June 15, 2023 – RP1 public demo showing Metaverse backend technology
RP1's first public demonstration of backend technology
RP1是一家提供元宇宙和虚拟体验的工具和开源客户端架构的供应商,本周公开展示了其后端技术的首个公开演示。该公司声称,其技术能够将10万个独特个体汇聚到一个几乎无限可扩展且持久的虚拟体验中(可扩展到数十亿个个体)。
RP1表示,这只需要几台服务器就可以完成,这些服务器可以放在一个房间里,而不是整个数据中心。如果事实如此,这将标志着元宇宙发展的重大里程碑。
Solve the problem of the number of participants limit
According to the company, existing virtual experiences can only accommodate a certain number of participants per server, ranging from 15 to 100 avatars (depending on the total CPU cores and number of CPUs per server). RP1 provides the industry's first software solution to this problem, unlocking the potential of the largest hardware and chip manufacturers.
Building new standards on top of current Internet protocols
RP1 is committed to establishing a new foundational standard based on current Internet protocols. The company says its proprietary web server architecture is 200-500 times more efficient than traditional architectures when used on a single server for persistent real-time applications, and has filed for a patent on the design and implementation of this new architecture.
Sean Mann, CEO of RP1, said: "Our fully scalable system provides creators, developers and enterprises with new and transformative technology, allowing them to unleash their imaginations and build immersive real-time 3D applications. We The limitless potential for innovation enabled by our open source approach is truly transformative. With RP1, we are revolutionizing the way we play, socialize, learn and explore in the digital world."
Key Benefits of the RP1 Metaverse Solution
Scalable:Ability to connect multiple servers together, immersing the global population in a single persistent virtual ecosystem;
On demand:Delivers on-demand content without pre-installation downloads, accessible through a web browser or native app;
Cost-effectiveness:The technology significantly lowers hardware requirements and cost barriers, making it accessible to a wide range of creators, designers and developers;
Interoperability:Consumers can move seamlessly from one experience to another without changing ecosystems;
Accessibility:RP1's ecosystem can be accessed on any device, including VR, AR, PC and mobile (Apple, Meta andMetaandHTCheadset).
Linda Ricci is a board member of the Virtual World Society and a former Meta employee. Commenting on RP1's announcement, she said: "I've been working with emerging technologies for 30 years and became interested in RP1's technology when I first heard about it 3 years ago. After the evolution since its debut, I'm convinced it provides the scalability and selectivity needed to power the metaverse at scale. That's the engine the spatial internet needs."
RP1 also mentioned in the announcement that its new developer center will be launched in the fourth quarter of this year, and the developer center will provide everyone with a comprehensive set of resources and tools for building and publishing immersive experience spatial Internet applications .
Yinch Yeap, System Architect at RP1, said: “RP1’s Developer Center will empower individuals and companies to build tools, avatars, identity systems and other components that drive innovation in the Metaverse. Cheaper, better spatial app creation provides the protocol foundation. Metaverse will be a new way for anyone to express themselves using tools as simple as TikTok and Instagram. To get more people involved, we must RP1 provides tools from fully coded to no-code tools so anyone can build for everyone. RP1 invites creators, developers, and enthusiasts to join them in their mission to shape the future of the Metaverse.”
