Unity quietly released a new hands package that introduces a hands subsystem enabling native hand tracking via OpenXR in vanilla Unity. It also fully supports Meta’s aim extension that adds far rays and pinch.
The sample hand mesh is getting fixed soon and xri samples are coming

Used NeRF to make a "Bullet Time" effect for a friend's wedding.
We set up 15 iPhones to capture slow-motion video, then used Instant-NGP to train a bunch of NeRFs on the frames.
..need to work on improving the quality / resolution a bit more.

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?

With so many #OpenXR devices on the market like #QuestPro, #LynxR1, and #HoloLens2, you can't afford to build your app for just one! #MRTK3 lets you build the *same app* on any supported OpenXR device with zero configuration change. 👇👇

We are grateful for the opportunity to work on ' fantastic Dawn Chorus concept, and its #Hololens app. Working closely with creative agency - where a self-playing piano, playing an AI-generated song acts as a fountain for holographic birds to land on.
