Crunchfish partner with SpectreXR for interaction with virtual objects

2022-12-15|

Crunchfish and SpectreXR have signed evaluation agreements for each other’s software products to enable a joint offering to the AR/VR market. Crunchfish’s XR Skeleton products integrated with OctoXR from SpectreXR makes it is possible to enable any AR/VR device with a powerful object interaction solution in a very short time.

Crunchfish’s XR Skeleton has successfully been integrated into SpectreXR’s OctoXR product to showcase gesture interaction with virtual objects. One of the most exciting things about using hands in AR/VR is enabling users to interact with the virtual world like in real life. The core of this is the ability to grab and manipulate objects, which require both a robust hand tracking technology as well as interaction components that enable all the dynamics and physics behind virtual objects. A joint solution by Crunchfish and SpectreXR will significantly reduce the time to develop interactive AR/VR software systems and apps.

Crunchfish XR Skeleton provides hand tracking capabilities to AR/VR devices by analysing the image stream from the camera sensor(s) and then tracking 21 points on each hand with high precision. These 42 coordinates are then used to enable interaction with virtual objects.

It is very complex to design and develop virtual objects in AR/VR. The objects appear in three dimensions and also need to look and feel as realistic as in real life, which requires advanced software and very specific skills.

SpectreXR are specialists in developing and creating new and innovative solutions across multiple platforms using XR technologies. The flagship product OctoXR, includes a library of interaction components that are modular, composable and scalable, that can be integrated into existing architectures or run standalone.

“One of our most important long-term goals has always been to bring OctoXR into AR technology and when Crunchfish introduced their XR Skeleton we knew that this integration is a big step towards that. Bringing hand interactions into AR is a significant milestone and we are happy that it will add extra value to our present and future users and projects”, says Ivan Rajkovic, CEO at SpectreXR.

“I was very impressed by how fast XR Skeleton could be integrated into OctoXR and get to a working demo. The combination of Crunchfish’s XR Skeleton and OctoXR enables a powerful solution that may shorten the time to market for many of our customers”, says Joakim Nydemark, CEO at Crunchfish Gesture Interaction.

Crunchfish engaging with payment experts Lipis Advisors

Crunchfish is a technical pioneer in the world of offline payments and active in several markets globally. Crunchfish is seeking to develop thought leadership pieces focused on providing insights on offline payment system design and security from a practical implementation perspective. Crunchfish has engaged payment experts Lipis Advisors to research and write two white papers to explore the topic of offline payments.

Over the last five years, interest in offline payments by central banks and other payment system providers has skyrocketed. Offline use is now considered a core feature of a retail Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) and major central banks such as RBI, ECB and Bank of England are exploring offline payment functionality in their respective CBDC research projects and proof-of-concepts (PoCs). Additionally, offline functionality is increasingly viewed as essential for commercial real-time payment systems to maximize operational resilience. Despite increased interest in this area by central banks and payment system providers, there is a lack of awareness around the practical design and technology considerations around implementation.

The overall theme of this white paper series is “Enabling offline payments in an online world. The first white paper will be published in January 2023 with a focus on “Design choices for offline payments”. In March 2023, the second white paper on “Offline payments security” will follow. The white papers will be co-branded public documents, with research carried out independently by Lipis Advisors and sponsorship of the research by Crunchfish. As reference, please find the white paper about Decoding CBDC – Entering the next phase of CBDC exploration
