Unity, makers of the popular game engine, announced earlier this week it’s getting ready to levy some pretty significant fees on developers , causing many to rethink whether it makes more sense to actually go with the main competition, Unreal Engine from Epic Games. It seems Epic isn’t wasting any time to help transition those creating projects for Apple Vision Pro.

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

Apple today announced its iPhone 15 lineup of smartphones, including the iPhone 15 Pro which will be the company’s first phone to capture spatial video for immersive viewing on Vision Pro. While Apple Vision Pro itself works as a spatial camera, allowing users to capture immersive photos and videos, I think we can all agree that wearing a camera on your head isn’t the most convenient way to capture content.

Today I host another fantastic guest post written by VR ergonomics expert (and friend of mine) Rob Cole. Rob is a big fan of PCVR (he even tried to design a new SteamVR controller , do you remember?) and recently he had the opportunity to go hands-on with the high-resolution Pimax Crystal headset. He wanted to write on my blog his opinion on this device to inform the community and of course I accepted, because I’m more than happy to host another one of his super-detailed articles.

Having seen how far the technology has come though, it raises a question: why hasn’t Nintendo made a VR headset yet?

Evidence of a new AMD APU for Valve found in Linux drivers, hints in Steam drivers found by YouTuber SadlyItsBradley and dataminers on his Discord, and a mostly forgotten leaked image from Valve HQ suggest that could be the company's plan. For Valve, it could make far more sense than a fully standalone approach.

Since when has learning and development (L&D) become such a negative experience with its intended learners? Could it be because learners have been conditioned by very poor learning experiences over the past two decades, combined with the kinks of technological innovation? Or is it because learning has typically been designed as a one-size-fits-all solution, despite the fact that humans are not clones?
