Solution

L+R developed Media View, a mixed-reality application exclusively for Meta Quest. Designed and built in-house, the app provided an immersive experience that leveraged spatial computing. In alignment with Meta’s open ecosystem strategy, L+R made Media View open-source, providing documentation to support developers & digital product teams in building their own spatial apps.

Impact

L+R’s contribution supported Meta Quest's position in spatial computing, with Media View serving as a model for design and development teams creating future applications. By providing access to the app’s source code, mobile developers can explore new possibilities, aligning with Meta’s vision of advancing spatial technology.

The Bottom Line

Media View explored how people interact with media through emerging interface patterns. The larger challenge is making new technology useful in the moments where attention is already divided. That is where L+R connects strategic design, technical execution, and meticulous craft to make emerging technology a practical advantage, with AI used only when it strengthens real applications.
