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.

Adex Group Expands Mezzanine Floor Solutions to Meet Rising Demand in Sydney and Brisbane’s Industrial Sector

Published

on

As industrial space tightens across both cities, Adex Group is scaling its mezzanine floor design and installation services to help warehouse operators, manufacturers, and retailers add capacity without relocating.

Girraween, NSW, Australia, 6th Aug 2026 – Adex Group, a specialist in mezzanine floors, mezzanine offices, and industrial space optimisation, has expanded its mezzanine floor solutions for warehouse operators, manufacturers, and retailers across Sydney and Brisbane. The expansion responds to sustained demand from businesses seeking to add usable floor space inside their existing buildings rather than relocate to new premises.

Adex Group’s mezzanine solutions allow operators to add between 30 and 100 per cent more usable floor area within their current footprint, without triggering a lease change and, in most buildings with sufficient ceiling clearance, without interrupting day-to-day operations. The company designs, manufactures, and installs each system to suit the building and the operation, from pallet storage and packing areas to parts storage and mezzanine offices.

The expansion comes as industrial vacancy across Sydney and Brisbane remains tight, particularly for prime and super-prime space. Sydney’s industrial vacancy rate sits at 5.8 per cent, the highest of any capital city, according to JLL Research’s Q1 2026 industrial vacancy update, while Brisbane’s has held broadly stable at around 5 per cent. Cushman & Wakefield’s Inflection Point report forecasts prime industrial rents to grow 3.9 per cent in both 2026 and 2027, with national rental growth expected to average 4.8 per cent per year through to 2030.

Against that backdrop, the maths behind relocation is getting harder. Moving to a larger, higher-spec facility often means paying more for less flexibility, and many suitable sites are simply unavailable. For operators reviewing their options, staying put and using the vertical space already inside their building becomes the pragmatic choice.

A mezzanine floor is an intermediate level built inside an existing warehouse, workshop, or industrial building. Depending on the ceiling height, a mezzanine can add 30 to 100 per cent more usable floor area without extending the site’s footprint or triggering a lease change. In most buildings with sufficient clearance, the extra space can be delivered while day-to-day operations continue.

The applications are broad. Mezzanines are being used to:

  • Add pallet storage above ground-level racking in warehouses and logistics facilities
  • Free floor space for new production lines in manufacturing plants
  • Create dedicated packing and dispatch areas for e-commerce and retail operators
  • Add parts storage and office space above automotive service bays
  • Extend storage capacity vertically in import and distribution facilities

The financial argument is straightforward. Relocation costs typically include lease breaks, downtime, staff disruption, fit-out of a new facility, and lost productivity during transition. Adding capacity inside an existing building sidesteps most of those costs entirely.

Australia’s industrial property cycle is moving into a phase where landlords hold the upper hand. For businesses without the leverage to secure new prime space at a workable rent, the practical response is often to make the existing building work harder.

Sonar Sciences Launches Platform for Testing and Publishing Algorithmic Trading Strategies

Published

on

The platform validates each strategy against four years of cross-venue market data and flags statistical overfitting before a result reaches a subscriber

DE, United States, 6th Aug 2026 – Sonar Sciences, a strategy-research platform for algorithmic and rules-based traders, gives pro traders a structured way to build a trading hypothesis, test it against four years of cross-venue price data, and see exactly where it holds up and where it breaks, before that strategy is ever shown to a subscriber or tied to a dollar of real capital.

The platform arrives at a moment when trading-signal marketplaces have grown faster than the tools that verify what those signals actually do. Retail platforms show equity curves. Broker forums show screenshots. Almost none of it separates a genuinely tested idea from a fitted one, and few of the tools available to independent traders were built to make that distinction visible in the first place.

Most traders can produce a backtest faster than they can tell you whether to trust it. Sonar Sciences tested the platform itself for six months before allowing a single result to be published on it, on the premise that the entire product fails the moment a number on the screen isn’t real. The validation layer exists to do the part most platforms skip: tell a pro trader when their own strategy is lying to them.

A workspace built around one question: does this actually hold up

Sonar Sciences‘ core workflow starts where most trading tools stop. A pro trader defines a strategy as an explicit, testable rule set, rather than a vague idea or a chart pattern, and runs it against Sonar Sciences‘ cross-venue data spanning four years across multiple asset classes and market regimes. The platform then returns model-level results, including a deflated Sharpe ratio calculation designed to flag when a strategy’s apparent performance is more a function of repeated testing than real edge, alongside walk-forward analysis, drawdown behavior, and out-of-sample checks that most independent traders have no repeatable way to run today.

