But it is still his fault for having driven the company to this point with the massive hirings of the previous months (do you remember he wanted to hire 10,000 people in Europe?) Apple is working on some sort of metaverse, and its headset is entering mass production. This is clearly the beginning of Apple’s entrance into the Metaverse.

These are the improvements it applied: Changes in prices will start with the next Unity 2023 LTS, so existing applications will not be affected, at least while the use previous Unity versions Unity Personal will still be free (now up to 200K of revenues) and applications made with it will be subject to no fee at all.

Regarding the glasses, I have not big hopes for true AR glasses, but I think that thanks to Facebook and Apple, finally we’ll have some important smartglasses entering the market , making the mainstream think about wearing something on their face to enjoy notifications from the phone. Phone AR will be always more popular.

Is this really what Apple wants? (Thanks Robert Scoble for this news!). Blogger Tom Ffiske, that writes on Virtual Perceptions, has decided to write a very good book about AR and VR technologies and it is becoming pretty popular on Amazon. XR Europe will be awesome! This is one of the weirdest rag-doll experiments in Unity.

Unity support for OpenXR is still in early beta , and so it’s not reliable yet to develop an OpenXR-compliant application in Unity. We Unity developers have still to use the current Unity tools that make us develop once, but then build for every different platform (like the ones I describe in this article ).

I just got back from Lisbon, where I attended AWE Europe. Apple headset will not be focused on gaming. A new report seems to suggest that the upcoming Apple headset won’t be focused on gaming at all. In fact, at launch, it won’t even be possible to create Unity content for it. Other relevant news.

The one thing that created that image now, in the streets, that I would have expected like XR to do; it’s those air pods from Apple. A big company like Apple, Google, really pushing the thing out and saying, “this is what it’s going to be,” and then making it part of everyday life. I thought that was amazing.
