@bentossell The ICO is to raise funds (called 'PIX') to fund a community of image makers and voters to create the Augmented Reality data on the 'blockchain'. The plan to create one of biggest image databases in the world!
In addition, Lampix has decided to offer a database where no single company, and not Lampix neither, will control who has access to the data, and what data should go in the database.
Leveraging blockchain technology, Lampix is building a network that rewards users with Lampix tokens, called PIX, to take pictures, describe them and assemble open-source, curated image datasets. Miners can use any device that has a camera with the sufficient resolution, including the company's Lampix device, to submit datasets.
@sap323 If you give me your contact details, I will arrange for Lampix to be in touch with you including adding you to the proof of concept for Lampix.
Not only can Lampix turn any surface into a smart surface, the makers are creating in the process the world's first blockchain-based "image mining" network, with image contributors funded with cryptocurrency. How cool is that?
