The mission of @unity3d's Lab is to explore how technology will evolve in the next decade, to radically transform how games will be created and played.

Huge shout out to @3duaun who supported Unity Developers #ParalluxCo in the creation of a virtual gallery for #SanDiegoComicCon #madewithunity #ComicConAtHome2020

[Comic-Con International @Comic_Con]

FutureTechLive! returns to present the virtual World Builders activation, featuring immersive content by a global community of creators, powered by Unity. Explore new worlds in mixed reality, unleash your imagination, and create some magic. #ComicConAtHome #madewithunity #FTL2020

The first-ever Dr. Seuss augmented reality (AR) experience was created using our Mixed and Augmented Reality Studio (MARS) editor extension! 🎉

Discover the app on any app store and learn more about our MARS editor extension: https://t.co/g3ImVXa447

Check out the new Dr.Seuss AR experience!

We are thrilled this is the first publicly available app that was built using MARS.

Excellent work by @sugarcreative

MARS + Image Markers + Boat Attack + Universal Render Pipeline. #Unity3D brings it all together and makes it easy.

The MARS Simulation view supports complex, enclosed environments. @Yarharhar's X-Ray effect can look mesmerizing with the right room.

Normal map blending through the surface gradient framework is now available in Shader Graph, courtesy of Morten Mikkelsen. Read about it here: https://t.co/GdaLK9GXTI

Here it's being used to combine three different types of normal maps in a procedural texture.

[ᴜɴɪᴛʏ ʟᴀʙs @Unity3dLabs]

Games in the real world need to adapt to whatever environment is available. These scenarios should play the same, but creators must be empowered to communicate that intention. That's why procedural authoring is a fundamental aspect of MARS.

Hey folks, EXCITING NEWS! The EditorXR runtime is out, meaning every piece of functionality we've built into this beast of a VR tool is available for you to use, customize, and add to your own projects! https://t.co/ae3rRQHbMt

Watch the latest MARS talk from Unite Copenhagen. Includes the design process, a live demo, and the sensor-centric way MARS views the world.

Morten's paper is making waves - great to see this having such an immediate impact.

Morten Mikkelsen's "Surface Gradient Based Bump Mapping Framework" is insanely powerful/efficient/easy to integrate! I'm so so glad to leave this problem behind forever (left: rotation matrices, right: surface gradients) *Paper even includes source!!!😭🙏https://t.co/QpRuQqpFH5

[ᴜɴɪᴛʏ ʟᴀʙs @Unity3dLabs]

Read about the revolutionary new framework for layering and compositing of bump and normal maps. It's all in the paper published by Morten Mikkelsen, Director of Graphics for Unity Labs.

Really excited for #MARS from the @Unity3dLabs team. I've gotten the opportunity to see it evolve and develop into a powerful game changing tool that really lets you think about and author #AR and #MR experiences in a new way! https://t.co/gc6bDQFxKR

@aliBee42 We’re doing a talk right now in Hall 10. :)

[ᴜɴɪᴛʏ ʟᴀʙs @Unity3dLabs]

Happening now!

[ᴜɴɪᴛʏ ʟᴀʙs @Unity3dLabs]

🎉 Come see a hands-on overview of Project MARS at #UniteCopenhagen tomorrow, 1-2pm at the @unity3d AR/VR kiosk! More here: https://t.co/CbBE6rlmmH
