Mixed Reality R&D

2022

In collaboration with Alchemy Immersive, this project explored undersea environments through the lens of spatial computing, using Magic Leap headsets to create a responsive, mixed-reality experience. Drawing on marine imagery and ecological narratives, the installation invited viewers to engage with the ocean as a living, data-rich space—dynamic, immersive, and reactive.

The work combined Notch.one real-time graphics software with body tracking technology to enable live interaction between audience members and digital content. Movements were captured and mapped into the scene, allowing the virtual environment to respond in subtle, fluid ways—mirroring the drift of currents or the schooling of fish. The integration of spatial computing pushed the experience beyond conventional VR, layering digital content seamlessly into physical space and offering a sense of presence that felt both intimate and expansive.
