Wynd has a new home air purifier that can clean the air in a small home in under 30 minutes and can be paired with a machine learning powered air quality monitor to show you what's in the air around you. I asked Ray Wu, founder and CEO of Wynd, a bunch of questions about it all.

Experimenting with art and creativity in a collaborative piece is a fantastic way to explore augmented/mixed reality! My wife and I visited Onedome's Unreal Garden in San Francisco and I think it's a shining example of combining art and AR in a beautiful way.

Estimote have been creating super pretty Bluetooth beacons since 2013, helping spot the location of people and their phones in indoor situations. They've got a new LTE beacon that can report its indoor and outdoor position, so I asked Jakub Krzych, CEO & Co-Founder of Estimote, to give us the lowdown.

Observer Analytics have a platform coming soon to help VR/AR devs improve their apps using aggregated data on how people are interacting with their experiences. Lucas Toohey, CEO and co-founder, gives the lowdown on analytics in VR/AR and how their platform works.

I'm a fan of the blocky-style voxel art reminiscent of Minecraft and 8-bit games. The team at Phoria have taken it to a new level with shareVOX — a way to create voxel art together in AR, in real time, on your phone! Trent Clews-de Castella, co-founder of Phoria, was kind enough to share what they're up to with shareVOX and more in the lead up to Magnify World Melbourne.

Not only can the Plattar's AR platform create iOS and Android AR apps, they've now released a WebXR Device API that will start bringing AR to the web via their platform too! Rupert Deans, CEO and founder of Plattar, shared some details with Dev Diner on the exciting news ahead of Magnify World Melbourne.
