  • Building an OS for an AR device
    I'm trying to build a very simple version of an OS for myself. I'm currently designing a mock version of it in Unity. Take this popular example as reference: https://matthaeuskrenn.com/vr-os/. Source: over 1 year ago
  • A tech founder born in the Soviet Union compared metaverse hype to the communist propaganda he experienced as a child
    Check out Mattheus Krenn's VR-OS It's one of the projects built around a fully VR GUI for computing. Instead of monitors, the idea is you just use a headset. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Noob Questions about Customizing AwesomeWM (Tagging, Animations)
    While searching for a better workflow, I stumbled upon this prototype called VR-OS (https://matthaeuskrenn.com/vr-os/). What really stuck with me is the idea of distinguishing between the free floating space (360° to place your windows), and the "Deck" to the bottom with distinct slots to put windows into.

  • "3D Operating System" question
    The best you're going to see, until something is actually announced from a major player, is really just concept projects. Like VR-OS or Infinity Cube. Even those aren't really what I think you're asking about. The closest idea to what I think you mean would be basically Second Life or Garry's Mod in VR. Source: almost 3 years ago
