SoftBank Focuses On The Layout Of The Metaverse With AOS To Create A Brand-New Future

Published

on

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 AI​industry, 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.

Beyond the Goodbye: Final Moment Unveils Enhanced “Legacy Milestones” to Bridge the Gap Between Generations

Published

on

Carrolton, GA, 23rd April 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Following a landmark launch that redefined digital remembrance, Final Moment is doubling down on its mission to humanize technology. The company today announced the rollout of “Legacy Milestones,” a series of enhanced features designed to turn digital archives into living, breathing connections for families navigating life’s most important chapters. While the initial launch proved that the world was ready for a digital memorial platform, this next phase focuses on the “active” side of memory. Final Moment is no longer just a place to store the past; it is becoming a vehicle for future presence.

The Power of Being There, Even When You’re Not

The heart of the update lies in the expanded Milestone Messaging system. Users can now curate “Life Packages”—batches of videos, letters, and advice specifically triggered by their loved ones’ future life events, such as a child’s graduation, a wedding day, or even the birth of a grandchild.

We realized very quickly that our users weren’t just looking for a digital filing cabinet; they were looking for a way to still provide comfort and wisdom from the sidelines,” said Michael Avery, Founder and CEO of Final Moment. “With Legacy Milestones, we’re making it possible for a father to walk his daughter down the aisle through a video message recorded years prior, or for a grandmother to share a secret recipe on a specific holiday. It’s about being present for the moments that matter most.”

New Innovations in the Second Chapter

To support this deepened emotional connection, Final Moment has introduced several key updates:

    • The “Wisdom Well”: A dedicated space for users to record “Life Lessons” or ethical wills, categorized by topic (finances, love, resilience), ensuring their values are inherited alongside their assets.
    • Enhanced Interactive Timelines: A more intuitive interface that allows families to collaborate on a loved one’s memorial, adding their own stories and photos to create a multi-perspective history.
    • Verified Legacy Handover: A streamlined security protocol that ensures designated “Legacy Guardians” can access content seamlessly when the time comes, providing peace of mind without the technical headache.

      A Human Approach to a Growing Industry

      Co-founder Damien Hinman emphasizes that while the tech is sophisticated, the goal is simplicity. “We’ve seen a massive shift in how people view their digital footprint,” Hinman noted. “People don’t want to be remembered by a cold social media profile. They want a curated, warm, and intentional legacy. We are providing the tools to make that transition from ‘data’ to ‘heritage’.”

      Scaling for the Future

      The success of the initial launch has paved the way for Final Moment to integrate more deeply with the funeral and estate planning sectors. By offering a bridge between traditional end-of-life services and the digital age, Final Moment is quickly becoming the gold standard for how modern families manage the emotional weight of loss. “Our goal is to ensure no story is ever lost to time,” Avery added. “This update is another step toward making sure that when we say ‘goodbye,’ it doesn’t mean our story has to end.”

      About Final Moment

      Final Moment is a technology-driven company dedicated to transforming remembrance and legacy preservation. Founded by Michael Avery with Damien Hinman as cofounder, the company combines secure digital storage with emotional storytelling tools that empower individuals to build online memorials, share lasting messages, and connect with loved ones beyond life.

Long Lake Camp for the Arts Celebrates Decades of Fostering Creative Excellence in New York

  • A legacy of artistic achievement continues as Long Lake Camp remains a leading destination for immersive performing arts education for youth.

Dobbs Ferry, NY, 23rd April 2026, ZEXPRWIRE — For more than five decades, Long Lake Camp for the Arts has stood as a cornerstone of creative education in New York, shaping generations of young performers, artists, and storytellers. As one of the nation’s most respected overnight performing arts programs, the camp proudly celebrates its enduring legacy of fostering artistic growth, confidence, and lifelong passion for the arts.

Founded in 1969, Long Lake Camp for the Arts was built on the belief that young people thrive when given the freedom to express themselves creatively while receiving professional guidance. Set against the scenic backdrop of the Adirondack Mountains, the camp provides an immersive environment where campers ages 8 to 16 engage in theater, music, dance, and fine arts in a supportive, community-driven setting.

Over the years, Long Lake has earned national recognition for its role in nurturing talent that has gone on to achieve success across major creative industries.

“Long Lake Camp has always been about more than performance—it’s about helping young people discover who they are through creative expression,” said a representative of the camp. “Our goal is to provide a space where every camper feels supported, encouraged, and inspired to grow both artistically and personally.”

