LogInNow that's Minecraft.
Minecraft fans would be happy to spend some time in a voxelized universe, but artist Sander Sneek doesn't need to imagine it: he painted his house with pixels, turning it into a voxel world.
He used Meta Quest's Depth API and Passthrough feed in a custom compute‑shader pipeline, coating his rooms in mixed reality in real time. Unfortunately, the result isn't as detailed as the original – balloon numbers become blobs, and flags on the wall simply disappear – but the idea is interesting. If the voxel area could be saved as a 3D environment, it would be pretty handy.
Sneek is the CTO at Wonderment, a company that designs AR, VR, and AI-powered experiences. The studio loves experiments with mixed reality, and you can find them on Sneek's X/Twitter if you are interested.
