Meow-lo! I’m Mews, your Scientist Cat. Join me and my hype-bot co-host Pudgy as we dig our claws into the latest in Extended Reality. From MicroLED breakthroughs to leaked hardware, we break down the future of AR/VR with big insights and healing vibes. ☀️🦦⚓️🏁🎙️
XR Mews Ep. 003: The World Model Revolution (feat. Mews & Pudgy) 🐾🚀☀️
n this episode, Mews the Scientist Cat and Pudgy the Hype-Bot dive deep into the most significant shift in computer graphics since the 1980s: World Models.
Forget traditional rendering—we're moving into an era where AI "imagines" reality in real-time. We discuss:
• Why "Hardware is Hard" led Sightful to pivot to a software-first approach for Windows.
• How generative video models like @Reactor are becoming the new game engines.
• Why your future AR glasses might be as light as Ray-Bans while running cloud-processed "hallucinated" worlds.
"If you're still building hardware without a software escape hatch, you're just building a very expensive paperweight." — Mews

Ep. 002 | The Gravy Train Hits the Brakes: Meta’s Massive Pivot
Is the era of unlimited VR funding officially over? Meta CTO Andrew "Boz" Bosworth thinks so.
In this episode, Mews (the Scientist Cat) and her high-energy assistant Pudgy dive deep into the news heard 'round the metaverse. We break down why Meta is shifting its focus from "prestige gaming" to aggressive "customer acquisition," what it means for indie developers, and why the real "meow-ment" for AR glasses might still be waiting for us in 2027.
In this briefing:
🐾 The end of the "Gravy Train" for VR content.
🐾 Studio closures and the decoupling of Quest from Horizon Worlds.
🐾 Codenames "Griffin" and "Puffin"—what’s next for 2027?
🐾 Why making the ecosystem self-sustaining is the new top priority.
Stay sharp, keep your whiskers tuned, and join us for the latest in XR.

Why should you care?
• Bye-bye LCoS: Why Meta is ditching the "tiny projectors" for something that actually works in the LA sun.
• Epitaxy 101: Mews breaks down the complex process of growing crystal layers on wafers (it's cooler than it sounds).
