About me

My name is Katsuomi Kobayashi, also known as "korinVR" (he/him). I am a software engineer and technical director specializing in VR. I got an Oculus Rift in 2013 and began creating VR experiences as a hobby, which eventually became my main profession. After working for 7 years on location-based VR entertainment and Meta Quest app development, I founded my own development studio, FrameSynthesis Inc. I have been a speaker at Japan's largest XR conference, XR Kaigi (2020-2024), and the largest game developer conference in Japan, CEDEC (2021-2023). While I primarily develop with Unity, I am also a co-organizer of Godot Meetup Tokyo, a community event for the Godot game engine. I am also a co-author of the "VR Content Development Guide 2017."
