Our mission at Magnopus has been to unite the physical and digital worlds with extraordinary experiences. Today marks a big step forward for us and anyone who wants to build a future where these cross-reality experiences are interoperable across devices and platforms. We’re open sourcing our Connected Spaces Platform. 🚀It’s now under the permissive Apache 2.0 free software license for any developer interested in more easily creating persistent, real-time spatial experiences connected across physical and digital, accessible across multiple platforms and devices. Our teams across the US and UK have worked on this technology for the past five years, at times with as many as 60 people. It’s been tested on public experiences and private betas with developers, it’s even been listed in TIME’s Best Inventions 2022. 🏆 Now, by going open source, we aim to contribute to the foundations for a more open and diverse spatial web that brings people together in shared experiences, and that communities can build on together. That’s what we’re truly excited about. Congratulations go out to the Magnopus team for their constant hard work on making this milestone happen. ❤️ Find out more here www.magnopus.com/csp

Thank you to the Los Angeles Times and The Los Angeles Times Entertainment for prominently featuring Holocaust Museum LA's newly launched Augmented Reality app that you can read about here. The app, an immersive learning tool that allows users to interact with a 3D model of the Nazi death camp Sobibor, was developed in partnership with Academy Award Winning Visual Development & Experience company Magnopus. Actor Ben Feldman serves as a holographic guide providing historical context and encouraging deeper exploration of the camp’s layout and daily life. Educating young students to think critically about the lessons of the Holocaust and its social relevance today is more crucial than ever. The AR app is available for free download in Apples App Store. We are grateful to the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles, Cbs Television City Studios and the SNIDER FAMILY FOUNDATION for their generous support.
