It's a little too real...and creepy for comfort

Researchers made a bat robot, and we're only slightly creeped out

Researchers from Caltech and the University of Illinois teamed up to design a robot that could replicate a bat's flight, which could improve other flying robots in the future.

I know many of us are wondering how we can help as we continue to hear the news about Ukraine. The @ObamaFoundation has compiled a list of organizations you can support if you're thinking about what you can do to make a difference right now. obama.org/updates/help-ukrai…

Probably in the minority here but I'd love more passive VR content, as in more VR music videos/short films/animations. Honestly my favourite things, gaming is great but does everything have to be gamified? An occasional hand gesture is fine by me #VirtualReality

Wait until you see your photos like this, especially later this year on Apple's new device. I hear you will spend hours just looking at all your photos again.

Blending the lighting of virtual objects with the real world is a powerful tool and makes #AugmentedReality feel more believable. This is a mockup using a lidar scan of my office, but I can't wait to have this possible on device in the future.

Never thought vinyls and AR would go so well together. This is looking sick!
