Arcona

The project aims to lower the threshold for entering the AR space and provides an affordable, efficient and easy way to place 3D multimedia content onto physical locations. Arcona frequently works with companies engaged in gaming, historical reconstructions, education and tourism.

The platform’s naitive utility token ARCONA serves to maintain the economy inside of the ecosystem and can be used to purchase Digital Land plots, software development services, advertising and creative 3D content on Arcona's marketplace.

The first ARCONA token sale was held in August 2020. According to the project’s official whitepaper, the company was founded in 2018 in Saint-Petersburg, Russia.

Ilya Korguzalov is the project leader and co-founder of Arcona (ARCONA). An experienced entrepreneur with extensive background in AR, he previously co-founded Piligrim XXI — the first ever Russian IT company to enter the international AR market for the travel industry.

Diana Sorina is a co-founder of Arcona and Piligrim XXI. Holding a degree in economics, she possesses more than a decade of experience in marketing, sales and PR.

Aleksandr Emilianov is the third co-founder, as well as the research and development lead of Arcona. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from University of West Bohemia, Plzen, Czech Republic and has a background in software development and computer vision technology.

Arcona (ARCONA) creates a global augmented reality layer that unites the real and virtual world into a single information space. Digital Land plots are represented on the platform as ERC-721 non-fungible tokens (NFTs) with their smart contract containing information regarding current and previous owners, geographic coordinates and identification number.

As a global information layer and a complex technology solution built with artificial intelligence, neural networks and geographic information system (GIS), Arcona claims to be able to provide developers with an opportunity to launch location-based AR projects remotely, without the need to scan the chosen environment on-site.

The platform has developed an original AR library called Arcona Core that supports both indoor and outdoor usage scenarios, even in low-light conditions. Moreover, Arcona Core boasts a multi-user AR experience. As a cross-platform solution, Arcona Core is compatible with both Android and IOS devices.

As stated on the official website, Arcona is able to provide highly accurate distance measurements and object placement through use of SLAM (Simultaneous localization and mapping) technology combined with fast and robust line detection. SLAM is an autonomous navigation algorithm used for mapping the physical area while simultaneously keeping track of the device’s location.

Arcona ecosystem aims to simplify the process of AR content creation and features a technology solution that does not require software development skills to design and launch an AR experience.

The maximum supply of ARCONA (Arcona) is 15 million tokens. According to the official whitepaper, the allocation of ARCONA is as follows:

20% is held by the team

7% is given to advisors

2% is allocated for bounty

11% is in the reserve fund

60% of the token supply is for sale

The current CoinMarketCap ranking is #1197, with a live market cap of $4 592 462 USD. It has a circulating supply of 15 335 470 ARCONA coins and a max. supply of 16 699 878 ARCONA coins.

Arcona XR Metaverse merged the real and virtual worlds to create Digital Land. It is a single layer of augmented reality that has covered our planet. In this cyberspace, any person or company can remotely launch their own AR projects anywhere in the world. These are games, tourist attractions, online stores, advertising shows, exhibition spaces... Arcona makes AR a truly mass and publicly available technology.

Imagine the world where the plot “Ready Player One” and some of the “Black Mirror’s” ideas are not just science fiction, but the common reality. All the biggest brands have already entered the game: Google, Facebook, Amazon, Instagram, together with Apple, Samsung, Huawei with their AR cell phone features - you name it, as the list goes on and on. Clearly virtual and augmented reality technologies are ready to become a part of our lives, so the united Digital World is just around the corner. We’ve decided to make this bold step into the future and present you a brand new AR Ecosystem - ARCONA.

The Arcona ecosystem creates a Digital Land - a layer of augmented reality generated across the surface of the planet, combining the physical and virtual worlds into a single information environment, perfectly connected to the real world. It is designed for daily interactive user interaction with augmented, virtual and mixed reality multimedia content in the real world. You can change the real world environment on the fly with your smartphone, tablet or HoloLens headset or similar devices.

In this digital land, anyone will be able to buy a piece of land and start a business on an AR platform. Everything will be controlled remotely, and the business can be managed around the world without leaving the office. Land can be bought and sold, rented out and donated, used to develop new business projects or implement creative ideas. In a word, use it like a real piece of land, with only one difference - it will be in a global layer of augmented reality. It is completely ready to host any interactive content. It can be quests and reconstructions for tourists, art installations and educational programs, advertising and marketing stories. It can be almost any experiment with AR (National Geographic Partners With Aryzon To Create Open-Air AR Planetarium).

Each digital terrain site has already identified and processed all the necessary natural markers. The platform conducts regular monitoring of the digitized areas. The surrounding world is constantly changing: lighting, seasons, buildings can be rebuilt, new objects appear. To maintain the quality characteristics of an AR project built on nature markers, it is necessary to track all these changes over time and make adjustments to the visual map of the area. Arcona does it automatically, the user gets a site in a real city, fully prepared for placing and managing 3D content. That is, being in New York, you can easily get a plot of land in the central square of Mexico City and run an interactive show there, literally from the comfort of your home.

