Diego di Tommaso is the co-founder of OVER, an ambitious startup seeking to merge the physical and virtual world through Augmented Reality (AR). And while this vision sounds very ambitious and something we have heard before, we will discover how OVER along with the help of an army of mappers has created the biggest 3D map of the world and made it possible to deploy AR experiences like never before. We will learn: * What is the positioning system capable of supporting the future of spatial computing * Why these “ maps” are way more than digital lands * The many ways in which you can use the OVER platform to create and deploy your own AR experiences * The importance of a decentralized system when creating a map of the world Subscribe to XR AI Spotlight weekly newsletter 👉 https://xraispotlight.substack.com/ OUR SPONSOR Visit ⁠⁠Meshy.ai⁠⁠ and use the code "XRAI20" to get 20% discount on your subscription *** CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST ⁠💼 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Linkedin [https://www.linkedin.com/in/diego-di-tommaso/]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website [https://www.overthereality.ai/]⁠⁠⁠   *** CONNECT WITH ME 🐤⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X (Twitter) [https://twitter.com/GabRoXR]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠ 💼 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Linkedin [https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabriele-romagnolixr/]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link-in Bio [https://beacons.ai/gabroxr]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   *** PAST EPISODES 🎙️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Show Website⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.xraispotlight.com/] 🟢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube [https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRuoUmWO_pPu1hSaRm3BTuTGTjklXS4yG&si=SVG9Tg8a5uhhKSL-]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🍎⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcast [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/xr-ai-spotlight/id1718315002]

David Marak has been active in XR since the early days of Google Cardboard and the first prototypes of augmented reality. Six years ago, he co-founded the immersive studio Yord, which has since expanded worldwide and is now recognized as one of the top Immersive App development companies globally. During this journey, Yord survived and thrived through a lot of ups and downs and he is now facing a new challenge and opportunity: the intersection between XR and AI. Today we will look at * Yord client’s base and how AI has impacted their pipeline * We learn about the most exciting and rewarding project David has worked on and why * His thoughts on digital agencies moving from client’s work to product * How the team has adapted and reacted to the rise of interest in AI Subscribe to XR AI Spotlight weekly newsletter 👉 https://xraispotlight.substack.com/ OUR SPONSOR Visit ⁠⁠Meshy.ai⁠⁠ and use the code "XRAI20" to get 20% discount on your subscription *** CONNECT WITH DAVID ⁠💼 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Linkedin⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/marakdavid/] ⁠🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠ [https://yordstudio.com/]   *** CONNECT WITH ME 🐤⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X (Twitter) [https://twitter.com/GabRoXR]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠ 💼 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Linkedin [https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabriele-romagnolixr/]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link-in Bio [https://beacons.ai/gabroxr]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   *** PAST EPISODES 🎙️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Show Website⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.xraispotlight.com/] 🟢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube [https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRuoUmWO_pPu1hSaRm3BTuTGTjklXS4yG&si=SVG9Tg8a5uhhKSL-]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🍎⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcast [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/xr-ai-spotlight/id1718315002]
