Stop. Look around.
Literally ... look around right now.
Imagine.
Imagine the physical space you're in right now — whether indoors or outdoors — being replicated into a digital version.
Now, imagine being able to be in that digital environment replica;
with your friend or relative who lives in another country or continent.
Do you feel it?
Do you feel the wonder?
Do you feel your imagination stretching?
Fact or Fiction?
Do you think it's possible for this to exist?
Well ... did people think the light bulb could exist before they saw one?

The Big Question.
What if video calls could be conducted in an immersive, interactable 3D environment?
Evolve with the evolution.
Technology is evolving, and we might have to evolve too.
The digital tools in our hands, allow us to connect and enhance the human experience,
in a way never seen before.
AI to VR
The mass accessibility to and adoption of Artificial Intelligence tools
has shown us a glimpse of technological paradigm shift.
Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, & "Spatial Computing", are lurking around the corner.
The new "video" call.
I'm aware that Apple's Vision Pro was announced just a few weeks back,
but long before that pivotal announcement ...
I worked on this project with a friend, to facilitate video-calling in a new way.
This project illustrates a glimpse of how to build a digital environment, for this exact purpose.
A "phygital" space.
What if you turned a physical space,
into a digital environment replica,
where you can traverse freely,
and have social interactions?
