SoftBank Focuses On The Layout Of The Metaverse With AOS To Create A Brand-New Future
Recently, Softbank Ventures Asia publicly announced that it has begun to focus on Metaverse and invested in the AOS project. It will cooperate with AOS to connect and integrate more Metaverses in AI, NFT, robotics, and other fields, and carry the development of large-scale killer applications.
The enthusiastic investment in Metaverse has not subsided, but it has risen again. The technology giants have all entered the Metaverse. Facebook plans to fully transform into Metaverse before 2025, and will set up a product team to accelerate investment in VR/AR and the creator community; Bytedance, which has always believed in Striving for Miracles, merged Mutong Technology for 4 billion USD, and begin to lay out the Metaverse; Axie Infinity builds NFT games based on the Metaverse, subverting the traditional game mode and becoming a phenomenon-level game product; miHOYO, the developer of “Genshin Impact”, formed an AI scientist inverse entropy team, and self-developed Avatar Luming to explore the brain-computer interface. Through investment, miHOYO has successfully deployed the social Metaverse Soul; the Internet industry is renewing and iterating rapidly, and companies need to attach importance to meet unknown concepts and challenges or be left behind by the times.
In the Metaverse era, everything has virtual avatars. The concept of Metaverse seems to be still in the mist today, but the prelude to the new era has been opened, and it is closer than you think.
The popularization of the term Metaverse was cited from the novel Avalanche by American science fiction writer Neil Stephenson in 1992. In his book, he used the word Metaverse for the first time without foundation and described it as a parallel universe projected from the real world through technical means such as the Internet. However, anyone who has watched the movie “Ready Player One” by the great director Steven Spielberg should probably understand this concept. Like the “Oasis” in the movie, the company has created a realistic virtual world outside of the real world. Every player in the real world has another identity in the virtual world, establishes another social circle, and leads another life. Although the Metaverse is only a virtual world, its immersion is so vivid that you will think it is the real world and enjoy life in this new world.
AOS (Artificial Intelligence Operating System) is the first operating system developed by Canada Unicorn Park, based on the underlying blockchain technology to connect the Metaverse. By building a Metaverse bridge online, and using robots as an intelligent carrier offline to build an ecosystem between Metaverses and provide a new experience for integration with Metaverse and the real world.
Based on AOS, users could create an AI NFT that has autonomous consciousness and advanced self-learning capability; And it also gets influenced by the distributed personality database on the chain to build character, and gradually complete neural network-style self-learning and improvements. Most of all, the distributed character database is based on the “Book of Changes” and appropriately constructs the character of AI; users can inject their favorite characters, personalities, voices, etc., into their own AI NFT, and tame it to learn more skills. AOS encourages users to integrate more characters and personalities, combined with NFT to create different artistic values. The custom AI itself has NFT attributes. Users can customize the appearance of AI on the network, and can also authorize access to a third-party character customization system, such as specific character images and voices, and third-party NFT star voices and appearances, packaged in the form of NFT used for trading and collection.
AOS connects the first-generation physical carrier, the AI four-wheel driving robot Mars_1 with the Metaverse and the real world, creating a new user experience.
Mars_1 is a highly integrated artificial intelligence robot product. Its appearance is in the form of a four-legged driving robot dog. It adopts an original five-layer motion control technology and several technical indicators are in a leading position in the global industry. Mars_1 has integrated the Internet of Things, 5G, virtual reality/augmented reality, intelligent driving, swarm intelligence, and other technologies. Mars_1 will obey commands and gradually be closer to a dog and then become to a good assistant to humankind.
On the road to the Metaverse, AOS always hopes to leave a strong and colorful stroke in its own way. Connect the Metaverse through AI and map out the experience and lifestyle of the future. For the world that people dream of, high-intelligence AI coupled with linkage with robots will be an indispensable component of this era. As the aboriginal and basic units of the Metaverse, these virtual species based on AOS will continue to establish connections with us beyond human beings in the infinite space and time of the future, transcending the fetters of races.
Sun Zhengyi believes: “We are about to experience the biggest change in human history. AI will eventually replace human beings. This is not only reflected in knowledge but also in intelligence. This change will happen in this century, and then in the next 30 years, there is no doubt that our focus is on AI, intelligent robots, and the IOTs.” Based on this analysis and judgment, SoftBank has frequently carried out large-scale layouts in the fields of AI, intelligent robots, and IOTs. Start from all aspects to create a powerful robot empire. Today, SoftBank’s industries have completed the layout of the future of the new Internet field as Sun Zhengyi said in the past, and completed more than half of the investment of unicorn companies on a global scale, laying a foundation for the subsequent development of the IOTs in the world.
As a world-renowned “Animation Kingdom”, Japan has an irreplaceable influence in the global animation field. After half a century of development, the Japanese animation industry has formed an extremely large system, making Japan the world’s largest animation production and exporting country, and it also around animation IP to derive cultural and creative products, such as GK. With the development of smart technology, they also work hard in the direction of intelligence for GK. Headquartered in Japan, SoftBank has a unique geographical location and is deeply immersed in Japanese IP culture. This collaboration with AOS will further promote the combination of the GK industry and the AIindustry, and provide AOS with a steady stream of IP resources. Users’ favorite characters such as Luffy, Conan, Sailor Moon, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Inuyasha, etc., can inject their image and personality into AI to create your smart figure. Each AI figure is a unique individual, and different parameters also create different expressions and styles. At the same time, when users have more exchanges with AI, they will gradually become familiar with the user’s temper and preferences and adjust their apparent personality in real-time and dynamically making it infinitely close to the form that we want to see eventually.
The product made by a single company is not enough to be called a Metaverse but constitutes an ecological system. With the deep participation of users, if it is successful in collective efforts to build a more interoperable system, and it can be transformed into different layers, then it should be called a Metaverse. AOS is committed to becoming the link between the physical world and the virtual world, as a bridge between various Metaverses to connect the Metaverse and continue to build a new Metaverse ecology. This will be the top priority in the next stage of the development of the Internet after the mobile Internet.
What kind of world will mankind be in the future? SoftBank Asia and AOS have worked together because of the same concept for Metaverse and jointly created such a grand concept, standing at the forefront of the Metaverse economic tide, seizing opportunities, embracing the new future, and believing that with their win-win cooperation, they will give a perfect answer for the world.

