NuNet Appliance simplifies decentralized machine perception by supporting Auki nodes

In the near future where billions of robots, physical AI, smart glasses, drones, autonomous vehicles, and most other computers in the world are spatial computers, they'll need to be able to perceive and understand the physical world. And for that, they'll need infrastructure everywhere in the world

At Auki, we're building the decentralized machine perception network that will become the nervous system for AI and other spatial computers. While we already have hundreds of infrastructure providers all over the world, the setup process contains too much friction for scaling up to ubiquity.

That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that Auki Network is the first project to be featured on the NuNet Appliance—a pioneering solution designed to lower the barriers to entry for decentralized compute participation.

Scaling the future of the Auki Network with NuNet

Simplifying the onboarding process for node operators is a big priority for us at Auki. Currently, setting up a relay or domain node requires a publicly accessible static IP address along with knowledge of port management, Docker commands, DNS configuration, and more.

This is where NuNet comes in. Last August, we announced our partnership with them and our intent to address this issue together. Since then, the NuNet team has developed an intuitive, all-in-one solution that dramatically simplifies the process of deploying and managing decentralized infrastructure—including Auki Network nodes. Soon, anyone interested in contributing their spare compute to the Auki Network can get up and running with just a few clicks and guided prompts from the NuNet Appliance.

Our integration with NuNet is a major step toward making participation in the Auki Network more accessible to a broader community of participants.

Why it matters

By helping Auki to ensure that anyone with available compute resources can contribute to the future of decentralized AI perception, NuNet is giving DePIN yet another edge in our race against centralized physical AI alternatives—alternatives that threaten to lock humanity into a world where spatial computing is synonymous with surveillance.

With solutions like the NuNet Appliance, we're driving toward a future where critical infrastructure is funded, owned, and operated by the people.

About Auki Labs

Auki is building the Auki network, a decentralized machine perception network for the next 100 billion people, devices and AI on Earth and beyond. The Auki network is a posemesh, an external and collaborative sense of space that machines and AI can use to understand the physical world.

Our mission is to improve civilization’s intercognitive capacity; our ability to think, experience and solve problems together with each other and AI. The greatest way to extend human reach is to collaborate with others. We are building consciousness-expanding technology to reduce the friction of communication and bridge minds.

About the Auki network

The Auki network is a posemesh: a decentralized machine perception network and collaborative spatial computing protocol, designed to allow digital devices to securely and privately exchange spatial data and computing power to form a shared understanding of the physical world.

The Auki network is an open-source protocol that powers a decentralized, blockchain-based spatial computing network. Designed for a future where spatial computing is both collaborative and privacy-preserving, it limits any organization's surveillance capabilities and encourages sovereign ownership of private maps of personal and public spaces.

The decentralization also offers a competitive advantage, especially in shared spatial computing sessions, AR for example, where low latency is crucial.
