Don't forget that you can come hang out in our Discord.

Tonight at 9 PM HKT @Auki will do a livestream here on X where we address people's questions about privacy, our technology, and the role of spatial computing in retail.

Getting @bracketbot pilot ready: Cactus sends a job to inspect a section of some shelf and it navigates there autonomously to scan it.

It's not like we've been championing privacy in spatial computing for as long as we've existed as a company or anything. medium.com/posemesh/the-meta…
Receiving an interesting ratio of death threats and VC outreach over this now, so should probably clarify:
We at @Auki do not actually track any person. In this visualization we show how manage to derive the data we actually track: what part of the shelf receives attention.
It's like tracking how many cars cross a bridge without tracking which car it was or who was driving.
The reason we do this is to allow the stores to better optimize their shelf space. Space is first or second biggest cost for every retailer, so optimizing the use of space is what allows them to reduce prices for the consumer - something they're all under intense pressure to do.
We do not store any data at all about the shopper, and have no plans to.
Auki's tech will not be used to profile you, but it will make your groceries cheaper and your store visits faster.
We have always been champions of privacy, and that's not going to change.
Peace.

We can measure what part of the shelf gets customer attention without any additional hardware. Just your normal CCTV cameras and a digital twin made with the phone in your pocket.
@CactusXR will absolutely revolutionize how well stores can do their merchandising.

Have we mentioned lately our hacker house full of robots and other hardware is open to builders? Come to HK.
Some cool wip at @Auki's lab in HK: Combining Han Ruihua (@HKUniversity)'s IR-SIM with @Meta's Habitat, allowing a simulated robot to navigate an environment previously reconstructed from video from another device.

What if you could build a tool that lets retailers see what products shoppers spend the most time looking at, and then correlate that to sales data?
Wouldn't it revolutionize how they optimize their stores?
Billion dollar apps are waiting for you to build them. 👇
Here’s a detailed thread about how we built this, the tools that were used, and how we tried to keep user and business data privacy at the core of the system 🧵

Giving AI eyes in the physical world.
$AUKI is building the missing piece for robots in real shops.
AI is genius on a screen, but drop it into an actual shop or warehouse and it’s clueless. It doesn’t know where anything is, or what’s moved since yesterday.
Auki’s building the fix. They call it a harness for physical AI. In plain terms, it lets AI agents and robots go and gather the information they need to understand a real business, and keep it updated by themselves.
Think of a shop. $AUKI’s tech keeps a live digital twin, basically a constantly-updated map of the whole place. So an AI copilot just knows the layout and can actually help run it. Nobody has to manually tell it “we moved the cereal to aisle four.” It already knows.
This is a missing piece for the whole robot economy. Machines can’t be useful in real businesses until they understand the space they’re in. Auki’s building that understanding

- @BracketBot arrives to a new space and navigates a map built by phones
- Onboarding only a matter of showing it a QR code
- Early demo of pose and gaze detection with the Auki SDK
- We'll build heat maps of what people look at
- Supporting hackathon in LA during a16z Tech Week

Can you deploy a robot in just minutes? Here it navigates a map that was previously created by a phone.
The small, sparse points is the phone map, and the thicc creamy points are from the robots own perception.
This is the power of @Auki's collaborative perception and mapping.

Manipulation is a bit down the line for us, but still wanted to put our new @BracketBot through its paces.

We're building a harness for physical AI, letting your agents autonomously gather and manage the context they need to understand your business.
Piloting in Q1 with support from @bracketbot, @GalbotRobotics and @RealmanRobotics.
In retail, knowing is half the battle.
Imagine a digital twin of your business keeps itself up to date, and an AI copilot that helps you make the right decisions for your unique environment and business.
Piloting in Q1 with several robotics platforms.

Morning: new @bracketbot unboxing
Afternoon: robotics panel and recruiting at HKU
Evening: 🤖 & 🍻 feat. @Sextus_Sensus, a stealth robotics startup at our lab, and more
This was last Friday, but every day is robotics day at Auki.
