The Facebook founder is letting other hardware-makers use his company’s virtual reality operating system.
Astronomers have produced the largest 3D map of the universe, which can be explored in an interactive VR video. In the process, they’ve uncovered some tantalizing hints that our understanding of physics, including the ultimate fate of the cosmos, could be wrong.
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is a huge international project to map out the universe in three dimensions, which began collecting data in 2021. This early version of the map only includes data collected during the first year – 5.7 million galaxies and quasars out of the planned goal of 40 million. This data allows the scientists to peer as far as 11 billion light-years into deep space and time, providing a glimpse into the very early universe with an unprecedented precision of less than 1%.

Scientists have created a method to produce 3D full-color holographic images using smartphone screens instead of lasers. This innovative technique, with additional advancements, holds the potential for augmented or virtual reality displays.
Whether augmented and virtual reality displays are being used for gaming, education, or other applications, incorporating 3D displays can create a more realistic and interactive user experience.
“Although holography techniques can create a very real-looking 3D representation of objects, traditional approaches aren’t practical because they rely on laser sources,” said research team leader Ryoichi Horisaki, from The University of Tokyo in Japan. “Lasers emit coherent light that is easy to control, but they make the system complex, expensive, and potentially harmful to the eyes.”
Cornell University researchers have developed two technologies that track a person’s gaze and facial expressions through sonar-like sensing. The technology is small enough to fit on commercial smartglasses or virtual reality or augmented reality headsets yet consumes significantly less power than similar tools using cameras.
Researchers have developed a 3D full-color display method that uses a smartphone screen rather than a laser to create holographic images. With further development, the new approach could be useful for augmented or virtual reality displays.
In the not-too-distant future, chatbots and VR could let us interact with lost friends and relatives.
AR-Smart glasses: 2029. Will look like just a normal pair of sunglasses. All normal smartphone type features. Built in AI systems. Set up for some VR stuff. An built in earbud / mic, for calls, music, talking to Ai, etc… May need a battery pack, we ll see in 2029.
The smart glasses will soon come with a built-in assistant.

The pursuit of artificial intelligence that can navigate and comprehend the intricacies of three-dimensional environments with the ease and adaptability of humans has long been a frontier in technology. At the heart of this exploration is the ambition to create AI agents that not only perceive their surroundings but also follow complex instructions articulated in the language of their human creators. Researchers are pushing the boundaries of what AI can achieve by bridging the gap between abstract verbal commands and concrete actions within digital worlds.
Researchers from Google DeepMind and the University of British Columbia focus on a groundbreaking AI framework, the Scalable, Instructable, Multiworld Agent (SIMA). This framework is not just another AI tool but a unique system designed to train AI agents in diverse simulated 3D environments, from meticulously designed research labs to the expansive realms of commercial video games. Its universal applicability sets SIMA apart, enabling it to understand and act upon instructions in any virtual setting, a feature that could revolutionize how everyone interacts with AI.
