Shadnam Khan, co-founder and CEO of Multiset AI, explains how visual positioning gives physical spaces a coordinate system that phones, headsets, drones, and robots can understand.Shad breaks down: the real trade-off between each capture format and why most maps fail on the capture plan rather than the scanner, why a better-looking map does not localize better, how one walk produces both a splat a human reads and a map a machine localizes against, and where visual positioning genuinely does not work.

Tomas Cupal, creator of Blockworks, joins us to unpack what it takes to move a VR project from Meta Quest to Apple Vision Pro. Tomas explains how Blockworks evolved into a mixed reality sandbox, the technical reality of building in Unity for visionOS, including Apple’s RealityKit rendering pipeline and the limitations developers must work around. Tomas also shares candid lessons on launching into Vision Pro’s small gaming market, finding visibility through creators, and why he has decided to move on to the “next big thing”.

Sonny Cirasuolo, co-founder of Story Splat, explains how Gaussian Splatting can become more than a beautiful 3D capture. Story Splat turns splats into interactive, web-based experiences and is being used by Hyatt Regency Tamaya to create a navigable resort experience and help sales teams visualize event spaces without physically rebuilding them. He also explores emerging applications in journalism, cultural preservation, education, real estate and hospitality, plus the remaining barriers around capture, and VR. A practical look at the tools and business models that could make spatial storytelling usable beyond 3D specialists.
