The Attention-Aware Pipeline: Design Tensions from Making Attention Visible in XR
Announce Type: new Abstract: Where people look during shared activity carries coordination cues that speech and gesture cannot replace, but these patterns remain invisible to participants. XR headsets make gaze available as real-time input, yet few systems feed it back visually. We frame our work using the Attention-Aware Pipeline (Capture, Record, Revisualize), whose feedback loop means the systems visual response alters what users attend to next, triggering further responses.
WhiteTesseract: Reframing the Interpretation of Cultural Heritage through XR and Conversational AI
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Cultural heritage exhibitions often struggle to sustain attention and support reflective engagement. Physical exhibitions rely on fixed interpretive aids that lack adaptability to individual backgrounds or curiosity, and their effectiveness depends heavily on a visitor's Personal Context, prior knowledge, and cultural literacy. Meanwhile, digital exhibitions prioritize convenience and accessibility but risk weakening the Physical and Social Contexts that...
X-OP: Cross-Morphology Whole-Body Teleoperation via MPC Retargeting
Announce Type: new Abstract: Whole-body teleoperation is essential for scalable robot data collection in loco-manipulation tasks, yet existing approaches relying on exoskeleton suits or multi-camera setups impose prohibitive cost, complexity, and environmental constraints. Recent methods using a single extended reality (XR) device with end-to-end reinforcement learning policies partially address these limitations but require robot-specific retraining, suffer from out-of-distribution...
Bodyless Presence: Reconsidering the Minimal Self in Immersive Video
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Immersive video, namely 180-degree and 360-degree video designed to be viewed through head-mounted displays, constitutes an important boundary case between interactive VR and conventional two-dimensional video viewing for reconsidering self-experience in XR. In immersive video, the user can select the direction of the viewpoint through head rotation, while being unable to actively change the recorded environment through walking, approaching, grasping, or...
Flow-HOA: Generative Joint Optimization for Ambisonics Encoding via Flow Matching
Announce Type: new Abstract: Higher-Order Ambisonics (HOA) encoding from sparse, irregular microphone arrays remains a critical challenge for consumer spatial audio capture in immersive communication and XR. We propose Flow-HOA, a generative framework that jointly optimizes a multi-dimensional objective encompassing time-domain, spectral, and spatial fidelity while producing a deployable, time-invariant bank of Finite Impulse Response (FIR) encoding filters. Using conditional flow matching,...
Silurus/ooxml: Pixel-faithful Office documents, rendered in the browser
This entire codebase — Rust parsers, TypeScript renderers, tests, and tooling — was implemented by Claude (Anthropic's AI assistant) through iterative prompting. No human-written application code exists in this repository. A browser-based viewer for Office Open XML documents that renders to an HTML Canvas element.
What to expect from Google I/O 2026
What to expect from Google I/O 2026 We're sliding into developer conference season and one of the biggest events on the upcoming calendar is Google I/O. This year's edition is taking place on May 19 and 20.
Ask HN: Are you still using a Vision Pro?
Almost two years ago there was a thread on this (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40872102). I'm curious now that more time has passed what people think? I use it every day, approx ~95% of the days since it launched over 2 years ago.
The Morning After: Instagram will try to penalize 'unoriginal' posts
The Morning After: Instagram will try to penalize 'unoriginal' posts Meta is tweaking Instagram's recommendation algorithm to, it hopes, boost "original content" for photo and carousel posts on Instagram. The company tweaked Instagram's algorithm in 2024 to penalize accounts that recycle other accounts' Reels posts, but didn't expand the same protections to photo and carousel posts at the time. (Not that I particularly noticed any difference to the churn on my Reels, personally.)
Google will livestream The Android Show: I/O Edition on May 12
Google will livestream The Android Show: I/O Edition on May 12 Google I/O is just a couple weeks away, but in keeping with a semi-recent tradition, the folks over in Mountain View are kicking things off early by live streaming the Android Show: I/O Edition on May 12 at 1PM ET/10 AM PT. While Google hasn't released many details about what it's planning to show off, the company says 2026 "is going to be one of the biggest years for Android yet."
