@Scobleizer @Capgemini Duke University had something similar - the DiVE, created in 2005. Used it a few times as director of a serious games company. We were discussing further collabs (using it w/Unreal Engine 3). 6-sided CAVE system, 3m x 3m space, stereo glasses & hand interaction. Ahead of its time

When I worked at Microsoft an engineer said someday the perfect office would not have any windows. He had projectors aimed at each wall, like this. Back in 2005. @Capgemini’s new San Francisco office has a Holodeck which demonstrates the advantages of a window-less office. It was the host of @jowyang’s Llama Lounge last night. Fun room to dream about how generative AI could change our lives.

Checking in to see how people have been enjoying my game #NOPECHALLENGE. I love these reviews. I wonder if we put a virtual inhaler in the game's virtual "Breather Space" if people would use it. #MetaQuest2 #MetaQuest3 #indiedev #vr

This is more than Id Software made on Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, and the original Doom, put together. The addressable market of VR headsets is pretty substantial now.

@therealcliffyb Didn't care for it much when it was released. I couldn't get into the fantasy of it all. Then recently watched the first one with my 9yr old, and I really enjoyed it with him. His engagement and interest influenced me a bit this time around. It was fun. Go have a kid Cliff. :)

Anyone else never "get" Harry Potter?! I feel so alone in my not caring for it.

Night dive test #UnrealEngine #VR

I'm experimenting with 3D texture synthesis and got some amusing results. It takes an input object and replaces all the voxels with voxels from another object, respecting local color and connectivity. Not sure if this will ever be useful, but it's certainly fun to play with :)
