Mawari's Vision: Blockchain, Spatial Computing, and AI Avatars at the NYSE

The Problem Mawari Solves

• 💡 Spatial computing and XR technologies, like holograms and augmented reality, are often hindered by bulky headsets lacking processing power or slim devices with limited capabilities.
• 🎯 Mawari aims to solve this by enabling seamless, high-quality streaming of immersive holographic content to lightweight devices.

Frameless Media and Streaming

• 🖼️ Frameless media refers to content that interacts directly with the user's real-world environment, unlike traditional 2D media on screens.
• 🚀 Streaming 3D content requires distributing compute power and applications close to the end-user, a different approach than streaming 2D video.

Blockchain and Decentralized Infrastructure

• 🌐 Blockchain technology is used by Mawari to create a decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) for XR.
• 💰 This crowdsourced, community-led infrastructure scales faster and more affordably than traditional multi-billion dollar centralized investments, providing transparency and incentive alignment.
• 🤝 Mawari's Guardian Node network partners with telecommunications companies like T-Mobile and KDDI to build global compute density.

AI Avatars and Use Cases

• 🤖 AI agents will interact with users via voice and embodiment, making them more relatable than text-based interfaces.
• 💬 XR serves as the ideal user interface for AI, enabling interactions with AI avatars that have faces and voices.
• 🎭 Key use cases include virtual concerts and the creator economy (virtual YouTubers), with AI avatars deployed in customer service in Japan.

Future of XR and Mawari's Strategy

• 👓 Mawari anticipates a future where smart glasses replace smartphones, with all interactions occurring through these devices.
• 📈 The company's strategy involves proving success in XR-forward Asian markets like Japan and Korea before expanding to the U.S. and Western markets.
• 🚀 Mawari is building the foundational infrastructure for this ubiquitous XR future, akin to Akamai's role in the early internet.
