Immersive demo at AWE USA 2025, showcasing breakthrough technologies that can connect the world’s population to on-demand, unlimited 3D content, and third-party real-time services
LONG BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#3dbrowser--The world is on the brink of the most significant software transition since the advent of the web browser. Today, we browse flat websites on handheld screens. Tomorrow, we’ll browse 3D spatial content blended with the real world through AR and VR devices. The browser becomes a gateway to the first open ecosystem for 3D content.
Today, RP1, a leader in spatial computing software and infrastructure, unveils the world’s first Metaverse Browser and ground-breaking technologies to deliver on that vision.
The future of the spatial internet will consist of persistent 3D content and millions of real-time, third-party services. This monumental technology shift will dramatically transform how people interact and businesses operate. In the future, businesses won’t just have websites; they’ll have interactive, 3D locations where AI greets customers, guides them to products, and powers everything from employee training to inventory. This transformation will revolutionize every industry from retail and hotels to hospitals, airports, and schools.
“No single company will own the infrastructure of the metaverse — it must be open,” said Sean Mann, Co-Founder and CEO of RP1. “RP1 lets developers and businesses build and deploy spatial software on their own server infrastructure, with full ownership and control while remaining instantly discoverable and accessible across devices — no pre-compiled app downloads or installations are required, just like web browsing. Anyone can experience it now at www.rp1.com.”
Major players — Apple, Meta, Google, Samsung — are racing to develop AR glasses that will eventually replace smartphones. But while these companies are having trouble solving for today’s needs, RP1 is solving for what comes next: a truly open, spatial internet made of millions of real-time, interconnected services. Any individual or company will be able to experience and build spaces or services freely with third-party tools, as opposed to other walled garden 3D platforms.
“Current browsers like Chrome and Safari were not designed for immersive, real-time 3D content and services for AR glasses,” added Mann. “RP1’s 3D Browser is built for a world of real-time, volumetric, spatial experiences. It connects the entire global population with 3D content inside a single, persistent XR ecosystem — across virtual and physical locations spanning education, commerce, entertainment, digital twins, smart cities, work, transportation, and even space exploration.”
This marks the first real software foundation for the spatial internet, featuring industry-first technologies.
Breakthrough Innovations Behind RP1’s Metaverse Browser:
- Unprecedented Scalability to connect the entire world’s population (vs. 40 users per instance/server in current 3D platforms like Roblox or Meta Horizon Worlds) in a single unsharded architecture with full spatial audio and 6DOF, making it seamless to connect with anyone, at any time, and with any content.
- Unlimited Map that includes a fully-continuous, 1:1 scale digital twin of Earth, our solar system, and the farthest reaches of the universe, for frictionless discovery and navigation of augmented and virtual spatial content.
- Real-time API that enables any real-time third-party service, including AI, payments, games, and businesses (stores, hotels, etc.) to easily connect to the 3D browser across both augmented and virtual environments.
- Decentralized Hosting for businesses to run their own worlds and services on their own servers, not inside a closed platform like Roblox or Meta.
“I'm excited about the first metaverse browser solution that creates an open and scalable XR ecosystem. Like Chrome for websites, it has the potential to remove friction/limitations for studios, brands and agencies looking to activate inside the XR and UGC gaming space. It's early days but the RP1 point of view is fresh, bold and unique.” added Nic Hill, Co-Founder & Chief Innovation Officer at Sawhorse.
With RP1, the spatial internet isn’t a concept — it’s here. And it’s open for everyone on all devices.
