In the recent WWDC Apple announced great news regarding Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). The first, is the launch of new computers prepared for these technologies, the second is that they have improve the 3D graphics with Metal 2, but the most interesting is what has not been announced, Apple does not launch its own VR platform, nor its own HMD (Virtual reality glasses).

Virtual Reality is gradually becoming a reality within the reach of everyone. Now Google has taken a big step to make it possible, Daydream. This new platform from the creators of Android, aims to turn each of our smartphones into an RV set.

Daydream consists of a Headset, a remote controller and a platform for the software. But it goes further, Google pretends that the next generation of phones is really prepared to offer VR seriously. So little by little we will see how the manufacturers will launch their new devices as Daydream Ready, or ready for the future.

At MooKan we are convinced that the future of communications goes beyond text, image or video; We believe that the virtual experiences with their multiple options of freedom and interaction are the solution that will complement the existing media taking them to a new level.

That is why today we have taken an important step. After publishing some articles and descriptions, images and videos of our works, today we launched the first free virtual experience, so you can prove for yourself what 3D Real Time brings over other media.

Real Time Render is a great tool that allow us to live experiences in a much more natural way, giving us the freedom to interact with the environment, to move freely and to pay attention to the things that interest us.

This doesn't mean at any point that other directed and closed methods as the cinema are loosing its value. Cinema allow us to transmit in a very direct way and the viewer only needs to pay attention to what we want to communicate. Right now in Moøkan we are recording video footage of our projects to offer both communication options.

We want to get closer to you, talk the same language. Thus that reason we actually offer our services and client support in English, Spanish and Chinese (Mandarin). 

Now we extend part of our multicultural profile to our Website, connecting with all the international Spanish speaker communities through the translation of all the website and its content. 

This new option will setup automatically the language according to your browser preferences or your location. If you wish to change it use the language tab on the top right side of this web. To keep your settings, you can register and your preferences will be saved for future visits.

We hope you enjoy it!

We love Sketchfab, and we would like to share it with you. Sketchfab is a website to share 3D models as we share video in Youtube or Vimeo. It is a light 3D engine on the web that is perfect to show 3D models and sites. It is a fantastic tool for artists and it is becoming popular also for museums, to share their collections with all the world. Some models can be downloaded to share the 3D files, so other artists can use them for their own creations.

This weekend, 6th and 7th of May, we are excited to participate in the Shantou Industrial Design Mayor Cup Fair, an exhibition where the results of the First Shantou Industrial Design Competition will be showed. The city of Shantou, located in the east of Guangdong province, close to Fujian province, is well-known from its industry, a big part of it based on the copy market. Now their industrial leaders want to change that and bring design talent to the locality. One of the first’s steps is this design competition and exhibition with more than 100 designs for the future category and another 200 designs that are already being produced.

Shantou Local Industry Association have invited us to join the exhibition and collaborate with local creators with our Real Time 3D team to help them to bring their designs to reality.

See you there!

Moøkan is growing, step by step. Today we launch our website and blog, to show and share our working experience through it.

We would like to talk about the projects we are developing, the tools we use, techniques and tips we learn during our work, and the process we develop. A place where to share and learn with other developers and creators and our followers, as we have learned in many other websites.
