“This GSMA Foundry project demonstrates the role operators can play in the decentralised delivery of Web3 services to mobile devices and wearables. This is critical for delivering high quality 3D content on a sustainable basis”
“KDDI is pleased to continue our ongoing partnership with Mawari and provide our Edge Computing and 5G network resources for the Mawari Network Testnet”, says Katsuhiro Kozuki, Head of XR Development Department at KDDI Corporation. “Our pioneering work together with Mawari over the past years to deploy consumer-grade XR experiences now continues at a new, more advanced level to create new life experiences in the Beyond 5G and 6G era.”
This GSMA Foundry Project will showcase the world’s first Web3, decentralized XR content delivery platform that scales real-time 3D rendering and streaming to XR wearable devices via 5G.
“This GSMA Foundry project demonstrates the role operators can play in the decentralised delivery of Web3 services to mobile devices and wearables. This is critical for delivering high quality 3D content on a sustainable basis,” says Alex Sinclair, Chief Technology Officer at GSMA. “The project will also explore the benefits brought by the GSMA Open Gateway API for Quality on Demand and how it exposes operator network capabilities to deliver great experiences to users.”
Over the past 6 years Mawari has developed proven and widely demonstrated cutting-edge, proprietary technologies including patent-pending Split Rendering frameworks and 3D streaming CODECs of the Mawari Engine which will power the Mawari Network Testnet.
“The trillion-dollar opportunity represented by XR will not be realized until consumer-grade content can be efficiently streamed simultaneously to large numbers of XR wearable devices. Similarly, without the killer use-case, mainstream adoption cannot happen. The Mawari Network opens the doors for creative developers to push creativity to the limit.” says Founder and CEO Luis Oscar Ramirez Solorzano.