Arcona was designed to incorporate AR into all areas of real-world business. The ecosystem can be applied and have a big impact on real estate, tourism, gaming, media, advertising, education, art industry, etc. The possibilities are endless!

Arcona is the first global AR ecosystem built on blockchain technology that quickly connects large numbers of people from around the world and allows them to create tons of incredible content. Transparent blockchain technology and smart contracts guarantee the rights of owners of digital land and protect the copyrights of developers and artists. The platform combines distributed geographic information system (GIS) functionality, computer vision, 3D modeling and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies.

The project is a composite of the usual augmented reality system, built on the Unity engine, and the system of automatic remote marker generation. From a programmatic point of view, this system sets Arcona apart from other AR projects.

The marker generation system, does not use any existing augmented reality engine or programming environment, as it functionally belongs to the areas of surface reconstruction, prototyping, point cloud generation, point cloud processing, polygonal mesh reconstruction, and surface feature extraction.

During the development of the global AR platform, the Arcona team has developed several original tools:

DK Arcona CV Core - it is unique tool kit for the developers creating multiuser AR applications in the conditions of the urban environment. SDK provides broad functionality of markerless localization, allows to digitize automatically the Earth’s surface for placement of 3D content and gives the chance of flexible customization. Key advantages of Arcona CV Core became sure work as inside, and outdoor, including under various weather conditions, insufficient lighting, overlappings of the camera, fast movements of the user and other difficult situations typical for application in the urban environment.

Automated generator of virtual lands - it is a universal algorithm which allows “to duplicate” the land surface, having distributed on it continuous network of the geoattached hexagons or triangles of any area. When forming sites features of a real relief and urban development are automatically considered. The analysis passes on the basis of open data from different cartographic sources. It allows to reject initially all territories which are not answering to the set parameters. Characteristics of sites are fixed in specially created system of storage and accounting of data. Capacity of the generator reaches 2000 sites a second or 200 square kilometers per hour.

Algorithm of assessment of land assets - it is the automated expert system which allows to count and compare valuable characteristics of various sites of territories including digital. In the analysis the algorithm relies on enormous volumes of data among which there are geographical features, places of an attraction of users, data both pedestrian and a car traffic, and even about an economic and social status of the population of the concrete territory. The horizon of the analysis can include with ease any criteria necessary for assessment of a concrete asset.

SLAM - computer vision system that allows you to correctly position objects in a dynamic, changing environment

Key components of Arcona:

- VIO/SLAM, based on fusion of image data with IMU and GPS - performs accurate positioning and distance measurement using data from smartphone sensors and other equipment;

- a cloud-based geographic information system with fast algorithms for creating digital plots anywhere in the world and assigning virtual content to them;

- a cloud-based feature-map/relocalization system that uses sensor data collected during user sessions or taken from publicly available datasets. This eliminates GPS inaccuracy and enables a collaborative AR experience through visual recognition and geometry alignment.

PROJECT TEAM

In 2018, the project team created 8 AR parks in 6 countries (France, Italy, Russia, Latvia, Estonia and Bulgaria) and developed unique remote positioning algorithms, which were provided to all Arcona users. In Paris, Piligrim XXI team reconstructed the ruined Bastille prison, and in Italy Russian developers recreated Pompeii.

DIGITAL ASSETS

To deploy a full-fledged AR attraction in the center of Tokyo, an advertising campaign in New York or an Internet boutique in Paris, you don't need to master the most complex technologies, travel to the other end of the world or hire a team of expensive programmers. All you have to do is find the right area of the Digital Territories and remotely place the desired content on it - literally on the fly, from the comfort of your couch.

1. Arcona Digital Land - OpenSea marketplace. The entire global Digital Land layer is divided into separate sections – hexagonal plots of 100 square meters. The coordinates of each plot are designated and set in a decentralized database of the Arcona and listed in the smart contract as nonfungible token Arcona Digital Land ( ARDL) by ETH 721 standart.
2. Lands - ARCONA marketplace.
3. Castels - Full-size 3D models of Castles, forts, towers and fortresses. Arcona castles is your constant income source in the augmented reality world.

4. Domains - NFT domains unite a group of Digital Lands with a common border anywhere in the world. The number of lands united determines the rank and rarity of the Domain token. The domain is needed in order to be able to create your own large-scale projects in the world of augmented reality, to post content on vast territories. Each NFT domain has a 3D model that you can deploy on Digital Land as your first augmented reality project.
5. Nobility Titles - Arсona is the only metaverse where you can become a nobleman by adding an aristocratic title to your name, To the rank of aristocrat, you also receive a 3D coat of arms in the form of a rare NTF. This is an award for participation in the creation of the Augmented Reality World, in the development of the economy and the discovery of new lands in the AR world. You will be able to link this award and title to your online account, place a 3D model in your castle in the AR domain to show your status to people in the real world.
