September 23rd-25th we will be in Bellevue, WA, to build the real-world metaverse with YOU! As you know, we launched the Lightship Visual Positioning System (VPS) in May 2022, giving developers around the world the ability to tie their AR experiences to real-world locations with centimeter-level of accuracy!
