Building the Infrastructure
for the Next Generation of the Internet
A persistent, shared, planet-scale Augmented Reality layer, built by the community.
Proprietary Technology: Visual Positioning System (VPS)
Centimeter-level precision to anchor the digital world to ours.
Alter Geo's core technology is a proprietary Visual Positioning System (VPS), developed entirely in-house. Our VPS determines a device's position and orientation with centimeter-level accuracy using only its camera. This allows us to anchor Augmented Reality (AR) content to specific physical locations persistently and shared across multiple users.
This capability overcomes the limitations of conventional AR, which does not allow for synchronized multi-user experiences or precise interactions with the environment, opening a new paradigm for tourism, culture, and beyond.
A Symbiotic Business Model
Mescape (B2C): The Game that Builds the World
Our B2C product is Mescape, the first geospatial MMORPG in a persistent, shared AR world. The game mechanics incentivize players to scan and map their real environment.
Every space scanned by a player organically expands our main data asset: a global 3D map. This way, we turn the game into the data acquisition engine.
Alter Geo Platform (B2B): The Monetizable Infrastructure
The global 3D map, built by the Mescape community, is the asset that powers our B2B platform. We license this infrastructure to companies and developers via an API.
This allows third parties to create large-scale AR applications (advertising, tourism, logistics) without the multi-million dollar investment of building their own mapping infrastructure.
