Thank you everyone who came to TKO, our #BitSummit afterparty with Tokyo Game Bridge last night.
The turnout was amazing and we couldn’t have wished for a room full of cooler people. We hope you had a great evening!
Same time next year?

Visiting the TOKYO NODE “XR PARADE” in Toranomon Hills today and blown away by the creativity on display. Their summer hackathon has fostered some amazing #XR projects which are well worth checking out.
It will be running until Fri 24th October.

Diagnose with data. Treat with design.
One is the yin and the other the yang. They follow each other in an infinite cycle.
Data is the process of deeply understanding reality as it *is*.
Design is the process of designing future reality as it *could be*.

I've been trying to crack handheld virtual reality.
I think I’ve finally got it. Introducing Portal. Portal lets you play unmodified VR content with just a tablet and a phone.
This early version of Portal aims to solve some big long-standing pain points for VR devs. A 🧵 👇

4d gaussian splat processed from one of the largest volumetric capture stages ever made.
And fun fact, it was Intel that originally made it! I remember seeing the results in 2017, and my mind was blown. You could capture something once, and reframe it infinitely in post.
Alas, intel (like many other players) realized 4d capture was too early and shuttered the studio.
Now some of the OG team re-processed it with the SOTA radiance fields research, and found they could get that whole capture processed on a few machines vs. the hundreds it originally took.
This is what I love about reality capture -- your data gets better with time, and ages like fine wine :)

Thank you everyone who came to our event at TOKYO NODE LAB last night. It was a milestone event made possible by our speakers Degly Pava and Fabrice Matulic; the event and venue teams; and our amazing growing #XR community.
We’ll see you again in September! #XRTokyoMeetup

We’re under way with our first talk, Fabrice Matulic talking on how you can turn everyday objects into conversational companions.
It’s a really fun one that blends #AR with #AI. #XRToykoMeetup

Japan has so much potential for VR. It's a nation of players. We found tons of players buying the Quest device just for playing Mecha Force. There is just not enough content for Japanese taste. sign....
