SecureFab XR shows what industrial-grade mixed reality should look like in regulated environments. Created during the Stanford XR Hackathon, SecureFab XR delivers real-time, spatially anchored training for semiconductor fabs, pharma cleanrooms, and defense facilities—without ever sending camera data, facility layouts, or proprietary processes off-device. Powered by SecureMR and designed for PICO headsets, all computer vision runs entirely on-device: • Local YOLO-based object detection • 3D bounding boxes aligned to real components • Zone-based spatial validation • Step-by-step guidance anchored to the physical workspace No cloud CV. No raw camera access. Privacy enforced by architecture, not policy. Training procedures are JSON-driven, letting experts update workflows without recompiling the app—while SecureMR’s isolated runtime handles vision, mapping, and rendering in parallel pipelines for safe, low-latency passthrough. SecureFab XR proves a critical point for spatial computing: AI-powered XR doesn’t need the cloud to be effective. In regulated industries, on-device ML isn’t optional—it’s the only viable path.

How do you build ML-powered mixed reality experiences without sending camera data to the cloud? At StanfordXR’s Immerse the Bay hackathon, one team explored this head-on with Glucose MR—a privacy-first spatial assistant for real-time nutrition awareness. Built entirely on-device using SecureMR, Glucose MR analyzes food in real time and delivers personalized guidance for people with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, without exposing camera frames, health data, or network calls. No cloud inference. No raw sensor access. No compromise on trust. Using an on-device YOLO model, local nutrition datasets (SR Legacy + FNDDS), and domain-specific decision logic, the team created a full spatial ML pipeline in just 36 hours—from vision → inference → mixed-reality UI. Glucose MR shows what’s possible when privacy-by-design ML meets spatial computing: real-time awareness, low latency, and sensitive use cases that simply aren’t viable with cloud-only approaches. This is the future of Spatial ML—and exactly the kind of pattern SecureMR was built to enable.

Hey devs 👋 Happy New Year! Wishing you peace and well-being as we kick off 2026. ✨ To celebrate what we’ve built together, we’ve prepared a special gift: PICO’s first-ever Annual Developer Review (in our 10-year history). We call it: “PICO Developer Moments — the meaningful moments we’ve shared with you.” 👉View your personalized 2025 review: developer-report-global.picoxr.com/?channel=4 (PICO login required) We’ll keep putting developers first in 2026—shipping better platform capabilities, improving workflows, and creating more opportunities for you to connect and grow here in the community. Thanks for being part of this journey. Let’s make even more moments together. ❤️ #XR #Developers #PICO

At the Stanford XR Immerse the Bay Hackathon, Team SecureFab presented a compelling use case developed with the SecureMR SDK on the PICO 4 Ultra. 💡 SecureFab XR (Concept) The team explored how mixed reality could be used to train technicians in high-sensitivity environments like semiconductor fabs — without exposing camera feeds, equipment layouts, or proprietary processes. Their idea: a privacy-first MR training assistant where all visual data stays on-device, and all ML inference runs inside SecureMR’s secure runtime on a PICO 4 Ultra. Step-by-step holographic guidance could be overlaid onto the real world, while raw RGB and depth data never leave the headset. 🔐 Why SecureMR enables this SecureMR allows developers to run ML model inference directly on PICO devices using secure pipelines built from tensors and operators. This makes it possible to unlock advanced MR use cases — object detection, validation, spatial guidance — without cloud dependency and without compromising privacy. SecureFab XR is a great example of how SecureMR unlocks AI-powered mixed reality while keeping sensitive data protected by design.

This past weekend at the Stanford XR Immerse the Bay Hackathon hosted by @stanfordxr_ , a team built an incredibly impressive SecureMR project — and walked away with the Best SecureMR App award. 🎉💡 The Project: GlucoseMR Managing diabetes requires constant cognitive load—estimating carbs, tracking sugars, and adjusting glucose levels. GlucoseMR tackles this by allowing users to simply look at their food and instantly receive glucose-aware MR feedback. 🚀 What the Team Built In just 36 hours, the team created an end-to-end system that: 🔹 Uses a lightweight YOLO model for on-device food detection 🔹 Processes nutrition + glucose logic locally using SR Legacy + FNDDS datasets. 🔹 Accepts voice input for glucose levels 🔹 Displays MR overlays with personalized, glucose-aware guidance 🔹 Runs fully within SecureMR’s private, sandboxed environment No cloud. No data leaving the headset. 🔐 Why This Matters This isn’t just a hackathon demo — it’s a glimpse into the future of privacy-first healthcare XR. With SecureMR, the team proved that powerful, AI-driven experiences can be built without sacrificing user privacy. 🔓 What’s Next? We’re excited to collaborate with the team to #OpenSource this project, so developers can learn exactly how to leverage SecureMR to build safe, local-first XR applications. developer.picoxr.com/document/unity…
