Sensorium is officially joining the Blockchain Game Alliance, one of the world's largest associations committed to promoting blockchain and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) within the gaming industry. With this, Sensorium will be able to engage with BGA's vast network of members and take part in the alliance's numerous initiatives aimed at spreading awareness about blockchain technologies and encouraging widespread adoption. "It's exciting to be a part of the BGA and join forces with this community to advance blockchain-based projects and highlight the potential brought on by the technology. As Sensorium also continues exploring not only blockchain but the vast opportunities of NFTs, including upgradable options, becoming a part of this alliance is the right step forward for us and we hope to bring a great contribution to it, too", said Alex Blagirev, Deputy CEO of Sensorium. The membership comes on the back of the recent launch of Wakatta, an NFT-focused blockchain developed by Sensorium DLT. Wakatta has become one of the first platforms to offer a new range of innovative NFTs that are upgradable, time-limited, and non-hashed. Each of these token classes was designed to drive digital impact across both digital and real-life environments, in particular in the entertainment industry. "Looking at just how diverse and inclusive BGA's membership is, it's clear that we can benefit greatly from sharing knowledge, collaborating and developing new models for NFTs in particular. This is the type of open forum that will shape the next generation of blockchain", added Blagirev. BGA membership has more than doubled this year alone, and members include developers, NFT marketplaces, gaming partners, including leading blockchain experts currently on the alliance's board like BITKRAFT's Piers Kicks, The Sandbox co-founder Sebastien Borget and Ubisoft's Nicolas Pouard.

Hi everyone! We wanted to bring you up to speed on a major update. Today, we're excited to confirm that Sensorium Galaxy will be migrating to the Wakatta blockchain. This is a move that we've been planning for some time, but it’s now becoming a reality with the recent launch of Wakatta, an NFT and entertainment-focused blockchain. At the moment, the Sensorium Galaxy metaverse relies on Ethereum to power its in-platform currency, SENSO. This token will be at the center of the metaverse's virtual economy once it is launched in the coming months, and will be used to mint NFTs, support transactions and exchanges, unlock experiences, tickets and events, among other functionalities. We developed SENSO to ensure that Sensorium Galaxy has a thriving and fair economy, where users can expect transparency and reliability at all times. But looking at how the crypto market has evolved this past year, it became clear that the rapid increase in ETH prices (and other problems associated with Ethereum like congestion), would affect our mission of building a welcoming metaverse. That is why we focused on building a solution that would better fit the needs of an entertainment-based platform like Sensorium Galaxy.

The wait was long, but it’s finally here. Today, we’re excited to introduce the beta version of the Sensorium App — a mobile application that empowers you with advanced AI and AR tools to create intelligent virtual beings capable of elevating your social life. Since its inception, Sensorium Galaxy has been focused on developing an inclusive metaverse that leaves no one behind when it comes to platform accessibility. The Sensorium App is a first step in building a cross-platform, highly immersive, entertainment-filled alternate universe. Following our beta test stage, we will be adding new features to the Sensorium App, turning it into a true mobile gateway to our soon-to-come metaverse. “We think of the Sensorium App as a toolkit that will enhance the digital experiences of Sensorium Galaxy participants and give everyone an opportunity to get creative with artificial intelligence in a super intuitive and very amusing way. With a single app, anyone can start building autonomous virtual beings with whom it’s possible to chat on literally any topic and hang out anytime. Sensorium App opens a new chapter in our social lives,” explains Daniil Solopov, Sensorium Mobile Product Director. From a technological standpoint, Sensorium’s Chief Technology Officer Sergey Drozdkov highlights the synergy achieved by combining Google’s UI toolkit Flutter with Unity’s endless creative possibilities. “Our application leverages bleeding-edge technologies to unleash the metaverse experience of Sensorium Galaxy on your phone. This is achieved through two key technological assets - artificial intelligence and augmented reality. AI enables smart, immersive, and human-like exchanges, while AR brings together the best out of the real world and the immense opportunities of virtual settings. By combining both, we got the Sensorium App. Our application was developed on top of leading cross-platform frameworks, which translates into a seamless experience on both Android and iOS.”

Sensorium DLT, a division of the technology company behind the Sensorium Galaxy metaverse, announced the development of Wakatta — a new blockchain that will serve the needs of the broad entertainment industry through innovative NFT types and a set of growth-oriented business solutions. "As pioneers in bridging real-world, high-quality entertainment with the broad opportunities of extended reality, we clearly understand the importance of enhancing virtual and creator economies to create more lively and fair digital experiences for everyone. Wakatta is our contribution to the ever-evolving entertainment industry. We want to help businesses and artists realize their full potential and meet their growth goals faster. And to make it possible, we are providing them with powerful, brand new NFT types on top of a first-class network", says Alex Blagirev, Sensorium Deputy CEO and Wakatta's Project Lead. Wakatta brings to market novel NFT types — upgradable, time-limited, and non-hashed. Each of these token classes has been carefully engineered to unleash exciting applications in both digital and real-life environments. As its name suggests, upgradable NFTs are capable of mutating over time. Visual artists can make use of these tokens to legitimately use other artists' artworks as the basis for their own, while original producers retain control over spin-off creations. Musicians can also simplify the process of co-creating tracks with others, giving total or partial access to their NFT-protected content to be overwritten or utilized on other compositions. In a similar manner, fashion houses could use upgradable NFTs for collabs when it comes to digital collections, now trending in the metaverse space.

