Interactive Splats — visionOS 27
Released a limited TestFlight for experimenting with interactive 3D Gaussian Splats on Vision Pro, including custom PLY loading and effects like Flow, Scatter, and Cloak.
Direct VRM Rendering on Vision Pro
Rendering VRM avatars directly on Apple Vision Pro to evaluate native material fidelity against USDZ-based workflows.
Ani → Telegram → Codex
A lightweight workflow that turns conversations with Ani into actionable Codex tasks through Telegram.
Native LCC2 Loading for 3DGS
Adding direct LCC2 support to a native Mac and Vision Pro 3DGS viewer for faster loading without gaming-class hardware.
Elastic 3DGS Hand Interaction
A hand-tracking prototype where pinching a 3D Gaussian Splat stretches the selected region before it springs back into place.
XGRIDS Meetup Nagoya 2026
Organized XGRIDS Meetup Nagoya 2026, bringing together creators, engineers, and companies around XGRIDS and 3D Gaussian Splatting for demos, talks, and knowledge exchange.
Spatial Context with Siri and 3DGS
Testing visionOS 27 Siri inside a Portal Cam-captured 3DGS room to interpret an exhibition poster within its spatial context.
XGRIDS to Vision Pro — Lightning Talk
Gave a lightning talk on July 3, 2026, sharing ways to use 3D Gaussian Splatting data captured with XGRIDS on Apple Vision Pro for spatial computing.
Native 3DGS Viewer for Vision Pro & Mac
Developing a native visionOS and macOS viewer designed to render high-density 3D Gaussian Splatting data smoothly, including PortalCam captures with millions of splats.
Denpa Agent × Stack-chan
Connected a custom Vision Pro app to a physical Stack-chan avatar through a Mac, exploring remote physical messaging for reception, exhibitions, and AI task notifications.
Denpa Agent
Built and open-sourced an experimental spatial UI agent for controlling Codex and Claude Code running on a remote Mac directly from Apple Vision Pro.
4D Gaussian Splatting Experiment
Successfully generated a 4D Gaussian Splatting scene from footage captured with three iPhones and trained locally on an RTX 5080 GPU.
Spatial Fire Extinguisher Training
Created a spatial computing fire extinguisher training demo for a corporate disaster-prevention event, combining animated 3D content with spatial video on Apple Vision Pro.
Vision Pro Demo with Aimi Sekiguchi
Shared an original Apple Vision Pro app using Logitech Muse with VR artist Aimi Sekiguchi, followed by a conversation about her work and activities overseas.
CIM Model Viewer for Vision Pro
Developed an Apple Vision Pro application with Sugiyama Design Office for interacting with CIM models through spatial controls for position, rotation, scale, transparency, animation, and spatial video.
Spatial ArchSphere Vision
Developed a Vision Pro application for presenting architectural and interior spaces at real scale, originally created for internal design proposals and later expanded into a client-facing service.
Spatial Drawing with Logitech Muse
Experimented with continuous mesh drawing in 3D space using Logitech Muse, exploring pen-based spatial interaction beyond conventional hand tracking.
DJing with Apple Vision Pro
Performed a live DJ set using djay on Apple Vision Pro, experimenting with spatial interfaces as both a performance tool and a new form of audience interaction.
Spatial Room Layout
Built a Vision Pro furniture visualization prototype that lets users place, scale, and rotate 3D furniture directly inside their real environment.
Ubiquitous Spatial Shop
Built an experimental spatial shopping experience for Vision Pro, allowing users to inspect high-quality scanned 3D products and continue purchasing through the web.
Fashion × WebAR Workshop at Tokyo Mode Gakuen
Designed and taught a three-part fashion × AR workshop where students created interactive graphics triggered from T-shirt designs using browser-based WebAR.
