# Lensirtual

*/Startups/Lensirtual*

## Startup Overview

A spatial computing engine transcodes and streams high-fidelity 3D mesh data directly to remote clients. It processes massive, complex environments and delivers them as lightweight, real-time spatial streams to edge devices, bypassing the need for heavy local GPU hardware.

Developers and enterprise teams building spatial applications face persistent bandwidth and hardware bottlenecks. Pushing massive digital twins or detailed virtual environments to standard headsets and mobile edge devices typically requires aggressive asset downscaling or expensive local processing hardware. This architecture removes the local rendering constraint, enabling teams to deploy uncompromised, full-resolution spatial data over standard network connections.

While alternatives like Unity Cloud, NVIDIA Omniverse, and custom in-house rendering pipelines lock teams into specific ecosystems or demand high-bandwidth environments, this system remains entirely engine-agnostic. It is explicitly optimized for low-bandwidth edge deployment, replacing fragile, heavily tethered infrastructure with a universal delivery mechanism that maintains high frame rates and visual fidelity regardless of the source engine or the client network constraints.

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Targeting 60fps streaming for 10M+ polygon meshes over standard cellular networks.
- Aiming to eliminate manual Level-of-Detail (LOD) authoring workflows for technical artists.
- Designed to reduce remote client compute overhead by streaming only frustum-visible geometry.
**Tiers**:
- Name: Developer Meter · Price: ~$0.05–$0.12 per GB streamed · Inclusions: Up to 500 concurrent edge clients, standard engine-agnostic hooks (designed to connect with Unity/Unreal), and automatic base-level mesh decimation.
- Name: Production Bandwidth · Price: ~$0.02–$0.08 per GB streamed + ~$500/mo platform fee · Inclusions: Unlimited concurrent clients, frustum-culled selective streaming, custom mesh compression tuning, and priority edge-node routing.
- Name: Enterprise Pipeline · Price: ~$30k–$75k/yr platform fee · Inclusions: Self-hosted or VPC-deployed transcoding pipeline, fixed-rate bandwidth configurations, and integration engineering support for proprietary rendering systems.
**Guarantee**: If the transcoded mesh fails to maintain a continuous 30fps update rate on standard 4G connections (5 Mbps or higher), we refund the transcoding and egress costs for the degraded sessions.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Our assets are already optimized in-engine; why add a transcoding layer? — Lensirtual sits outside the engine and handles network fluctuations dynamically, so you don't have to author and bake LODs for every possible edge device.
- Transcoding high-fidelity spatial files on the fly will introduce latency. — The pipeline prioritizes geometry based on the remote camera's frustum, streaming only the visible mesh data to prevent upfront scene-loading bottlenecks.
- We cannot stream proprietary CAD models through a third-party cloud. — The Enterprise tier is designed for deployment strictly within your own VPC, ensuring all original mesh data remains behind your firewall.

## Startup Proof Points

_Illustrative — target and order-of-magnitude estimate figures, not an achieved track record (this Thing is concept-stage)._

**Pilot Goals**:
- A 30-day proof-of-concept deploying the frustum-culled streaming pipeline on a single 50M polygon architectural model, aiming to prove sub-200ms interaction latency over standard LTE connections.
- A 60-day Enterprise VPC integration pilot, connecting Lensirtual to a proprietary internal rendering engine to validate secure, behind-the-firewall mesh decimation and fixed-rate bandwidth routing.
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 10M+ polygon meshes streaming continuously at 60fps over 5Mbps 4G connections
- Aim: 100% elimination of manual Level-of-Detail (LOD) authoring hours per hero asset
- Target: 80% reduction in initial scene-load times via frustum-culled geometry prioritization
- Aim: 60% decrease in edge device compute overhead during heavy spatial rendering sessions
**Target Case Studies**:
- Industrial Digital Twin Provider: Enterprise Head of Spatial Computing transitioning from manual LOD authoring of factory models to on-the-fly frustum-culled streaming, enabling field workers to view full-fidelity twins on 4G tablets.
- Mid-market Retail Tech Lead: Moving from pre-baked low-poly web assets to streaming 1M+ polygon CAD-derived meshes dynamically to consumer browsers without increasing initial page load times.
- Multiplayer VR Studio: Technical Art Director offloading dynamic mesh scaling to the cloud, allowing technical artists to skip manual LOD generation pipelines entirely and focus on hero asset creation.
**Testimonial Targets**:

**Success**: Your high-fidelity scenes load instantly on remote devices, maintaining 60fps regardless of original polygon counts or local GPU constraints.
**One Liner**: Every deployment, technical artists struggle with manual LOD baking. Lensirtual streams engine-agnostic spatial meshes so dense assets run on low-bandwidth edge devices.
**Positioning**:
- **So That**: stream high-fidelity geometry to low-bandwidth edge devices instantly
- **Unlike**: manual Unity LOD authoring
- **For Whom**: lead technical artists
- **Category**: Spatial Mesh Streaming Pipeline
