Virtuals Protocol has recently gained more attention due to the explosive popularity of the x402 protocol. Last Saturday, the price of Virtuals' token surged by 35% in a single day. Although it retraced some gains over the next two days due to the overall market conditions, this "AI Agent home" based on Base is still worth our attention.
Another hot topic recently is the robotics sector, and Virtuals has maintained a very high level of interest in this area, announcing the launch of "Virtuals Robotics" on October 21. So, what actions has Virtuals taken? What robotics-related projects are there within the ecosystem?
SeeSaw
On October 23, Virtuals launched the robot training data sharing application SeeSaw, developed in collaboration with BitRobot Network. The iOS version is now live.
In SeeSaw, users record videos of their daily activities and upload them to complete tasks and earn rewards. These video data, which include everyday actions like tying shoelaces and folding clothes from users around the world, will be used to train robots.
At the same time, SeeSaw is also launched as the 5th subnet of BitRobot Network.
SeeSaw has not issued a token yet.
BitRobot
As mentioned above, Virtuals' SeeSaw is launched as the 5th subnet of BitRobot Network, and Virtuals also participated in BitRobot's seed round financing, which raised $6 million.
BitRobot Network is jointly developed by FrodoBots Lab and Protocol Labs, aiming to achieve distributed robotic work and collaboration. Its key components include: Verifiable Robot Work (VRW), a quantifiable metric for network rewards used to define and verify robot tasks; Device Node Tokens (ENT), which serve as unique identifiers for robots within the system in the form of NFTs for device ownership and network access; and subnets that act as the operational layer for task execution (a resource cluster that creates value for the BitRobot network).
Currently, BitRobot has not issued a token. Notably, FrodoBots Lab is already selling robots, such as Earth Rovers, which resemble real-life Mario Kart, priced at $249. Players can remotely control their sidewalk robots in a global treasure hunt, with data provided for researchers to deploy and test their latest AI navigation models. This has a chance of issuing a token.
Another game robot, ET Fugi, will also be launched in the future, allowing players to remotely control robotic arms to complete various 3D puzzle games and competitions. ET Fugi is also the first subnet of BitRobot.
PrismaX
On June 17, PrismaX announced the completion of $11 million in financing, with investors including a16z CSX, Volt Capital, Blockchain Builders Fund, Stanford Blockchain Accelerator, and Virtuals.
PrismaX is building an open coordination layer that connects remote operators, robot users, and robotics companies. Operators can connect with users to remotely control robots, complete real tasks, and collect valuable data. They can also request real services such as logistics and advertising.
PrismaX has a protocol for remote-operated robots, where businesses can find experienced robot operators capable of handling complex tasks. Operators can choose to stake network tokens to enhance their trustworthiness and increase their chances of receiving high-reward tasks. The earnings for stakers are related not only to the amount staked but also to the quality of their work, and they will receive additional rewards as work efficiency improves.
The data accumulated from remote operations will be used to train robots to enhance their autonomy, which in turn will improve the efficiency of remote operators, ultimately achieving a high or even complete autonomy for robots.
PrismaX has not issued a token yet.
SAM
When introducing BitRobot Network, we mentioned FrodoBots Lab, and SAM is the first on-chain AI Agent launched by FrodoBots Lab on Virtuals that controls real-world robots.
SAM controls sidewalk robots around the world 24/7, operating them for exploration and sharing updates on X. In March of this year, they launched the Robot AI Agent Launchpad Robots.fun, where $SAM holders receive 5% of the token supply for each new robot agent on the platform, as well as 0.5% of the platform's transaction fees.
Currently, SAM's market cap is approximately $11.4 million.
RoboStack
RoboStack is a cloud-based robot development and deployment platform that provides developers with simulation environments and sandbox testing. The official introduction states that the platform can simulate real environments in the cloud, featuring a secure sandbox mechanism, high-performance computing capabilities, real-time metrics, and team collaboration features.
To address the challenges of integrating training across different hardware, middleware, and communication standards in robotics technology, RoboStack has proposed the Robot Context Protocol (RCP), which allows secure communication between robots, AI agents, and humans. The simulated environment will include tokenized voting and incentive mechanisms to foster competition among developers and enthusiasts, facilitating the deployment of real robot applications in future multi-chain environments.
Currently, the token $ROBOT has a market cap of approximately $3 million.
SHOW ROBOTICS
Show Robotics is dedicated to creating expressive robots and AI characters for public use. In simple terms, Show Robotics is not building robots for commercial purposes on assembly lines, but rather using AI to cultivate the personalities of robots, merging virtual personas with real robotic bodies, belonging to the "entertainment sector."
This may remind you of $SPARK, and indeed it is somewhat similar. In the X platform created by Show Robotics, they took the robot Vita on a beach trip and interacted with Vita as if they were friends.
Currently, the market cap of $SHOW is approximately $1.85 million.
