📢 Call for applications! 🌟 We're introducing the Galaxy XR Launchpad, an innovation initiative where we commit $100,000 in studio time to take one selected team's spatial computing concept from idea to working prototype for the Samsung Galaxy XR, in two months. What that means for the selected team: roughly 500 hours of design, development, and production work from our team, plus a Samsung Galaxy XR headset. Open to organizations registered in the US, UK, or UAE. 👉 To apply and learn more about the programme, eligibility, and rules: https://launchpad.rpr.to Selection is merit-based, evaluated on business case, fit for the Galaxy XR and Android XR platform, AI/Gemini relevance, feasibility, organizational readiness, and commercial potential. Why are we doing this? Because far too often we find that the right idea exists, but it never gets built because there's no proof of concept to unlock the investment. This programme changes that. If you have a concept, don't hesitate to pitch your idea. If you know someone who should, share this with them. Applications close June 28, 2026. Excited to see what ideas are out there. *$100K in RPR services. This is not a cash award. Christine Ladd, Cheri Malo, MBA, RAPS, RDN, Ben Stein, Paul McGuire, Vinny DaSilva, J.P.

One day left to vote for RPR and Abbott for an AWE Auggie Award! 🏆 We built two Mixed Reality games for the Samsung Galaxy XR headset to help with distraction therapy during blood donations. Why should you care? Donors put on the headset and explore interactive worlds of Intergalactica and Zen Garden, making the experience easier and fun. A better experience means more repeat donors and more life-saving blood reaching the patients who depend on it. It takes about 30 seconds to vote, and we'd really appreciate your support: Step 1: Register free at https://auggies.awexr.com/  Step 2: Vote for us in both categories 👇 👉 Best Healthcare and Wellness Solution: https://lnkd.in/d4nsEjun 👉 Best Societal Impact: https://lnkd.in/dWajRACu Thank you! 🙏

One week left to vote for RPR and Abbott for an Auggie this year! Would love your support. Anxiety stops millions of people from donating blood every year. We're working with Abbott to change that, using the Samsung Electronics Galaxy XR headset. And this project has been nominated for an AWE Auggie Award! 🏆 Now, your vote can help push it forward. It only takes about 30 seconds, but it could make a real difference, just like every blood donation has the power to save a life. Instead of staring at a needle, donors put on a headset and get immersed in interactive, gamified worlds of Zen Garden and Intergalactica, making the donation experience calmer and more relaxed. Calmer donors come back more often, which means more donations and more lives saved. This project has been nominated in two categories: ✅ Best Healthcare and Wellness Solution  ✅ Best Societal Impact Public voting closes May 14, and we'd love your support. Here's how: Step 1: Register at https://auggies.awexr.com/ (it's free) Step 2: Vote for us in both categories using the links below. 👉 Best Healthcare and Wellness Solution: https://lnkd.in/d4nsEjun 👉 Best Societal Impact: https://lnkd.in/dWajRACu Thanks for your support!

What a weekend! Couldn't be prouder of our very own Sam Field, who crossed the finish line at the London Marathon (one of the Abbott World Marathon Majors), in 03:49:21. Meanwhile, some of the team was over at the #TCSLondonMarathon Running Show with Abbott. While there, Omead Sinai modeled the Samsung Galaxy XR headset for BBC Sport's Gabby Logan. It was an action packed weekend demonstrating the potential of Abbott’s Mixed Reality Program for distraction therapy to ease blood donation anxiety! Big thanks to everyone who made this weekend happen. #MixedReality #XR #SpatialComputing #DigitalHealth #DistractionTherapy #BloodDonation #LondonMarathon2026 #BBCSport #ImmersiveTech #HealthTech #GameForGood

We won a Webby. 🏆 Farms of the Future AR took home People's Choice in the Corporate Social Responsibility category at The Webby Awards. Regenerative agriculture, made tangible through a WebAR game, two AI brand ambassadors, and a gesture-based takeover of OUTERNET London. Built for McCain Foods alongside Gravity Road, who led the campaign. To everyone who voted: thank you. Genuinely. People's Choice means a lot. 🙌 👉 See how we built it: https://lnkd.in/dfPFa7rK #TheWebbyAwards

We built a game where you farm virtual potatoes and turn them into fries. And it got nominated for a #Webby Award. 🏆 Farms of the Future AR, built for McCain Foods alongside Gravity Road who led the campaign. Nominated in Websites & Mobile Sites - Corporate Social Responsibility. If you feel like supporting it, voting is open (and it's a quick one) 👉 https://lnkd.in/ehhP7bSV The idea: bring regenerative farming to life through immersive experiences, making it playful and tangible. So we created a WebAR game with two AI brand ambassadors: Vera, a friendly farm guide, and Wormy, a soil expert with a serious fry obsession. Then we reimagined the game into a gesture-based two-player experience on the big screens at OUTERNET London, Bluewater Kent, Bullring Birmingham, and Arndale Manchester. Huge props to everyone who made this one happen. 🙌 #WebbyAwards #WebbyNominee #AR #immersive
