XR Commandment #7 - Use the Space, Not Just the Screen
Designing XR for depth and motion: spatialize the interface, encourage movement, and four principles that keep a headset experience from feeling flat.
XR Commandments
A series of hard-won principles for building immersive experiences that work.
XR Commandment #9 - Context, Not Just Content
Sunlight, darkness and congested 5G can sink a flawless XR activation. Four principles for designing around real-world context and testing on site.
XR Commandment #8 - Engage All the Senses
Visuals alone do not create immersion. Why audio is decisive, and how touch, scent and physical props raise the impact of an XR activation.
XR Commandment #4 - Make It Feel Like Magic
Perceived value must beat perceived friction: how loading times, AR detection and VR controls decide whether an audience stays or walks away.
XR Commandment #1 - Deliver Real Value, Not Tech Hype
XR adds friction: downloads, headsets, unfamiliar interfaces. If the value behind the technology is not obvious, users will not accept the trade.
XR Commandment #2 - Know Your Goals and Track Them
Why XR activations should be measured like any other campaign: hidden polls, in-experience choices, and the audience data an immersive activation can capture.
XR Commandment #5 - Don't Forget Social Sharing
If users can't share it, they will forget it. Why shareable assets belong in the campaign design from day one instead of bolted on after the build.
XR Commandment #3 - Make It Simple and Accessible
XR projects are assumed to be complex and expensive. Why one-step experiences often deliver more value, and how to keep an activation accessible.
XR Commandment #6 - Don't Just Replicate Reality
Why replicating your real store in VR produces a poor experience, and how imagination and impossible spaces make far better virtual environments.
XR Commandment #10 - Don't Make Your Users Sick
Comfort decides whether an XR experience succeeds. What Apple's 180-degree 8K Metallica film gets right, and how to test for motion sickness early.
