Mir (Russian: Мир, lit. World) is an Oriental mixed reality, online super-app developed and published by Panon, a subsidiary of Intra platforms. On this multi-user mixed reality platform, players move and interact with each other in an enhanced augmented reality world where interactive UI are added in real-time to provide more information and ease real world interaction. Users must use a wearable mixed reality system such as the Netra or the Apple Vision Pro to access this world.
History
Early Development
It was initially developed as an augmented-reality mobile app named Holoverse by Mugen's company, Panon in 2033. The goal at that time was to improve online shopping by using augmented reality, as well as to compete with visionOS of the Mac Vision Pro.
Acquisition
The Panon company, including its Holoverse system was acquired by Intra platforms in 2035, and was rebranded to "Mir". Originally, it was updated and developed as a successor for the Worlds virtual-reality game, but later, was redeveloped into a mixed reality super-app that includes real-time messaging, shopping, learning, and video streaming.
Latest Release
After Orientia's independence in 2043, Panon added new features to help awakeneds interact with other awakened humans as well. The features added the capability to see other awakened's informations (including their Qi and class), as well as match-making for spar events in a form of a game. Currently, there are few plans to integrate Fite, an Amenrian mobile application that has the same feature.
Operation
Users create a profile using their phone number, where they'd be instructed to fill their information, mostly regarding their address and preferred payment network. For users intend to use the system for learning, they're required to fill their school's name and student ID.
After setting up a profile, they can use the whole features of the app by interacting with floating UI in front of them. For shopping, they can open a shop system that is similar to e-commerce applications, but with abilities to place or interact with the desired item in real-time. Users can also check their bank statement if they wish to connect their bank account with the application. Messaging features are also available by using the integrated FaceMash messenger feature that allow users to chat and call each other. For designers and architects alike, they can subscribe to "Sketch" features that comes exclusively for Mac Vision Pro.
A more comprehensive personal information and match-making system are available for users registered as awakened humans where they can check their own physiology by saying "status window", and other awakened's informations such as name, gender, species, reputation, class and guild affiliation. Awakeneds can gain their reputation by finishing daily, weekly challenges provided by the National Awakened Association.
Companies can also put ads inside the system, by placing them on the streets, empty billboards or on top of buildings (usually require companies to pay fees to the the building owner). Mir is globally available, and uses a blockchain-network for cross-platform interoperability and security.
