PICO has announced a partnership with the Blender Foundation. As a supporter of Blender’s OpenXR development, PICO will collaborate with Blender to improve virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) experiences. This partnership will open up new creative options for artists and developers in the global 3D community, providing advanced VR and MR tools.
PICO is the first XR platform to team up with Blender to improve the 3D creation process in virtual reality. Both PICO and Blender aim to change how 3D content is created. By combining PICO’s expertise in XR hardware and software with Blender’s powerful open-source tools, this partnership is designed to:
- Unleash Innovative XR Creation Tools: Empower artists and developers to transcend the limitations of traditional mouse and keyboard interfaces.
- Deliver Intuitive, Immersive and Efficient Workflows: Drastically improve creative productivity through streamlined processes.
- Drive Widespread OpenXR Adoption: Champion the OpenXR standard to ensure cross-platform compatibility.
Jessie Zhang, Head of Partnerships at PICO XR says, “At PICO, we are committed to supporting the Blender Global Open-Source Community and fostering the flourishing 3D creation ecosystem. This partnership allows us to not only enhance 3D creation tools, but to foster a community where every artist and developer can bring their unique immersive vision to life and connect with a global audience through OpenXR.”
