The challenge
Developers need a practical path from an AI capability to a working XR experience.
The work
We led the AI Building Blocks project at Meta Reality Labs, connecting Unity code samples, developer tooling and documentation. The work gave developers practical starting points for integrating object detection, language and speech into Quest experiences. Bringing those pieces together made the path from an AI capability to a working spatial application easier to follow.
The challenge extended beyond exposing individual AI features. Developers needed to understand how to connect them to an XR application, with sample code they could try and guidance that explained the integration. Our work brought these implementation and education pieces together.
- AI Building Blocks for the Meta Horizon ecosystem
- Developer tooling and XR code samples
- Documentation that connects platform capabilities to implementation
The result
Published platform tools and official developer documentation that teams can use as the starting point for their own AI-powered experiences.
