March 26, 2018, London: Bubbled is building a globally persistent, decentralised augmented reality (AR) cloud which facilitates a community led eco-system to experience, create and share user generated and branded AR content within a fair and open framework of governance.
The presale is due to start 2nd April 2018.
Powered by Ethereum smart contracts, BigchainDB, IPFS and traditional web technologies, the foundation of Bubbled’s decentralised AR cloud revolves around the ownership of virtual spaces tied to real world locations. Akin to website domain registration, Bubbled is building a decentralized virtual land register where participants can choose areas of the globe they wish to own, control and monetise; storing the physical land coordinates on the blockchain, as virtual namespaces for persistent virtual content from the decentralised AR cloud.
Bubbled’s AR land owners will be able to:
- insert 3D images and content
- lease out virtual land to third parties
- decide on which types of branded content is shown on their land
- set the resale price
- participate and vote on key governance and constitutional issues affecting their land blocks.
“An ethical governance of AR spaces and a robust platform serving multiple constituencies is at the heart of our work at Bubbled” said Andre Voisin, CEO. “We envision a world interconnected and seamlessly interwoven with decentralised technologies that democratise control and allow communities to create new and exciting markets. However, we believe that there should be a governance for virtual spaces so there is an accountability for bad actors and route to legal recourse.The same way there are watchdogs like the Advertising Standards Authority setting a code of conduct for outdoor advertising. Ownership means accountability. We have initiated the conversation around ethics, AR and blockchain through the creation of the Bubbled Framework for Augmented Reality Content (BFAR) a code we encourage all involved in immersive AR content space to adapt and contribute to for self governance.”
