Top 4 selling app in the

Apparently we've found success! And it only took 6 years of my life, all my savings & 401K, an Aston Martin and an Apartment 😅
PS: Yes that's insane in all counts.
🔥 Immersive displays transform the games we already know and love into spectacular
#XR
experiences 🔥
This tech displays stereoscopic 3D content that adjusts to the viewer's position and its orientation in space. Possible only with AR/VR headsets
This was a fun research
@hmltn
I was talking to a friend outside of tech yesterday, he was convinced it was AR since that display on the outside makes it appear to be see through in marketing materials

#TiltBrush
running on a smartphone! Totally insane!
It's too bad you can't really draw properly with a phone, you can do basic things but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

This Apple headset hype can’t end well.
Their employees aren’t magicians and the whole world seems to have unrealistic expectations of what they will deliver
I’ll welcome them to

, but I don’t expect anything revolutionary, just minor refinements to what we already have
🤯 Endless possibilities 🤯
- This is a Unity app running within
#FigminXR
's browser.
- Real stereoscopic 3D with head tracking. Think of it like a
#LookingGlass
display but it works with any viewing angle.
It demonstrates bidirectional comms between web-apps and Figmin XR,
There's many reasons why I dedicate my life to the advancement of
#AR
. But the biggest one is that this tech is 🌲 green 🌲
We'll all eventually come to understand this, to the ones that already do: Cheers! 🥂 Let's get back to work 🌎

I am excited about
#VisionPro
but please understand...
I ported my app to every device imaginable, but for AVP I have to put in months of work, and deprecate older supported platforms in the process.
Why? Because Apple wants complete rendering control in MR, for no good reason
I'm terrible at drawing, but my daughter won't mind 🥰
The brush can snap to real world surfaces and you can paint over them, it's so much fun!

My thoughts on

In this article I'll offer my perspective on why that is, as a person who has dedicated his life to the

Dear

:
Nice to meet you, I make
@FigminXR
, likely the most popular
#MixedReality
app in the world.
♥️ I really love the idea of a shared app space in

🙁 I'm not happy that

devs are forced to make use of it. You don't allow
🤯 Mindblown for real! 🤯
Here's Zuck saying "supporting developers" and

showing right behind him.
There's many reasons why

Big news! Meta has just announced that they're opening up Meta Horizon OS, the operating system powering Quest, to allow others to design more headsets using their ecosystem. Lenovo, Microsoft, and ASUS are among Meta's initial partners. This move could spark a new wave of

💔 it hurts I won't lie, years and years of my life have gone into this product and they act like it doesn't exist.
At the end of the day it won't matter, real people like it and use it *A LOT*
🎉 Mission complete! 🎉
We have a

release candidate and we launch later this month! Hurray! 😊
💕 We love the hardware and the people that build it, did you preorder yet?

"Figmin XR is the work of my life"
These are the words I said to the entire
@MagicLeap
team when they invited me to present the app at their HQ.
I really meant it, they wanted consumer

and I delivered on my promise 100 fold.
Thank you

I hate cloud services, imagine the atrocity if we couldn't play Pac-Man or Super Mario because the servers were down! That's what happens with most software today, but hardware as well?? 😤

The latest Magic Leap update supports full hand tracking!, I am pretty amazed to say the least!, I made a quick video to show you.

It keeps me connected & entertained while doing house chores
I'm sorry it's not for brain surgery or designing space ships 🧠🚀 😆😅
🎶 Audio reactive haptics 🎶 I can feel the music in my hands!
I sent an audio signal to the

controller haptic motors and magic happened!

Bonus points if you can tell what music is playing

glasses every day for over 6 friggin' years!
Yesterday I went to the eye doctor... 😬 he said...
🎉 Everything is fine! 🎉
#AugmentedReality
Is
#FigminXR
coming to
#VisionPro
?... No and Yes...
It will have *NO* passthrough, so essentially
#VR
. Will distribute for free via
#TestFlight
.
Why no Passthrough?
Because Apple won't give us this line of code:
"passthrough = true"
No plans for an official release
🥹 It’s hard to put my feelings to words…
I’ve been coding this app daily for over 4 years and only now it’s getting noticed.
I feel so thankful for these wonderful artists, and for the team
@TiltFive
for creating the first consumer
#AR
glasses.
You know what sucks?
I want to "unveil" what I've been working on a
#MagicLeap
2, I feel that 'actually useful' spatial computing needs transparent displays.
But I only get traction from
#MetaQuest
, and sometimes I feel like the folks from ML are embarrassed to support us

My 7 year old daughter made this in

all by herself!! 🤯
For years I've tried to get her interested in my app to no avail, but things have started to change since she started watching
@ewanrose_art
♥️
I really like
#Qualcomm
's approach of
#AR
glasses as an accessory to your smartphone.
If they can pull these wireless glasses off it will be a pretty irresistible proposition to me.
Wonder why we don't post more hand physics stuff?
Well the truth is that it's extremely hard to capture footage, when you record on the
#hololens
2 the framerate immediately caps at 30fps and that murders physics.
So it's hard to show you what it's really like, I try though! 😇
💡Passthrough relighting…
May not mean much to most, but I couldn’t sleep last night with the excitement to add it to
@FigminXR
Today it’s done and I’m 🤯
This plus the motion editor will make update 21 insane.
PS: it means that AR lights illuminate the real world surfaces
Allowing
#MagicLeap
1 to disappear is equivalent to burning historical books.
Most people still don't understand the importance of this device, and how it has changed the course of history.
But they will... and all that will be left to see are the ashes.
For $600 bucks
#nreal
light glasses are a must buy, the display quality is also the very best by **FAR**
If you are an aspiring

While on tour with them I got to know the people behind
#MetaQuest

I'm a strange guy...
I've successfully made
#TiltBrush
a built-in editor of
@FigminXR
but I don't even know how to announce it, it's too much!
Imagine
#TiltBrush
+ 3D models, GIFs, Videos, Music, Voxels and physics, all in
#AR
.
I'm a bit afraid of the monster I created.
I'll be joining Jeri on this talk, Come hang out with us!
I'll tell you all about Figmin XR for
#TiltFive
, maybe even show you
#TiltBrush
as a built-in editor.
It starts very soon!
I'm loving the

build of Figmin XR
It's not a straight port, we are coding a new "Table mode" for it and it's totally awesome, the dream of

tables from sci-fi becomes real

#xr
3 out of 5k viewers had an issue with me using a
#Hololens
2 to record this footage, not bad!
I will continue to do so, this is not CGI, it's the same app you'll get on
#TiltFive
.
Making an
#AR
app multiplatform is hard as hell and I fully intend to benefit from my hard work.
🎉 New
#XReal
glasses will have 6DoF, hand tracking, meshing & spatial anchors.
Price is $699, though it seems like you need a Samsung phone for spatial computing?.
I think
@FigminXR
might make a return to that platform! 👍
