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:

🚀 This is something I recently learned about the 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗮 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝗗𝗞, and if you're aiming for 𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀-𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺, there is a way to do it. Basically, the Interaction SDK Essentials package provides the core implementations of all the interaction models, along with the necessary shaders, materials, and prefabs. The package can optionally integrate with Unity XR if the dependency is available. 💡Use this package paired with Unity XR Hands if cross-platform development is important to your project.

📣 I talk a lot about Meta SDKs because I spend a lot of time with these tools. But also when someone asks me what VR/MR tools they can use for cross platform support, I recommend 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆’𝘀 𝗫𝗥 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹𝗸𝗶𝘁 which provides: - 𝗖𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀-𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁: Meta Quest, OpenXR, Windows Mixed Reality, + more - 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: Hover, select, grab - 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸: Haptic + visual tint/line for possible & active interactions - 𝗨𝗜: Canvas interaction via XR controllers - 𝗨𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀: XR Origin support for stationary & room-scale VR - 𝗫𝗥 𝗛𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀: this is an extended package to support more advanced hand tracking interactions 👉 Also, it supports 𝗔𝗥 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗔𝗥 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, the features are: - 𝗔𝗥 𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺: Maps screen touches to Input System gesture events via TouchscreenGestureInputController - 𝗦𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻-𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗽𝘂𝘁: Feeds touch data into XRRayInteractor for AR interaction - 𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿: Converts place, select, translate, rotate, scale gestures into object manipulation 👨‍💻 And to emulate your apps/games without physical devices I recommend the following: - 𝗫𝗥 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗦𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 for VR/MR to test your interactions - 𝗔𝗥 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝟮.𝟬 for AR Foundation testing, this allows you to remotely test all the AR features by connecting the Unity editor to your physical device (iOS or Android) 💡 Are you using Unity’s XR Toolkit? ISDK? any other toolkit?

Would you believe an AI agent can test a real VR action game in real time, the way a person plays it? Meta XR Operator makes it possible. As far as I know, this is the first time. I am not talking about tapping a menu or replaying a recorded click path, but genuinely moving, shooting, and using the same game mechanics a human player does. In NeonReach VR, which is a real (and open source) action game, rings spawn 12m out and come at you somewhere between 1.5 and 5.5 m/s, getting faster over a 90 second ramp. There are three kinds: straight, weaving side to side, and spinning. Every shot is a full slingshot cycle, so you press, pull back, aim, then release. Obstacles arrive at head height and cost you a life if you don't get out of the way. You have ten lives. Here is why the game is hard for an AI agent. Even though Meta XR Operator gives the agent everything it needs to observe the app and act inside it, the agent still cannot play. One agent turn takes 10 to 15 seconds. One throw is four steps that have to happen in order, because the press has to latch before the pull, and they cannot be batched into a single call. So a throw costs about 45 seconds. A fast ring only exists for 2.3 seconds. One action takes 20x longer than the target is alive. Prompt tuning does not close a gap that size. What works is a three stage path: EXPLORATION, then SKILL, then SCRIPT. 1/ EXPLORATION. The agent drives the live app and works the game out on its own. It verified the coordinate mapping by setting a pose and reading it back, then derived the launch model. The more useful output was the traps it found. For example, the player's own body collider silently deflects a ball released inside it, with no error and no log line. That produced two confident wrong conclusions before anyone caught them. 2/ SKILL. All of that gets written down as a reusable SKILL.md plus an aim solver. There is a section that separates what was actually verified from what was assumed, so a wrong conclusion cannot quietly turn into doctrine. This stage also produced the trick that mattered. Set timeScale to 0 and a throw becomes atomic in game time, so however long the agent spends thinking never shows up in the shot. 3/ SCRIPT. The agent then compiles everything into a player script, a loop that observes, decides, and throws, calling the MCP servers directly from Python with no model in the hot path. Round trips drop from 10 to 15 seconds down to something between 1 and 16 milliseconds. The loop runs at 23 Hz, about 0.75 seconds per throw, roughly 60x faster than the agent doing it turn by turn. The result is that it plays like a person, which you can see from the attached video. It tracks the rings, works out where each one is going, throws with whichever hand is free, moves out of the way of the obstacles, and does not wait around to see whether the last throw landed. Shipping settings, no difficulty edits, no health locks, no slow motion. It plays until it actually loses. The takeaway generalizes beyond games: an agent does not have to be the player. Even following the same rules as a player, it has too much latency between moves. Having the agent write the thing that acts bypasses that constraint entirely. Try it yourself: or explore the agent-created skill and scripts: Based on NeonReach VR by Dilmer, with no code changes. I only upgraded its Meta XR Core SDK to v205, which ships Meta XR Operator. Our blog post, Introducing Meta XR Operator: Close the Build-Test-Verify Loop for VR: Disclosure: I work at Meta. And this represents my own opinion. #XR #VR #AI #MetaQuest #Unity #GameDev

Evan Spiegel talks Snap Spectales vs. Meta Raybans. Feels a vertically-integrated approach targeting higher end (eg. Tesla with Roadster, Apple with iPhone) is the move for smart glasses. Also, says brand association is risky for Luxxotica: “I think it’s much more harmful for Luxottica than it is for Meta. I think Meta needed to partner with Luxottica because the Meta brand…is not something that people want to put anywhere near their face. So, I think that Meta really needed [them]. I think what’s challenging for Luxottica is they took the most iconic, crazy high-margin product and they destroyed the margin and then they associated it with Meta. So I think we’ll see if that pans out over a longer period of time, if that was the right brand choice for them. But I can definitely see why Meta needed to camouflage their brand, which I think a lot of people don’t resonate with and don’t like, with the Ray-Ban brand. But I think people are misreading the dynamic of what’s happening when you have Meta Ray-Bans on the shelf next to a regular pair of Ray-Bans and they’re both about the same price.” *** Full interview with David Senra here:

Hand Menu Interaction. The simplest trick to improve the accessibility of floating hand-attached UI panels for spatial interactions is to smooth their movement. It allows us to stabilize them and mitigate a hand tremor due to hand-tracking imperfection and/or physiological condition. (Interestingly, the visual stabilization helps reduce the physical tremor itself. I guess it normalizes the hand muscles/brain feedback loop when you target the interactables). By the way, if you are curious about how to design and prototype spatial hand-tracking-based interactions like this — join my little workshop at Hatch Conference. #handtracking #prototyping #menuinteraction #interactiondesign #spatialdesign #spatialcomputing #mixedreality #vr #virtualreality #xr #metaquest #uxdesign #uidesign #spatialui
