Auki community update recap: May 17, 2025

Strategic Partnerships, Retail Insights, and Network Enhancements

This week's update brings news about significant partnerships, valuable insights from retail implementations, and ongoing improvements in our decentralized network.

Strategic partnerships

We announced two important partnerships:

  • Toyota Material Handling: Otherwise known as Toyota Forklifts, Toyota Material Handling has 25% of the global forklift market. We're collaborating with themto enhance smart warehouse solutions. Toyota can now recommend our technology to their customers, vastly expanding our sales channels. We showcased our technology alongside Toyota at their recent international event in Marseille, France.
  • Mars Inc: A new partnership with Mars centers around the "store of the future." While specifics are under NDA, this collaboration positions us to potentially expand into thousands of new locations through Mars' network, significantly increasing our reach.

Retail implementation and insights

Our retail analytics technology continues to provide practical insights for clients. A major retailer discovered through our spatial analytics that only two out of eight electric toothbrushes on their shelves were generating significant sales—a detail previously missed by their conventional analytics. This example highlights how spatial analytics offers clear and actionable retail insights quickly.

Additionally, Tracy and the team have begun a new paid pilot rollout in Denmark. Initially covering three stores, this implementation has the potential to scale to all 1,900 locations, significantly broadening our deployments.

Advancing robotics and AI

We held discussions with two innovative companies specializing in robot training data, exploring necessary advancements to bring consumer-ready humanoid robots closer to reality. The outlined essentials include:

  • Locomotion models
  • Manipulation models
  • Mapping capabilities
  • Positioning accuracy
  • Perception abilities
  • Application layers

The Auki Network specifically targets the mapping, positioning, and perception layers, vital yet underrepresented areas crucial for interoperability in robotics.

GitHub and network improvements

Ongoing improvements are happening on our GitHub repository, notably regarding the launch of reconstruction nodes. This advancement will allow community members to run nodes that process spatial reconstructions, offering new earning opportunities and practical utilities. The upcoming update aims to leverage consumer-grade GPUs for short, practical workloads, making decentralized compute more accessible and efficient.

Tokenomics considerations

Due to changes in use case priorities since our original tokenomics design, we're considering a significant burn of tokens currently held by the foundation, potentially reducing the total supply. This would enhance the network's sustainability and align better with current use cases. Community feedback on this topic is welcome and valuable.

Robotics partnerships and deployments

Our robotics initiatives continue advancing, particularly with Padbot, a prominent robot manufacturer in China. Integration with the highly anticipated EngineAI humanoid robot is also expected soon.

アウキ・ラボについて

Aukiはポーズメッシュという地球上、そしてその先の1000億の人々、デバイス、AIのための分散型機械認識ネットワークを構築しています。ポーズメッシュは、機械やAIが物理的世界を理解するために使用可能な、外部的かつ協調的な空間感覚です。

私たちの使命は、人々の相互認知能力、つまり私たちが互いに、そしてAIとともに考え、経験し、問題を解決する能力を向上させることです。人間の能力を拡大させる最も良い方法は、他者と協力することです。私たちは、意識を拡張するテクノロジーを構築し、コミュニケーションの摩擦を減らし、心の橋渡しをします。

ポーズメッシュについて

ポーズメッシュは、分散型で、ブロックチェーンベースの空間コンピューティングネットワークを動かすオープンソースのプロトコルです。

ポーズメッシュは、空間コンピューティングが協調的でプライバシーを保護する未来をもたらすよう設計されています。いかなる組織の監視能力も制限し、空間のプライベートな地図の自己所有権を奨励します。

分散化はまた、特に低レイテンシが重要な共同ARセッションにおいて、競争優位性を有します。ポスメッシュは分散化運動の次のステップであり、成長するテック大手のパワーに対抗するものです。

アウキ・ラボはポスメッシュにより、ポーズメッシュのソフトウェア・インフラの開発を託されました。
