AWE USA 2025
As XR transitions from a game-centric niche to a platform for everyday life and work, empowering developers is key to unlocking its next wave of value. This talk introduces two breakthrough developer platforms—WebSpatial and SpatialML—that empower millions of developers to build intelligent, immersive applications using familiar workflows.
WebSpatial lowers the barrier for traditional web developers to enter XR by extending HTML/CSS/JS into 3D space. It bridges the gap between desktop/mobile web and spatial computing, enabling multitasking, AI integration, cross-platform deployment, and no-install instant use—without needing Unity or WebXR.
SpatialML redefines what’s possible in on-device AI. From data collection and training to runtime execution on headsets like PICO and beyond. Combined with our SecureMR framework, we ensure that privacy-preserving models can be deployed directly inside VR/MR devices.
This session outlines how AI and Web technologies can converge across four XR layers—Device, System, Capability, and Content—creating a path for developers to build spatial apps that are intelligent, adaptive, and widely accessible.
