Blockade Labs is about to release an update for Skybox AI, the first 360-degree seamless environment art creation platform. The platform now has higher quality and added functionality to create and download 8K visual content. CEO Marguerite deCourcelle stated that this update makes Skybox AI particularly suitable for generating images for Apple Vision Pro mixed reality headsets. Since its initial release, Skybox AI has undergone continuous upgrades, adding features such as mixing, sketching to Skybox, depth maps and HDRI, Skybox to 3D meshes, and new style options, significantly enhancing its practicality. Currently, Skybox AI has attracted over 1.5 million users from various industries, including more than 5,000 paying customers, such as NVIDIA, Accenture, and T-Mobile. The latest Model 3 update brings higher quality and resolution to Skybox, especially with 8K resolution, which adds 77% more pixels compared to Model 2, greatly improving image fidelity. In addition, the new "Remix Your 360" feature allows users to upload any 360-degree image and remix it using Skybox AI, further expanding the possibilities of content creation. deCourcelle also mentioned that they face a significant challenge: matching the art created in mixed reality space with the real world. To achieve this goal, they have been working closely with Apple's Vision Pro team and have achieved promising results in their demonstrations. Furthermore, she revealed that Blockade Labs was specifically introduced by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang at last year's Siggraph conference. She envisions a future where technology can automatically generate environmental images, allowing users to perform complex operations with simple commands, such as "remove all trees." Blockade Labs has raised funds from multiple companies and plans to secure further financing to support its development. The company has a full-time team, including renowned artist Random Ghost, responsible for model training. Its flagship product, Skybox AI, is an innovative text-to-360-degree 8K image generation tool that is almost independent of third-party dependencies, providing a solution for creating professional-grade high-definition 3D immersive environments. To address the challenges of fine polishing and scene transitions in computer-generated art, Blockade Labs has designed user-friendly tools such as sketching and computer vision recognition, as well as a "mixing" feature that allows users to easily control and adjust the appearance of content. Additionally, Skybox AI is interoperable and can be used with mainstream VR, gaming, and interactive development platforms and engines, offering 8K resolution and being particularly suitable for Apple Vision Pro product development. In summary, Blockade Labs, through its innovative Skybox AI platform, continues to drive the development of generative art and environmental creation, providing users with high-quality and customizable content generation solutions. The company will continue to focus on generative AI and the art field, with plans to explore more possibilities in the future.