Phomemo Expands Tattoo Stencil Printer Solutions to Support Professional Artists Evolving Workflows
New York, New York, United States, 13th Aug 2026 – Phomemo, a global creative printing brand specializing in thermal printing solutions, has expanded its tattoo stencil printer lineup with two new solutions — the Phomemo TA81 Large-Format Tattoo Stencil Printer and Phomemo L85 Smart Touchscreen Tattoo Stencil Printer — designed to support the evolving needs of professional tattoo artists.
From large-scale body art preparation to everyday studio workflows, different tattoo projects require different printing solutions. While some artists prioritize portability and flexibility, others need tools that can handle full-length designs, customized layouts, and more efficient preparation processes.
Alongside established models including the M08F-WS and M08F Plus, Phomemo’s expanded tattoo printer lineup provides artists with multiple options based on their creative style, workflow, and studio needs.

Choosing the Right Tattoo Stencil Printer Matters
For tattoo artists, stencil preparation is an important step between digital design and the final artwork on skin. A reliable tattoo stencil printer can help artists maintain design accuracy, reduce preparation time, and create a smoother workflow before each session.
However, different tattoo styles create different challenges.
Artists specializing in fine details may prioritize clear and portable printing solutions, while those creating sleeves, back pieces, or large-scale compositions often face a different challenge: preparing oversized stencils without manually assembling multiple sections.
Phomemo’s tattoo stencil printer solutions are designed around these different creative scenarios.
Phomemo TA81: A Large-Format Tattoo Stencil Printer Built for Complex Designs

