    Lampix is building the first blockchain based image mining network for augmented reality or any other computer vision systems, such as the Lampix device. We are creating a new blockchain that will hold {image, description} datasets of real world objects. This data is a vital prerequisite for augmented reality systems ranging from smartphones, wearable glasses, or our own Lampix device.


    Lampix Device
    Lampix is a hardware and software solution that transforms any flat surface into a smart, augmented reality surface, freeing human-computer interaction from digital screens.  With an open source API, integrating both computer vision and artificial intelligence, developers can create applications and content that can interact with real world objects, movement, and even hands.

    Lampix Use-Cases

    The restaurant use-case below is one of many possible applications for Lampix. To see more examples, visit our Youtube Page.



    Why would you want a Lampix?
    The user can be free from digital screens, and use applications that could make their life easier and more enjoyable. For instance, imagine placing a few ingredients on your kitchen table and having a list of recipes pop-up, giving you recommendations you might have not thought of, and then providing step-by-step instructions for making a selected recipe. Even if you have dirty or wet hands, you can still use Lampix, without error. The applications for the lampix are only limited by imagination and data available.  This is why we are creating the largest computer vision machine learning database for the advancement of augmented reality and artificial intelligence.


    Lampix Database
    The database is a tool every augmented and virtual reality developer can tap into for their own applications. Computer vision and machine learning are dependent on the availability of data that is curated and described. We want to meet this demand for data with the largest database composed of pictures with descriptions.





    Lampix introduces picture mining
    If you are a miner and would like to be rewarded for your contribution to a data ecosystem, then picture mining may be your next venture. With the use of a Lampix device or any other device with a camera, miners can take pictures of objects, write a description, and submit it to be verified. Once approved by multi-voter consensus, the dataset is then submitted to the database.

    The cost of electricity is minimal
    Most miners must worry about the variable cost of electricity, which is usually the biggest hurdle to obtaining an acceptable ROI. However, with picture mining, there is no proof-of-work mining needed to be done to reap rewards, instead the miner only needs to submit datasets.

    Don't have a Lampix or a device with a camera? No problem, become a voter!
    Another way to contribute to the data ecosystem is by voting on datasets. Voters can review pending datasets to make sure the description matches the picture. Once the dataset is approved by the network, voters aligned with the consensus of each dataset will be compensated.

        Database and Image Mining

        To grow a database with over one billion datasets, we determined that the most effective approach is to use PIX tokens as a form of compensation for contribution. PIX tokens will be used to pay miners and voters for their contributions.
        There are many modules used in the architecture of the Lampix device and database ecosystem. A few include the data storage database, gateway and data submission, and smart contract for voting module. A simplified version of how the modules interact within the ecosystem is displayed below.

        The Crowdsale Token, ‘PIX’, is a key component to fulfilling our vision of freeing the human-computer interaction from the digital screen and building the largest computer vision machine learning database for augmented reality and artificial intelligence.

        Pix Token Usage


        _____________________________________________________________________

        Crowdsale Token Launch

        PIX will be issued on the Ethereum blockchain and distributed via a smart contract. Participants interested in the crowdsale will have to send Ether to a specified Ethereum smart contract address, which will create PIX tokens at the current PIX/ETH exchange rate.

        Funds Allocation:

        Total: 1,100,000,000 PIX tokens will be created

        Issued: 550,000,000 PIX tokens (50%) will be issued and the coins not sold will be burned

        Company/Team: 220,000,000 PIX tokens (20%) will be allocated to the team
        The tokens set aside for the team will be released at the end of each period:
        • 25% will be available at the same time as the public, roughly 1 month after the crowdsale
        • 25% will be locked for 12 months
        • 25% will be locked for 24 months
        • 25% will be locked for 36 months
        Reserved: 330,000,000 PIX tokens (30%)

        The tokens set in reserve (20% total) will be released at the end of each period:
        • 25% will be available at the same time as the public, roughly 1 month after the crowdsale
        • 25% will be locked for 12 months
        • 25% will be locked for 24 months
        • 25% will be locked for 36 months
        At each release of tokens:
        • 30% will be used for data acquisition costs, development, marketing, and other corporate needs
        • 50% will be allocated to acquire other companies, patent and IP needs
        • 10% will be allocated to external partners if needed
        • 10% will be distributed to all PIX token holders (air drop) proportionally to their holdings at the time of the event in PIX tokens
        _____________________________________________________________________

        Crowdsale Token Launch Breakdown

        We are selling 550,000,000 PIX tokens over a 10 day period with a price of $0.12 per a PIX token during the crowdsale.
        Launch Date
        We plan to have the Crowdsale Token Launch begin on August 9, 2017 through August 18, 2017.

        More Information
        You can read more about the Lampix Crowdsale Token Launch details and financials starting on page 45 to 52 in the Whitepaper.


        Escrow?
        The distribution of tokens will be handled by a smart contract. The smart contract will be audited beforehand to make sure the distribution process is smooth.
