XAR is the first Augmented Reality Autonomous World, a new species built on AR, AI and Crypto.
Over the decades, humans have created an enticing virtual world, while physical world progress has lagged. However, change is underway. Smartphones, powered by Apple’s ARKit and Google’s ARCore, are now ubiquitous AR devices, making augmented reality accessible to everyone. Major companies like Apple, Meta, Microsoft, and Google are investing in AR technology, and wearable tech will soon emerge to enhance our visual perception anytime, anywhere. Additionally, advancements in software, such as Google and Niantic’s Visual Positioning Systems (VPS), allow smartphones to accurately map coordinates, enabling persistent placement of virtual objects in real-world settings.
In this context, XAR aims to become a new platform for content and social interactions in the emerging Spatial Computing Era. While hardware and foundational software capabilities are in place, there’s a notable gap in native AR content and interactions. XAR envisions reshaping how people engage with one another, fostering a vibrant ecosystem for spatial computing experiences.
Imagine stepping into the vibrant realms of World of Warcraft, navigating the vast landscapes of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, or shaping the endless possibilities of Minecraft. Now, replace the virtual avatar with yourself, the digital realm with the world under your feet, and your controller with your phone or an headset. This isn't just play; it's a gateway to weaving your own epic narrative in the very fabric of reality.
This is an open world rooted in reality. Transform every corner of your surroundings into a game setting. Battle monsters within the towering skyscrapers, search for rare seeds on the lawn, summon your elite pet fish from the aquarium, and embark on special quests with friends in the dim light of the evening after sunset. Experience limitless gameplay alongside a massive community of players, as you enter a story shaped by all materials on the Earth and a vibrant web of participants across the globe.
This is also an autonomous world powered by blockchains. It is made up of fully composable building blocks, a gaming logic evolving through the collaborative efforts of players, and fully liquid assets.
Don't like the look of this NPC? Go ahead and create your own! If others like it, you can even sell the prototype. Think the levels are too easy? Design a hellish difficulty mode, and if players take it on, you'll earn operational rewards. Feel like a certain type of asset is undervalued? You can stockpile and become a financial mogul in this world. With each action meaningful and impactful, you are participating in the world’s evolution at every moment.
Explore the wonders, create the impossible, connect with one another!