For artists who regularly create full sleeves, back pieces, legs, or other large-scale tattoo projects, stencil preparation can become one of the most time-consuming parts of the workflow.
Traditionally, oversized tattoo designs often require artists to print multiple stencil sheets, trim edges, align different sections, and carefully transfer the assembled design onto the skin. While this approach can work, maintaining accuracy across a large composition can add extra preparation steps and increase the risk of misalignment.
The Phomemo TA81 was designed to address this challenge with continuous, variable-length stencil printing.
Unlike standard sheet-based printing methods, the TA81 uses a roll-fed system that allows artists to print large tattoo designs in one continuous piece. For full sleeves, back pieces, spine designs, or other extended compositions, artists can create a complete stencil without manually cutting and joining multiple sections.
This one-piece printing workflow helps maintain design continuity and makes stencil preparation more efficient for complex tattoo projects.
Beyond size capability, the TA81 focuses on reducing waste during professional workflows. Its variable-length printing system allows artists to print only the required length for each design rather than relying on fixed-size sheets. For busy studios handling multiple projects, this can help optimize transfer paper usage during daily operations.
The TA81 also features Phomemo’s wrinkle-resistant printing technology, designed to help keep transfer paper flat during longer printing processes. Combined with an upgraded print head and edge-stabilizing design, the printer helps deliver consistent and clear stencil lines throughout the entire design.
With Bluetooth and USB connectivity support, the TA81 can connect with smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktops across Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and ChromeOS systems, giving artists flexibility when preparing designs.
Through the Phomemo App, artists can adjust designs, preview tattoo layouts, split large images, manage transfer settings, and prepare files before printing.
Phomemo L85: Smart Touchscreen Control for a More Customized Workflow

While large-scale artists may prioritize printing size and efficiency, other tattoo professionals look for a more interactive and customizable stencil preparation experience.
The Phomemo L85 is designed for artists who prefer a smarter workflow with direct control through an integrated touchscreen.
Featuring a 5-inch touchscreen with six language options, the L85 allows artists to manage printing tasks directly from the device. Functions such as template selection, brightness adjustment, print mileage tracking, battery information display, timer settings, sensor calibration, and self-testing can be accessed without relying entirely on another device.
For artists working with different tattoo styles and design formats, flexibility is also important. The L85 supports multiple print sizes, including Letter, A4, B5, A5, and additional width options, allowing artists to prepare different stencil layouts based on their projects.
The L85 also works with the Phomemo App ecosystem, providing creative and editing tools such as image transformation, tattoo extraction, line-art conversion, tattoo preview, and large-image splitting.
Optional AI-assisted features, including AI image generation and tattoo extraction, are designed to support artists during the preparation stage by helping explore ideas, refine concepts, and improve workflow efficiency — while keeping the artist’s own creativity and craftsmanship at the center of the design process.
Portable Tattoo Stencil Solutions: M08F-WS and M08F Plus

For artists who prioritize mobility, Phomemo also offers portable tattoo stencil printer solutions designed for flexible everyday workflows.
The Phomemo M08F-WS provides a lightweight wireless printing solution for artists who need a compact setup. Supporting Bluetooth connectivity and multiple operating systems, it allows artists to prepare tattoo stencils from smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktops.
The Phomemo M08F Plus builds on this portable concept with a smarter touchscreen experience. Its built-in touchscreen supports functions including brightness adjustment, auto shutdown, calibration, and self-test printing, helping artists complete basic operations directly from the printer.
With thermal printing technology, both models eliminate the need for ink cartridges while providing a convenient solution for tattoo stencil preparation. Through the Phomemo App, artists can access editing tools, stencil generation, previews, and other workflow features designed to simplify the transition from digital artwork to physical stencil.
Choosing the Right Phomemo Tattoo Stencil Printer
Every tattoo artist has a different creative workflow, and the ideal tattoo stencil printer depends on the type of work being created. All can be found on Phomemo’s official site.
Artists working on large-scale compositions such as sleeves and back pieces may benefit from the Phomemo TA81’s continuous full-length printing capability.
Artists looking for a smart, customizable printing experience can explore the Phomemo L85 with touchscreen control and flexible print options.
Artists who need a portable solution for everyday stencil preparation can choose between the lightweight M08F-WS and the upgraded M08F Plus.
By developing tattoo stencil printers for different artistic scenarios, Phomemo continues to help tattoo professionals simplify preparation, improve efficiency, and focus more on the creative process.
