OVA

Non Equity Assistance in 2020
Most of the mixed reality (XR) content that exists today has been developed by teams of highly talented and technical individuals with experience using professional 3D engine or with a background in programming. The steep learning curve and difficulty of building XR has limited the amount of available content. StellarX powered by OVA is the best sandbox available for non-programmers to develop their own XR environments, and it enables them to build through simple drag-and-drop creation. Just like Minecraft enabled 70 million people to become 3D content creators, we think that there will be hundreds of millions of computer content creators and XR makes this incredibly accessible to people. Actually, StellarX is the path to fully accessible XR content creation for enterprise. Nowadays, the trend of more accessible tools continues, as does the amount of 3D data we are collecting. StellarX is making it easier than ever to leverage these assets. At OVA we have built over the past four years a world-class sandbox that helps 3D content creator to build easily virtual worlds. Further pushing this trend is the growth of mixed reality where 3D is a necessity. As we increasingly spend time in the digital world, our digital “stuff” will rival the importance of our physical “stuff”. Amazon is the destination for physical goods, but the destination for digital goods represents a substantial opportunity. This is why we think it's crucial to democratize the 3D content creation. Creating a mixed reality environment is a creative process that includes a lot of challenging steps including defining the interaction and logic, building the world with assets and animations, adding some avatars and, finally, testing the virtual world with real users. Moreover, at OVA we believe that machine learning can be used across the entire creation process. We are building the best artificial intelligence that works together with our sandbox users. It can co-create with them in the process of building virtual worlds, help creative problem solving by suggesting ideas and can take out all the non-creative work so our users can work on what’s important.
