Immersive digital experiences have traditionally relied on specialized hardware such as VR headsets, creating friction for widespread adoption. Leia is taking a different approach: enabling depth-rich, spatial experiences on the devices people already use every day.
At Mobile World Congress Barcelona 2026, Leia will present its Immersity platform at the Netherlands Pavilion, demonstrating how smartphones, tablets, laptops, and monitors can deliver depth and presence, without requiring users to change their behavior or adopt new hardware.
Removing barriers to immersive adoption
Founded in 2014, Leia Inc. designs, develops, and licenses Immersity, a technology platform that combines Spatial AI software with Switchable-Display hardware. The platform enables devices to seamlessly switch between standard display and holographic projection modes, delivering lifelike depth and adding presence to digital content while preserving display quality for everyday use.
Rather than introducing new devices into the market, Immersity is designed to integrate into existing and future hardware from OEMs. This approach lowers adoption barriers and allows immersive experiences to fit naturally into familiar user workflows – making them practical, scalable, and ready for mass deployment.
Spatial intelligence on everyday screens
Immersity devices project true holographic depth, creating a realistic immersive effect that makes users feel part of the scene. According to Leia Inc., these experiences enable spatial intelligence: a next-generation AI-driven interaction in which digital content blends more naturally with the physical world.
The platform includes on-device mono-to-stereo conversion technology, enabling existing content to be viewed in real time with depth in an immersive way. This addresses a long-standing challenge in the immersive market, where the availability of native ‘3D’ content has often limited scalability and adoption.
Strong focus on smartphones and the mobile ecosystem
A central focus for Leia Inc. at MWC 2026 is mobile. While Immersity is already available on monitors, laptops and tablets, the company is now accelerating its efforts to bring immersive experiences to smartphones.
This focus reflects growing demand for richer mobile experiences that feel more connected, expressive, and spatial – without compromising performance or usability. Recent developments include customer adoption in display products and continued refinement of on-device rendering technologies. In parallel, Leia is forming alliances with mobile carriers and working closely with smartphone OEMs and telecom operators to support large-scale deployment across the mobile ecosystem.
During MWC Barcelona, Leia aims to connect with senior decision-makers across the mobile ecosystem to explore partnerships that can integrate immersive capabilities into everyday mobile devices.
Use cases across consumer and professional markets
Immersive experiences enabled by Immersity extend beyond entertainment. Leia highlights applications in immersive video calls, media viewing and sharing, gaming, productivity and professional workflows, where added depth and spatial perception can enhance communication and understanding.
By enabling immersive functionality without disrupting how people already use their devices, Leia positions Immersity as a practical step towards broader adoption of spatial computing technologies.
With approximately 120 employees and operations spanning multiple regions, Leia Inc. is preparing for further global rollout, using MWC Barcelona as a key platform to strengthen its position within the international mobile ecosystem.
For organizations looking to unlock depth-driven, spatial experiences on everyday devices, experience Immersity firsthand at MWC Barcelona 2026.
