June 7, 2023 /Technology/ — Spatial computing is a rapidly evolving field that is still in its early stages. As a result, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of what developing web experiences for this environment looks like. However, there are some general principles that can be applied.

One of the key principles of spatial computing is that it is all about immersion. Users should feel like they are actually inside the experience, rather than simply looking at it from the outside. This can be achieved through a variety of techniques, such as using 3D models, spatial audio, and haptic feedback. Continue reading →

Apple recently unveiled its Vision Pro headset at the Worldwide Developers Conference in California. With it, Apple is venturing into a market of head-mounted devices (HMDs) – which are usually just displays, but in this case is more of a complete computer attached to your head – as well as the worlds of virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR).

Physicists have long struggled to explain why the universe started out with conditions suitable for life to evolve. Why do the physical laws and constants take the very specific values that allow stars, planets and ultimately life to develop? The expansive force of the universe, dark energy, for example, is much weaker than theory suggests it should be – allowing matter to clump together rather than being ripped apart.
