Massive Loop™ History

Massive Loop™ evolved from a research project at Human Mode in 2018. The goal of the research was to find ways to utilize Virtual Reality for practical business needs without requiring extensive programming or graphic design experience.

After an early prototype, our team embarked on an ambitious set of goals for the platform to make it usable to build experiences for shopping, collaborative design, product demonstration and more. The project continues to rapidly evolve today as we hear from businesses and individuals.
