Wakeboard season is about to start

Power consumption of our XO gym companion prototype.

We are aiming for a battery life of 4 hours

Excited to be going into the Meta Reality Labs building, where all the really interesting stuff is happening.

One very big item off my bucket list ✅

Heading to San Francisco for the Meta Developer Summit

See you there !

One month of free fitness? Who could say no to that.

Majorly impressed with DeepSeek R1

The phrase was generated with r1:14B on my local old 3070 laptop GPU with 6GB VRAM

Prompt: Complete the sentence: To be or not to be and put it into a fitness context

It kept iterating on several ideas automatically and landed on that quote

Sunday is #dogday

Ah come on, you are much much more than a next token predictor

Day 4 of our cheaper DIY "Meta Orion" glasses
Running on a Nintendo Switch with 6DOF tracking

Big Caveat: This is just an experiment and does not have stereo rendering for now because the Switch can't handle the display resolution

If that ever happens that's going to be the least of our problems because whole families will be ripped apart by time dilation.

So those works will most likely be done by whole family clans traveling together which means they are self employed and paid based on bidding contracts for transporting

Day 2 of building cheaper DIY "Meta Orion" glasses

Rotation does not behave perfectly yet and the tracking update frequency is too low at the moment but things look very promising

Day 1 of buidling cheaper DIY Meta Orion glasses for @xrworkout.ai #spectacles #ar #vr

Happy New Year !

Looking back at Christmas

My devious plan is starting to work out.

I built social features into XRWorkout letting people share their challenges with others. And now I can get likes for my owm workouts.

Now I know why people are making their own social networks, to get more engagement on their own posts 😅

Public challenges are live and everyone can upvote them

Go add your own and make something great

I guess it's not @xreal-global.bsky.social with their limited shipping destinations
So it's @getviture.bsky.social Pro XR for now

To all that are interested, we are trying to jerry rig a DIY "Meta Orion"ish solution with cheaper hardware to make @xrworkout.ai happen outside the VR space as well

Made some clicky button tech. Clickity click click hehehe.
I've always wanted buttons in VR that have some *resistance* to them, but are also light and snappy, not heavy. I think I've found the right balance for my game.

My new motto for UI design:

Just give up

😂

Punch Punch Crunch!

New targets, more music, better video recording, challenge leaderboard, environment creator and more

XRWorkout got a huge update over the weekend!

It's the only free to play gamified full body training in town so what's your excuse for staying on the sofa?

I am currently trying OpenVibe as a mobile client which shows both Mastodon and Bluesky feeds as one.

Not sure yet if it's the ideal solutiin but it means I don't need to drop one

Here 👋

@xrworkout.ai is now officially on BlueSky as well

Punch Punch Crunch

I often watch youtube videos in the preview without actually clicking on it, so I agree that captions are becoming an important part of social media content

Christmas in xrworkout land

Last preview before the next release

I am walking (kinda hiking because it's up some hills in the woods) with our dogs each day, usually with a 20lbs weighted vest. Best time of the day to tackle difficult problems in my head
