These advanced rendering techniques provide photorealistic 3D scene reconstruction and real-time rendering with significantly reduced computational demands, enhancing the visual fidelity and accessibility of spatial computing experiences.
Edge AI & Distributed Computing for Spatial Apps
Integrating AI processing closer to the user on devices rather than solely in the cloud, this technology reduces latency and improves privacy for real-time spatial computing applications, crucial for interactive and immersive experiences.
Impactful Policy Frameworks
Biden Administration Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence (2023)
This executive order establishes new standards for AI safety and security, protects privacy, promotes equity and civil rights, stands up for consumers, and drives innovation and competition.
It will likely increase compliance requirements for AI startups, potentially raising development costs but also fostering trust and standardization in the AI sector.
American Innovation and Choice Online Act (Proposed, ongoing)
This bipartisan antitrust legislation aims to curb the market power of dominant online platforms by preventing them from self-preferencing their own products and services.
If enacted, it could create a more level playing field for startups by reducing the monopolistic advantages of large tech companies, potentially increasing exit opportunities.
California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) of 2020 (Effective 2023)
The CPRA expands upon the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), granting consumers more control over their personal data, including the right to correct inaccurate personal information and limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information.
Startups dealing with consumer data in AI and spatial computing must implement robust data privacy and security measures, potentially increasing operational overhead but also building consumer trust.
