I've had this zany idea for a while and I finally had the time to try it out. A GameBoy emulator that runs inside a Unity editor window so I can play while I make.

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

In 2025 I focused on me with lots of guidance from my son. Looking forward to all the possibilities 2026 will bring.

@bryonhammer @MetaQuestVR Just an experiment I wanted to try. But sounds like I should maybe turn this into something?

Bending my world into a nightmare on Quest 3's mixed reality passthrough. #Quest3 #VirtualReality #MixedReality #augmened #Meta @MetaQuestVR

@freeroamAR Love it!

[Greg Madisᯅn @GregMadison]

The standalone color passthrough is IMO the most promising direction for MR. I tested for fun some ideas over the weekend, the magic is there and it’s mesmerizing to play with.
Anyone with a Quest PRO who would like to try this?

@LordBron @Randomistic2838 @cynicle82 @oculus All the things?

Tomorrow is my first day at @oculus!

@dannyaroslavski @oculus Thanks!

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

@LordBron @oculus Stuff!

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

@prvncher Yup, yup, 100% on all of that. Wasn’t looking for a push button to rule them all just tinkered over a short break. :)

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

Was brushing up on some XR techniques and looked around for how the rest of the world approaches push buttons in VR. Found lots of uses of physics joints for the plunger travel. That adds overhead and delicate setups. So I decided to tackle it with math instead as a test.

@OttawaPete Hah! Love it!

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

One of my favorite parts of my career so far is how many amazing connections I've made along the way. People I'd help in an instant and who I feel equally have my back. GO TEAM!

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

@slukas Add my RoomMapper to get some occlusions going ;)

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

@Break_Ben Nice!

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

Should I wait for the Presence Platform to come out or go ahead and add static furniture mapping into my RoomMapper for Quest Passthrough?

[Bob Berkebile @pixelplacement]

Alright. RoomMapper is all fixed up for Oculus Integration v.34. Carry on.
