Build for the future with the Android XR Developer Catalyst Program — Apply now!

The Android XR team announced the Android XR Developer Catalyst Program to foster innovation in the XR ecosystem. This program aims to support developers in creating new XR experiences for wired glasses and intelligent eyewear. The program targets applications in media, gaming, productivity, and health, encouraging diverse use cases. Developers accepted into the program will receive valuable resources including hardware development kits. The program offers technical support through dedicated forums and access to specialized resources. Participants can also apply for non-recoupable grants to accelerate their project development. Developers can build with Kotlin, the Jetpack XR SDK, Unity, Unreal Engine, or Godot. Existing XR Experiments and Samples provide inspiration for potential projects. Applications for the program are open to developers planning to publish within the next 6-12 months. The application deadline for the program is June 30th at 11:59 PM PDT. The Android XR team looks forward to seeing the innovative apps developed through this program.
