We got a 1st and 2nd place in the XRCC Berlin hackathon with Public transport in AR (built with Reality Import)!

I'm really happy to share that we got 1st place in the 'Visitor Companion' track and 2nd place in the 'Spectacles Tech Layer' track at the XRCC Berlin hackathon today!

We built upon our earlier online entry (https://www.reddit.com/r/Spectacles/comments/1t62jn8/made\_it\_to\_the\_xrcc\_berlin\_finals/) by integrating Berlin's public transport data and adding realtime vehicle tracking, all based on the Reality Import platform we're building to make it easy for developers to create experiences such as this with any city data.

Tip of the hat to my teammate Julian Plak for his awesome work on this!

And massive compliments to Liam Mason who took 1st place in the 'Spectacles Tech Layer' track and 1st place in the 'Training' track with DartsMate => https://www.reddit.com/r/Spectacles/comments/1um7vqt/dartsmate\_built\_with\_scolia\_for\_xrcc26/. Epic job!

XR Developer News - June 2026 (AWE, Snap SPECS, WWDC visionOS 27, XREAL Aura and more!)

With AWE and WWDC happening in the same month, you can be sure it's peak XR time. Snap announcing SPECS, Apple showing visionOS 27, XREAL Aura getting closer to launch, Godot being omnipresent and a major Epic event, there's plenty in this month's roundup before we head into the slow summer period.

This week I'll be visiting XRCC Berlin as a finalist in the Snap Spectacles track, so let's catch up if you're there as well! We'll be showing off a developer platform we're working on for bringing city data into augmented reality on smart glasses and mobile, so let me know if you're curious what we're working on and we'll set something up.

Snap Blog: Inside the First Spectacles Developer Bootcamp

Unfortunately I wasn't able to make it myself, but judging from the posts I've seen about it from people attending, must have been a really nice event!

Made it to the XRCC Berlin finals!

We're working on this Spectacles Lens for showing and interacting with public transport data, and submitted it to the XRCC Berlin hackathon. Got through to the finals!! Looking forward to seeing some of you there in June!

We're working towards publishing the Lens, so hopefully you can all try it soon.
