Aethir and MetaGravity partner to advance scalable DePIN technology, enhancing 3D internet and gaming development.
Aethir, a provider of decentralized cloud infrastructure, has formed a partnership with MetaGravity, the developers of HyperScale Engine, to expedite the development of decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN).
The partnership’s objective is to enhance the 3D internet and the gaming industry by utilizing DePIN technology to establish a scalable infrastructure that streamlines gaming development and enhances its efficiency and accessibility.
Dan Wang, the CEO and co-founder of Aethir, underscored the objective of the partnership in a written Q&A with Cointelegraph. He stated:
The partnership endeavors to surmount the historical constraints of online gaming by integrating Aethir’s Instaplay pixel streaming solution and MetaGravity’s HyperScale Engine.
“By uniting a global network of underutilized resources, we’re paving the way for a more accessible, immersive and sustainable future for gaming and the 3D internet.”
The partnership is intended to facilitate the simultaneous scaling of back-end simulation infrastruture and front-end “cross-device pixel streaming capability” for game developers.
In the Q&A, Tobin Ireland, the co-founder and chief business officer of MetaGravity, provided an explanation of causal partitioning:
“MetaGravity has created a new method of concurrency and parallelism for distributing a massive simulation across multiple servers (called Causal Partitioning), without the scale and cost limitations of the previous approaches.”
According to Ireland, MetaGravity employs mathematical formulations to precisely quantify gameplay interactions, thereby establishing infrastructure that “can deliver a 100x scale of spatial partitioning at 1/100th of the cost of compute.”
The partnership between MetaGravity and Aethir also aims to establish a longer-term research and development roadmap to expedite the adoption of DePINs for gaming.
