Ureka Labs is an ideas incubator. They are currently working on 2 projects.
The first is a social network for interior designing, think along the lines of a virtual “Pimp My Room”. Arrange/Buy new furniture, let your imagination run wild, see how your room looks without actually having to do it.
The second project is about monetizing online video. Ureka Labs wants to be able to impose virtual 3D objects into streaming video (in Real Time). It’s pretty ambitious, and amazing. Check out the video presentation below.
This interview was conducted during Barcamp Malaysia, a 2 day (26-27 July) un-conference attended by an amazing mix of startups, veteran entrepreneurs, bloggers, media and VCs. (Apologize for the long delay!)