That distinction matters more than it sounds. A strategy that looks strong on a single historical window can fall apart the moment market conditions shift, and the traders most exposed to that risk are usually the ones with the least tooling to catch it before it costs them. Sonar Sciences‘ validation layer exists specifically to surface that failure mode before a strategy reaches a live audience, not after.

Once a strategy clears validation, Sonar Sciences‘ Trader Lab gives the pro trader a full research environment to keep iterating: professional-grade charting, multi-timeframe analysis, an extensive indicator library, and bar-by-bar backtest replay with trades visualized directly on the chart. Every feature in the Lab is free today. Sonar Sciences‘ view is that a research tool should never be the thing standing between a trader and a properly tested idea, so the cost sits on the platform’s side of the ledger, not the trader’s.

What happens after a strategy is validated

A validated strategy can be published to Sonar Sciences‘ marketplace as a versioned, standardized recommendation stream, the kind of structured, machine-readable output that a broker or exchange connection can consume directly rather than a trader manually re-entering trades from a signal feed. Subscribers who follow a published strategy get a system-computed stats page rather than a self-reported screenshot, and every material event on the platform, publish, subscribe, execution, payout, is logged with a correlation ID for audit.

Money on the platform moves through an integer-exact, double-entry ledger, the same accounting discipline used in payment infrastructure, specifically because floating-point rounding has no place anywhere near a trader’s capital. Pro traders who publish a winning strategy earn a share of subscriber activity on that strategy, settled against that ledger, with identity verification required only at the point of payout rather than at every step of research and testing. Execution itself runs through Sonar Sciences‘ own pluggable connector layer, architected to support MT5 and exchange venues without rebuilding a strategy each time a new venue is added.

Sonar Sciences is explicit about where the platform stands today: live execution is being rolled out carefully, connector by connector, and the company is not marketing any capability as live before it has been verified as such. That sequencing, validate first, publish second, execute only once verified, is the same order the platform asks every pro trader to follow with their own strategies.

Three moves, one workflow

Sonar Sciences‘ team describes the platform as three moves rather than a feature list: prove it, publish it, get paid on it, in that order and never out of sequence.

The first move is proof. A pro trader writes down the rule, not just the intuition behind it, and Sonar Sciences runs that rule against the same four years of cross-venue history every other strategy on the platform is measured against, so results are comparable rather than cherry-picked. The deflated Sharpe ratio calculation exists because a high raw Sharpe ratio can simply mean a trader tested enough variations of a strategy until one of them got lucky. Deflating for that effect is standard practice in serious quantitative research and rare in retail-facing tools, and Sonar Sciences treats it as a gate rather than an optional metric.

The second move is publication, and only strategies that clear validation are eligible. A published strategy becomes a versioned recommendation stream, timestamped and immutable once live, so a subscriber following version 3 of a strategy knows exactly what changed if the pro trader later ships version 4.

The third move is payment, and it only activates once a strategy is both live and winning. Sonar Sciences takes a share of that activity rather than a flat subscription fee from the trader who built the strategy, which the company says is a deliberate choice to keep the incentive aligned with real performance rather than with volume of strategies published.

Why now

Interest in algorithmic and copy-style trading has grown steadily as retail traders look past discretionary strategies toward systems they can test and repeat, and a wider set of brokers and exchanges now expose the kind of API access that makes automated execution realistic for an individual trader rather than only a fund. That growth has outpaced the tooling available to verify whether a given system actually works, which is the gap Sonar Sciences is built to close.

Independent quant researchers and MT5 or Python-based strategy developers already have partial tools for parts of this workflow. Charting platforms are excellent for analysis but were not built to own the full path from research to publication. Broker-run signal marketplaces are built for distribution, not for disciplined testing. Full quant research environments exist but often require significant setup before a trader can see a usable result. Sonar Sciences is built for the trader in between: someone who already has a strategy or a prototype and wants a faster, more honest way to find out if it deserves to go further.

The traders Sonar Sciences is built for have usually already been burned once, either by their own overfit backtest or by someone else’s unverified claim. Sonar Sciences is not asking any pro trader to take its word that a strategy has an edge. It is built to be the place a trader goes to find out.

Availability

Sonar Sciences is free to use at sonar-sci.com. Pro traders get full use of Trader Lab and the validation engine at no cost, plus visibility on the marketplace once a strategy is published. A paid tier, Pro Desk, is planned for traders who need team, portfolio, and export capabilities beyond the core research workflow, with pricing and timing to be announced separately.

A pro trader who signs up can define a strategy and run it through the same evaluation the platform uses for every published result, with no minimum account size, no funding requirement, and no obligation to publish anything publicly. Traders can bring an existing MT5 expert advisor, a QuantConnect model, or a rule set that has only ever lived in a spreadsheet, and get the same structured evaluation.
