For AI and XR developer Andre "Dre" Smith, virtual reality, brain-computer interface technology and AI are artist's tools.
And to describe him as "prolific", would be an understatement. Dre is always
exploring, experimenting and creating something new at the edge of immersive computing.
Dre's projects include apps, immersive experiences, games and real-time neurofeedback systems.
One of his most intriguing current projects, Octobot, is a multiplayer experience in which players use a brain-computer interface to outsmart a robotic octopus!
But there's also the Zenquarium app, which transforms a room into an AI-powered reef. As well as Hydroverse, a free (and highly addictive!) game in which players pilot an armed speedboat and battle to be the last one floating in tropical waters. Plus Dre's work in immersive medical technology. And his "Gridiron Hangout" in Horizon World...the list goes on!
In addition, Dre works as an independent consultant, with clients creating something new at the edges of immersive computing.
Dre talked about his background, offered a closer look at some of his games and apps, and offered some guidance on the use of AI as a tool to enhance creativity.
