experience. But be careful. When the UI faces a user's face, the contrast in the motion might be low, so use it only as an additional layer. In this prototype, color coding is the primary way to mark changes in a UI state. ⬇️🐙🐱 Download the prototype — #handtracking #xrinteraction #xri #xr #virtualreality #csharp #unity3d #prototyping #spatialcomputing #spatialdesign #spatialui #ux #ui #xrdevelopment
