A Decentralised Augmented/Virtual Reality Exchange
Virtual reality is something that has been on the tip of everyone’s tongues over the last few years. Facebook, Google and many other companies are all experimenting with VR/AR concepts.
Whenever I imagine virtual reality, I always reminisce about the film Total Recall. Arnold Schwarzenegger plays the role of an average Blue collar worker, Douglas Quade. Travelling home from work he sees an advertisement for Rekall, a company which Augments your dream holiday/fantasy and turns it into a reality. He becomes intrigued and ultimately decides to takes a virtual trip to Mars as an undercover secret agent, or does he? Don’t worry I won’t spoil the film for you if you haven’t seen it!
I love the concept though. Being able to feel like you are in any place in the world, just think of the possibilities! Picture this. You’re having a super stressful day at work and you can’t wait to finish, because you know that when you get home you’re spending the evening in the Bahamas. Relaxing on a sandy beach with a Pina Colada. Knowing that I have the option to be on a beach every day would make my day less stressful. To take part in it would be amazing.
The Augmented/Virtual reality space is evolving. Just think of a future where you can buy and sell experiences. A memory you have had in the Bahamas, relaxing on a white sandy beach, I would be first in line to buy. Live events would be streamed around the world to people in their homes, who would also be experiencing it live. The future is almost here. It’s almost time for a designated sand room inside my house.
Cappasity is a decentralised Augmented/Virtual reality exchange. Allowing the creators of memories and users wanting to experience specific memories, to exchange content within their marketplace.
Cappasity have opened up the door to whole world of new possibilities. Due to the transparency of the blockchain, it is possible to see who owns the intellectual rights to everything which is placed on there. Anyone who is lucky enough to be at an event, which most people would love to be at, they can now share their experience and get rewarded for it.
It truly is a niche which can be used to transform any market. Live music events for example, can sell out in a matter of hours. For the masses of unfortunate people unable to get hold of a ticket, have the opportunity to be there in person. Individuals at the venue with a smartphone, can now stream their experience and earn revenue from thousands of people wanting to share the experience.
It can change how many industries operate in the future. We can now store specific procedure tutorials in a VR format which can be immediately accessible by a professional performing the procedure. It has real potential to revolutionise production and health care practices. Surgeons could use VR/AR to provide simulations of surgery to maintain their high levels of knowledge and expertise, throughout their career.
Cappacity are introducing their own token called the AR token (AR), which will be used as the currency throughout their ecosystem. It is the perfect arena for consumer to consumer purchases. The blockchain provides undeniable evidence as to who owns the rights to a piece of content, while also providing extremely fast payment transactions.
