Celestial discovery, through a gesture

Point.
Discover.

Meet AstroGest: celestial identification through natural pointing gestures. Designed to debut in Umbra, within the Reality Modulation framework.

The interaction

The oldest way to ask “what’s that?”

Everyone has pointed at the sky and wondered. AstroGest turns that instinct into an answer: no phone held up to the stars, no menus, no searching — just a gesture you already know.

  1. 01

    Point

    Raise your hand and point toward something in the sky — a bright star, a planet, a hazy patch of light.

  2. 02

    Hold

    Hold the gesture for a moment. That brief pause is how you say “this one,” so a casual wave doesn’t trigger anything.

  3. 03

    Discover

    See what you’re pointing at: its name and a few essentials, placed near the object in your view.

Try the idea

Point, hold, discover — right here.

Try it: hover over a light and hold still — or press and hold on touch. A ring fills while you hold; move away or lift your finger to cancel. Prefer not to hold? Use Identify.

Point at a light to discover what it is.

Where it debuts

Meet Umbra.
Discover with AstroGest.

Umbra is Reality Modulation’s celestial eyewear — a classic silhouette with a tethered design, being developed to bring the sky closer. AstroGest is designed to be how you ask it what you’re seeing.

The Umbra experience

The sky you know,
seen like never before.

Umbra is being designed to place celestial wonders in your real surroundings — Saturn over a mountain you’re standing beneath, the Moon where it actually is. AstroGest lets you point and learn what’s there.

Reality Modulation

AR adds to reality.VR replaces reality.RM transforms reality.

AstroGest is a feature, Umbra is the eyewear, and Reality Modulation is the company and framework behind both. Its promise is simple: See the unseen. It’s always been there.
