In this first part of our tutorial series on making physical objects come to life on HoloLens, we are going to set up Vuforia in Unity. I would plan to keep a Vuforia tab open in your web browser throughout most of this tutorial, and when developing in general, since Vuforia development is tied to...
It seems to me you can’t swing a dead cat near an augmented reality developer without hearing the word Vuforia escape their lips. PTC’s software solution has become the go-to for most developers in the mobile AR space, and since they recently added full support for the HoloLens in Unity, I figured it was about...
Finally we’re getting somewhere! After a slow start to 2017 we now have a week that’s packed with interesting content for both the Oculus Rift and Gear VR.

Preview builds suggested it could be great, but the final product was ultimately a little dated and too much to be desired. The developer itself still holds promise, though, and we’re optimistic about its next game. That...

How much can you talk in five minutes? That’s what we tried to figure out on this week’s episode of the UploadVR’s virtual reality news podcast: the Upload Download. I, your host, Joe Durbin, am joined by Az Balabanian and Ashley Whitlach. Now that CES 2017 is over and we all survived (somehow) we’re back...

Users on Reddit have started recommending some of their favorite videos here and have compiled a list of confirmed areas. YouTube on PS VR currently supports both 2D 360-degree and 3D 360-degree videos. Enjoy! Original 12/21/16: For a gaming-focused headset, PlayStation VR...
After its announcement nearly a year ago, the much anticipated illustrative VR narrative from Oculus Story Studio, Dear Angelica, finally makes its way onto the Oculus Store. It stars Geena Davis and Mae Witman and it’s out now for free on the Rift. Oculus Story Studio was set up with the remit to explore what was...
Over the past two weeks, ZeniMax Media and Oculus have been duking it out in the Earle Cabell Federal Building and Courthouse in Dallas, TX, and we’ve been observing and taking notes.
