You’ve seen what 𝗚𝗣𝗧-𝟲 𝗔𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮 can do for images, videos, 2D and 3D worlds. But what about a dimension beyond the flat screen? We wanted to put it to the test in spatial XR. But how? We directed an agent to build a Jarvis-style Earth interface that visualizes millions of real-time data points on @PICOXR’s new device, where you can interact with it. All real in-headset footage: ✈️ Live air traffic, earthquakes, satellites and the ISS, all updating in real time 🖐️ A globe you turn with your hands 🏙️ Tap any place and it becomes a 3D city on your table 📊 4 data panels open side by side in one app Why this matters: building for spatial is a different kind of problem from building for a flat screen. The model has to reason about depth, scale, hand input and layout in 3D space. Astra wrote the app from scratch as a native 𝗞𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗻 app using the PICO CLI, and the 3D cities stream in from @Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles via @CesiumJS A year ago, this would have taken a team months. Now one person can direct an agent and then walk around the result. Inspired by @bilawalsidhu’s open-source 𝗚𝗼𝗱’𝘀 𝗘𝘆𝗲 𝗩𝗶𝗲𝘄 and vibe-coded by @nigelhartmanxr How far can coding agents really go in 3D and spatial? We’re testing that live in our 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆. Bring your own app idea, and let’s talk about what frontier models can (and can’t) build. Link below👇 #AI #AgenticAI #XR #SpatialComputing #PICO

Have you also noticed a pattern in the latest @OpenAI 𝗔𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮 and @claudeai 𝗢𝗽𝘂𝘀 campaigns? Fewer benchmark tables. More 3D demos. 🗳️ The reason? A 3D world or workspace is more tangible than any chart. It creates a wow effect that images and video can't. So we're putting frontier models to the test ourselves, live. In our next @SensAIHackademy online open lecture, two hackathon winners who build with AI coding agents every day, @nigelhartmanxr and @SushantSrikrish, will live code 𝟯𝗗 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗮𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻, no headset needed. What you'll see: → An idea going from 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝗿𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝟯𝗗 𝗮𝗽𝗽, built and tested live on an emulator → Which 𝗖𝗟𝗜𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗖𝗣𝘀 actually work for 3D, and when to use which → What AI 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 in 3D and spatial, and how to fix it Whether you're a vibe coder, a creator or an app developer curious what AI can do beyond the flat screen, this one's for you 🙌 📅 October 21 🔗 Join free here: luma.com/3rzxf6v0?utm-source… #vibecoding #AI #3D #ClaudeCode #MCP #CLI #Astra #Codex #Opus

Getting to know the #AndroidDev and #Kotlin communities! 🚀 Come say hi at our booth at @droidconBerlin👋 We're here because something exciting is coming for the community, soft-launching a new program for Kotlin developers. I can't wait to share more. Stay tuned! Loved all the inspiring conversations and new connections at #DroidconBerlin yesterday❣️ Olga Ivanova Krzysztof Zając Klaus Greiner Fiorini (thanks for the #Flutter Intro) Christoph Rasulis Arvid Sprechert @GabRoXR

No way! 🤯 @lucas_martinic is pitching his vibe-coded app @Polyfork3d to @PalmerLuckey, @xprize and @Google leaders this Friday. Out of 26,000+ builders, he made the TOP 5, and he's closing in on a share of the $2M prize pool ✨

Still processing the Worlds in Action Hack last month: 64 projects. 8 tracks. 250+ builders. One weekend at SIGGRAPH.🚀 Creative minds pushing the frontier of 3D, world building, spatial intelligence, and AI - alongside our partners @PICOXR, @theworldlabs, @tripoai, @reactorworld, @fal @XGRIDS_OFFICIAL, and @ReactVisionXR. The venue (thank you, #MGStudio LA!) was a 10-min walk from the convention center and perfectly suited for a hackathon. From the "captain's deck," judges from @GoogleDeepMind, @Meta, @Lionsgate, @Sony, National Basketball Association (@NBA), and @ARealityEvent got a bird's-eye view of hundreds of hackers building in real time. Want to see the venue itself? Our partner Opus Lab 3D (thanks Lukasz Mirocha, PhD!) captured it as a 3D Gaussian Splat — robot navigating through the scene included 👇 Massive thanks to our team who worked months to pull this off, and to every partner, mentor, judge, and hacker who made it real. Which project would you like to see further developed? 👀 Full gallery: worlds-in-action-hack-02-la.… #worldsinaction #siggraph #siggraph2026

What's the perfect way to close out #SIGGRAPH Week and Worlds in Action Hack? Standing inside "The Wizard of Oz" at Sphere! 🔮 Our friends Ben Grossmann and the team at @magnopus and our instructor Vivek Reddy's @viga_et just pulled off one of the wildest virtual productions in history - taking a grainy 1939 model 4:3 film reel and blowing it up onto a 160,000 sq ft, 16K dome without losing a single frame of its soul. Every camera cut, every tight frame that used to hide half the room, had to be rebuilt and expanded with Imagen and Veo from @GoogleDeepMind so the story could wrap fully around you. No new dialogue. No new score. Just the top VFX teams and their new AI pipelines doing what conventional CGI methods never could, at a scale Hollywood has never attempted before. This is what happens when world-class production meets unprecedented superpowers! Absolute magic. 🌪️ More details are shared here in the behind-the-scenes: youtube.com/watch?v=1ZTEajxD…

170 hackers, 64 projects, one #SIGGRAPH weekend - and the interesting part wasn't the only output but how hackers pushed to put worlds into action! Teams combined stuff that we have never seen on the internet or at a hack before: 🌍 World models for explorable environments 📷 Gaussian splatting + reconstruction to bring real locations into 3D 🧊 Generative 3D for asset creation to be used in crazy ways 🎬 Generative media for characters, textures, video, VFX 🥽 XR / WebXR to make experiences spatial 🤖 Agents for in-world interactivity Tech partners included @theworldlabs @PICOXR @XGRIDS_OFFICIAL @tripoai @fal @reactorworld and @ReactVisionXR - glued together with Unity, Unreal, WebXR, Blender, ComfyUI, MCP workflows, and custom splat interaction toolkits. No two teams took the same path, but almost everyone ended up chaining multiple pieces of the spatial AI stack into one working pipeline — capture, generation, and real-time interaction, built in 24 hours. Next up: we're turning the strongest workflows into open kits and tutorials at @SensAIHackademy so more people can build with this stack. #SpatialAI #WorldModels #GaussianSplatting #GenerativeAI #3D #XR #WebXR #SIGGRAPH #Hackathon