Unlike traditional programs that follow rigid schedules, Long Lake Camp offers a flexible, camper-driven structure. Participants design their own daily experiences, choosing from a wide range of disciplines and activities that align with their interests. This personalized approach allows campers to build skills at their own pace while gaining exposure to multiple art forms.

Campers receive daily instruction and mentorship from experienced artists and educators while gaining access to professional-grade theaters, studios, and creative workspaces. They participate in fully staged productions, concerts, and showcases, all while enjoying a balance of artistic training and traditional camp experiences such as swimming, kayaking, and community events.

This combination of structure and creative freedom has positioned Long Lake as a leader among overnight performing arts programs in New York. The camp’s philosophy emphasizes collaboration, exploration, and confidence-building, helping campers develop not only technical abilities but also strong communication and interpersonal skills.

Families consistently recognize the lasting impact of the Long Lake experience. Many campers return year after year, building lasting friendships and deepening their artistic abilities. Parents often note significant growth in confidence, independence, and self-expression after just one session.

As Long Lake Camp for the Arts reflects on decades of excellence, it remains committed to evolving alongside the needs of today’s young artists.

Long Lake Camp for the Arts Redefines the Performing Arts Summer Camp Experience for 2026

Published

on

  • A new era of creative immersion begins in the Adirondacks, where young artists ages 8–16 design their own path in theater, music, dance, and fine arts.

Dobbs Ferry, NY, 23rd April 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Long Lake Camp for the Arts announces an exciting and expanded vision for its 2026 summer season, continuing its decades-long tradition of artistic excellence while introducing enhanced programming designed to meet the evolving needs of today’s young performers and creators.

Nestled on a private 200-acre lakefront campus in the heart of New York’s Adirondack Mountains, Long Lake Camp has long stood apart from traditional summer programs. Rather than prescribing a rigid curriculum, the camp empowers each child to customize their experience across theater, musical performance, dance, visual arts, and music composition. For 2026, that core philosophy remains—now supported by expanded masterclasses, interdisciplinary workshops, and new performance opportunities.

Campers ages 8 to 16 choose how they want to spend their summer: starring in musicals, developing dramatic monologues, building portfolios in painting and sculpture, composing original music, or blending multiple disciplines into a uniquely personalized schedule. Professional directors, teaching artists, and working performers provide daily instruction through one-on-one coaching, ensemble rehearsals, studio intensives, and detailed performance critiques.

Every child who comes to Long Lake deserves the opportunity to discover their creative voice in a setting that is both professionally rigorous and emotionally supportive. Our goal is to give young artists the tools, mentorship, and confidence they need to thrive—not just on stage, but in life,” said a spokesperson for Long Lake Camp for the Arts.

The result is a pre-professional training environment that remains developmentally supportive and age-appropriate. At Long Lake, artistic rigor coexists with encouragement. There are no mandatory auditions to participate in productions, ensuring that every camper performs at a level aligned with their confidence and goals.

Long Lake’s legacy of excellence is reflected in the accomplishments of its alumni. Academy Award winner Adrien Brody, known for his performance in The Pianist, began honing his craft at Long Lake. Grammy Award-winning performer Cristin Milioti, recognized for her work in Palm Springs and on Broadway, is also among its former campers. Internationally acclaimed actress Chiara Mastroianni, recipient of France’s César Award, once stood on the same Adirondack stage current campers call their own.

Yet Long Lake measures success not solely by accolades, but by personal transformation. Families consistently report that campers return home with heightened confidence, stronger communication skills, and a deeper sense of self-expression. The camp’s structure intentionally balances disciplined artistic training with classic summer recreation. Outside rehearsal hours, campers swim, kayak, participate in talent nights, gather around campfires, and build lifelong friendships in a technology-light, community-centered environment.

The 2026 season will also introduce expanded wellness and performance psychology workshops, helping young artists develop resilience, stage presence, and collaborative skills—tools that serve them well beyond the performing arts.

With professional theaters, rehearsal studios, costume and set design facilities, music rooms, and fine arts spaces all located on its scenic lakefront property, Long Lake provides an infrastructure rarely found in youth programs. Every production is camper-driven, guided by expert mentorship yet fueled by individual creativity.

Due to consistently high enrollment and strong return rates, spaces for the 2026 season are expected to fill quickly. Families are encouraged to inquire early to secure preferred session dates and housing options.
