Niantic Spatial says Pokémon Go AR scans aren’t shared with it after Niantic’s move to Scopely, and that the data-sharing arrangement with Vantor is in early stages and does not include Pokémon Go data. The AR scans were voluntary and used to help train spatial AI, with data sharing effectively ended during the transition away from Niantic to Scopely.
Researchers at the University of Rochester are developing photonic chips using a quantum technique called weak value amplification to replace gyroscopes in drones. The goal is to provide the same sensitivity level as bulk optical gyroscopes on small, handheld chips, enabling drones to navigate in areas where GPS signals are jammed or unavailable. The project, funded by the National Science Foundation, aims to overcome the limitations of current miniaturized gyroscopes and revolutionize drone navigation.
