Nimo Planet has unveiled its spatial computing system for productivity apps that you can use in a private multi-screen virtual workspace.
San Francisco-based Nimo Planet has launched its Nimo Operating System (Nimo OS) and Nimo Core compact computer. These new offerings, along with the previously unveiled Nimo Glass, form a comprehensive spatial computing system designed to provide a personalized, multi-screen workspace experience for the hybrid workforce.
The Nimo Planet system combines proprietary hardware and software to deliver a power-user experience for productivity applications. The pocket-size Nimo Core compute device and the virtual, private display provided by Nimo Glass enable professionals to enjoy the benefits of a multi-monitor setup without being confined to a traditional desk.
Nimo Planet CEO Rohildev Nattukallingal conceptualized the system after finding usability and portability of smart devices limiting.

“Nimo Planet’s technology is equipping the modern workforce with the same luxuries of a multi-monitor setup in a desk-free form factor,” said Nattukallingal, in a statement. “The common complaint from professionals that work across multiple locations, often daily, is having to routinely compromise their workspace and productivity when juggling devices like smartphones, tablets and laptops. The current solutions for mobile computing limit our ability to stay efficient, organized and comfortable while on the go. Nimo is deploying spatial computing in a unique and streamlined way to change this model, providing an enterprise-class workspace wherever they go.”
Nimo Core’s compact form factor is 63mm in width, 43mm in length, and 23mm in thickness. The custom rendering system enables resource efficiency, reducing CPU and memory usage. It positions 2D applications in varying depths to render up to six high-fidelity 3D screens within the physical world. This systematically optimizes performance and battery life, and minimizes heat generation, ensuring the device remains comfortable during multitasking.
The Nimo Core device incorporates a user-centric design with a trackpad and Air Mouse, a handheld navigational tool, to facilitate easy access to Nimo OS applications. Users can navigate popular workplace applications intuitively, make customized screen adjustments, and connect input devices like a mouse, keyboard, or trackpad.
“As workers and businesses continue to operate in diverse settings, Nimo Planet is ensuring full suite workstations are available with ease of access no matter where