Today is a great day for Sensorium enthusiasts. We’re releasing our long-awaited SENSO Whitepaper 2.0 — a document that unveils for the first time important details about Sensorium Galaxy's metaverse and its blockchain-based currency - SENSO. Don’t have time for a long read? Here's a quick preview:
## USE CASES
### IN-PLATFORM CURRENCY The primary function of SENSO is acting as a payment method within the Sensorium Galaxy. But there’s more to it than just paying for things, especially because of the wide opportunities it represents for users. As most of you know, SENSO can be purchased from major digital asset exchanges or straight from Sensorium Galaxy's platform. However, getting SENSO in the open market can provide a dynamic discount for users. Inside the metaverse, one SENSO is worth ~$10 per unit. That rate is applied to those buying SENSO through traditional fiat payments. This mechanism incentivizes the use of the token against fiat purchases, which positively affects the burning rate.

Sensorium is officially joining the Alliance of Blockchain Industry, Z-park (ABI), one of the largest and most influential non-profit blockchain communities in China. Currently, the Alliance has over 220 members, including key Chinese industrial partners, research organisations and technology groups, with the aim of boosting cooperation, development and adoption of blockchain-based infrastructures across China. This membership presents a unique opportunity for Sensorium to engage with regional partners in strategic technological initiatives, as the company continues bolstering its reach in China and the wider Asia-Pacific region. "Being a part of ABI means having a gateway to a vast community of established blockchain experts and researchers, opening up limitless opportunities for cooperation. China is undoubtedly one of the world's most significant centers for blockchain technology and we couldn't pass up the chance of joining this alliance to help bring more evolution and innovation to Sensorium Galaxy", said Alex Blagirev, Deputy CEO of Sensorium. As one of the earliest blockchain alliances in Asia, ABI has led numerous initiatives in the fields of blockchain education and development, leveraging the contribution of notable partners such as Huawei, Tencent, Baidu and China Mobile to help improve growth efforts. Given its extensive presence in the region, ABI is also recognised as a trusted source in industry news and development trends. “More than ever, we're dedicated to taking our virtual reality content and entertainment possibilities to new frontiers. As such, we're thrilled to be a part of a respected community of like-minded partners and we look forward to working together in achieving breakthroughs“, added Blagilev.

The 'Year of VR' has been ushered in at least once every year for the last decade. But as much hype as the technology has generated in the past, it has largely fallen flat. At least so far. From cartoonish graphics to clunky gear, the complaints over the rollout of virtual reality have been many. And that's made it incredibly difficult for people to consider embracing it. But one thing is for sure, the virtual world is here to stay. 2021 has proven that there's plenty of success to be found in building virtual worlds where users can purchase plots of land, snap up ultra stylish houses, buy Louis Vuitton virtual garments or attend Ariana Grande concerts. This has renewed interest in the metaverse - loosely described as a shared and persistent virtual environment that combines real-life and digital experiences into one space, powered by virtual reality. This is where purchasing a VR headset becomes an important decision if you're looking to get the best out of your experience. So, here are five things to consider and know before pulling out the wallet to make an investment in a VR gadget.

VR is not just about gaming anymore. It's entering other facets of day to day life at a breakneck speed. From planning your next trip to purchasing your first house, immersive technology can lend a helping hand in optimizing experiences. And as the world is finally getting real about virtual reality, it's perhaps a good idea to get up to speed with what's going on in the world of immersive technologies and what exactly are they being used for.

Virtual reality has, for the most part, been associated with gaming and education. However, digital technologies, such as VR, are experiencing transformative uses in art and design. VR devices are fast becoming a creativity tool that we can use to create 3D art, from sculpting to painting and animation. Imagine having an idea, picking up your virtual sketchbook and seeing your thoughts come to life, straight from your mind into a 3D canvas. Not only that, but VR technology allows you to think big, we mean really BIG. You can create at whatever scale you want and navigate your virtual environment however you want, like walking around or through your designs. Whether what you're looking for is painting, modeling, sculpting or animating, there's plenty of software for creating art in VR, which makes knowing where to get started quite the challenge. That's why we put this list together. Without further delay, and in no particular order, here are the best VR art-making applications you might consider downloading.

The gaming industry has come a long way. From clunky consoles, quirky cartridges and simplistic games (Super Mario Bros, anyone?) to an entertainment outlet worth over $170 billion, powered by more than 2.7 billion players worldwide. Nowadays, gaming is an all-consuming experience, built on top of ultra-realistic animations, full of twists and turns throughout what seems like an endless stream of entertainment content. There's seemingly nothing out of bounds when it comes to the possibilities of gaming. From personalizing avatars to customizing environments, purchasing tools and setting up tournaments, gamers are showered with all kinds of options to enhance the time spent in virtual worlds. But we've gone beyond the choosing of color palettes and skins; user preferences are changing the foundations of gaming. Instead of the linear experiences of the past, gaming is increasingly an open-ended experience. This is evident by the success of sandbox titles like Minecraft, drawing in players with infinite playable loops that can take shape in the form of challenges and competitions, for example. The more players engage, the greater their status in the community and bigger the incentive to engage with other users. And how to better enhance this experience than by letting players create and exchange (or even sell) their own content. All of this opens the doors to a gaming experience without limits. Take Roblox or Fortnite, two games also seeing a meteoric rise on the back of user-generated content (UGC). However, the majority of gaming experiences remain trapped in traditional, centralized models. This means that developers and gaming companies hold the most power within the ecosystem. Even when users come up with their original content, its value is entirely tied to the gaming dynamics set by developers. That's because games are provided to users on a licensing basis, meaning that they’re free to play and be enjoyed, but in the end users don’t own any in-platform assets. Think of it like renting a house but not being the owner; gamers are simply renting games. Players can be subjected to unexpected or arbitrary decisions that limit their possibilities, from the worth of their creations to the number of units that can be sold or exchanged in a marketplace. Ultimately, centralized gaming models don't favor players - and certainly fail to reward the most loyal ones, despite them spending more time online.
