Was testing how good body tracking on web actually is 🧪 Built a quick poc: camera → pose → play (30+ FPS) No install. Just URL. 3s start. This might fit really well for → rehab → elderly care → HR wellness Works on Mobile too👇 wellfit-three.vercel.app #WebXR #designium

AI-generated stories are everywhere. Trusted ones aren’t. Meet StoryFactory 🏭✨ A pipeline that: → Generates 🧠 → Verifies 📚 → Challenges ⚔️ → Scores 📊 From prompt → credible story data Ready for XR, apps, and real-world experiences. #designium #poc #RAG #AI

StoryLens 🕰️ We’re exploring a new kind of AR — not real-time overlays, but captured reality 📸 Take a photo. Step into the past. Discover the hidden story of where you stand ✨ Turn any place into a time portal 🌏 #designium #poc #AR #AI #XR

More AI powered VR Maps 🗺️ Using @xai Grok’s X search to find events in Tokyo happening today & web search to pull Tokyo ghost story locations, then visualizing everything with @Mapbox #designium

同じ場所に立ったまま、現実・過去・フィクションを切り替えられたら？ Street ViewとWorldLabsを組み合わせて、実在の場所を「別の時代・別の世界」に変換するプロトタイプを作りました。スマホブラウザでそのまま体験できます。 今回は3つの場所で試しました： 🎬 須賀神社の階段（君の名は） → あのシーンの場所が、アニメの世界に 🏙️ 日本橋（ALWAYS 続・三丁目の夕日） → 高架のない、昭和の日本橋へ 🚉 桜木町駅前（コクリコ坂から） → 昭和の駅前広場が蘇る

Reality / history / fiction—switch at the same spot 🌏 Street View + #WorldLabs demo Before/After on mobile/web 🎬 Yotsuya 🌇 Nihonbashi 🚉 Sakuragicho #designium

Introducing QuestLens✨ Upload signal image, it automatically generates a quest question, hints, and educational info. Explore the environment, find the object, capture it, and learn more about it. Works across museums, exhibitions, parks, and city exploration. #designium #LBE

Ever wondered why navigation cant be fun? I built a gamified geolocation system to change that. Enter route coordinates, Turn paths into interactive gameplay w/ collectables. Unlock contextual info along the way. Navigation becomes a gaming journey 🎮📍 #designium #GeoNavi #XR

My first try with @augg_io for #hackathonWinter2025 ✨ Mission: hunt the missing spell pieces to summon the meme god cat 😼🔮 Setup was smooth, with multi-tracking + persistence working great. Perfect for large-area AR! 🚀 #designium

Merry Xmas everyone!

🎧 Added audio support to the DeviceMap PoC Audio can now be recorded, loaded, or AI-generated, and anchored to space. Combined with AR drawing, any environment can become a virtual exhibition space. #designium #audioAR #soundAR #Niantic #DeadDrop

✏️ We’ve added AR drawing to our app! Draw anything by hand, save it to a real location, and bring it back with a simple code. Perfect for marking places in training, education, and tourism. You can even build 3D structures from your drawings! #designium #niantic #DeviceMap

Besides images, our DeviceMap Deaddrop can also drop videos, 3D models, even AI-generated assets — all scannable, retrievable, and trackable with a simple code. Bringing AR content creation anywhere in the real world. #designium @NianticSpatial @DeemosTech 🚀📍

Powered by @NianticSpatial DeviceMapping, we built Deaddrop — an AR content-creation system that lets you scan → create → anchor → upload → download → tracking all in one app. Perfect for any space-based content use cases. #designium #ar #spaceCMS 🚀📍✨

We made a DeviceMap Magic Flashlight demo app for #XRKaigi this year at Niantic booth! Let's come and try our app at ポートシティ竹芝 3/F #designium @NianticSpatial

Thanks Niantic for the gift this year😎

@barrsm @mechpil0t Right! That's good idea!

@AlexsonChu @mechpil0t Be careful, an opaque popup has obscured a large part of your vision! Maybe instead put up a semi-transparent warning border in red or some other color the user can see?

Noticed some safety risks when playing AR outdoors, so I made a small PoC that detects if a player is on or near a road using map data. #designium #mapbox #ARsafety
