It enables multiplayer logic by default, it allows you to create custom behaviors and connect to our dashboard to create custom analytics.

And remember, no builds, no store submissions, publish directly from the Unity Editor to all devices!

One of the most common questions I get is whether EducationXR allows customization to create new logic. And the answer is of course! Check this video showcasing the cool simulations that can be achieved.

While our drag and drop tools are accessible to anyone, we understand the need for further customization, so we created Flow, an advanced visual scripting language that is easy to pick up and deep enough for developers to create rich simulations with.

This is the creator ecosystem we have been working on for years to make everyone a @unity creator. Automatic multiplayer, AI, no code, all devices, one click publish and a ton more. Enterprises of all sizes are using it today to deploy their immersive programs.

@mattmiesnieks @speedrun Also, I would love to DM you a couple of questions, but X only allows me if I have a blue check, it seems

[Alejandro Castedo @Ayf3l]

@mattmiesnieks @speedrun Thanks, we are not targeting the overcrowded AR segment of creation tools, but all of the 3D interactive one. We have created ourselves over 800 experiences/games for Fortune 500/100 clients with a tiny team of non coders, and we want anyone to be able to create anything

Reach for the Sky was the latest entry, really well made city and exciting height climbing mechanics. I really hope they iterate on this concept as I want to swing!

Our 2nd internal #gamejam at @educationxr just happened recently. The teams only had 24h to create a game and the theme was Mobility! Check out the games 1/4

Plunder Punch is an extremely creative pirate punching game with teams and punching. I laughed so hard when I was first blasted out of the platforms

As immersive hardware & ecosystems evolve, EducationXR evolves hand-in-hand to support the ever-growing range of platforms. With today’s announcement and release of the @Meta #Quest3 , you will now be able to create and push your creations immediately from EducationXR.

[Alejandro Castedo @Ayf3l]

Incredible, this is something I have been waiting on for a long time. Combine this with XR glasses and 3D and my dream comes true

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

ChatGPT can now see, hear, and speak. Rolling out over next two weeks, Plus users will be able to have voice conversations with ChatGPT (iOS & Android) and to include images in conversations (all platforms).

In the past few years, unforeseen events impacted vocational skills training at the community college level throughout the US. A handful of affected schools looked to EducationXR to address not only immediate challenges, but also accelerated job skills training demand.

First claimed successful replication of LK-99

Accomplished by a team at the Huazhong University of Science and Technology and posted 30 minutes ago.

Why this is evidence:
The LK-99 flake slightly levitates for both orientations of the magnetic field, meaning it is not simply a magnetized piece of iron or similar 'magnetic material'. A simple magnetic flake would be attracted to one polarity of the strong magnet, and repelled by the other. A diamagnet would be repelled under either orientation, since it resists and expels all fields regardless of the polarity.

Caveats
There is no way to verify the orientation of the strong magnet in this video, also, there are yet to be published experimental measured values of this sample. Diamagnetism is a property of superconductors but without measured and verified data, this is just suggestive of a result.

Take-away
If this synthesis was indeed successful, then this material is easy enough to be made by labs other than the original research team. I would watch carefully for results out of Argonne National Lab, who are reported to be working on their own synthesis of a sample.

This overall corroborates two independent simulation studies that investigated the original Korean authors claim about material and crystal structure, and both studies supported the claims.

The attached video shows a small flake of their sample responding to an external magnetic field. I scroll through the video to skip to the relevant part.
