My Neighborhood

Inspiration

The world of VR, AR, MR is a world with infinite and wonderful possibilities. However, it is a world that, due to many social, psychological, economic, and mechanical barriers, is becoming an exclusive sector where only those who are truly interested have access and understand the use, advantages, and possibilities of this wonderful world. For me, it is very sad to see that true talents and economic opportunities are being wasted, which would work perfectly for everyone at different levels of society, creating a true global ecosystem where every inhabitant of the planet Earth could have the possibility of telling their story, showing their dreams, doing business, communicating openly with any person in the world, and projecting the future of the community, neighborhood, city, country, etc. and creating that unity that could be the planet Earth.

For many, it is a utopia, but for me, the virtual world is the easiest and most accessible way to unite the planet in a self-sustaining community for everyone.

This is what inspires me to create My Neighborhood, a place where developers, marketers, product designers, artists, companies, entrepreneurs, countries, cities, communities, etc. and all types of professionals can connect in a dynamic ecosystem of creation, promotion, entertainment, business, and continuous monetization using the tools we have at our disposal today, such as blockchain and many other tools that will be integrated to achieve it.

The project has been developed from this perspective and with interest, and I am a student of XR development in Sweden with 5 months of study, but I have a great background as a graphic designer, product designer, sound technician, and project manager, and I have developed My Neighborhood using all the tools I know so far.

The challenges I face are all those related to the permissions and uses of third-party tools, which unfortunately will be economic barriers in many cases. However, the idea and the study of the possibilities of developing this platform, its mode, and its use for the inclusion of any inhabitant of the planet is thought to make it real, even if there are different barriers, since everyone will be interested in entering My Neighborhood because it is a platform for you, for me, and for everyone.

What it does

My Neighborhood is a platform that connects developers, marketers, product designers, artists, companies, entrepreneurs, countries, cities, communities, etc. and all types of professionals in a dynamic ecosystem of creation, promotion, entertainment, business, and continuous monetization using the tools we have at our disposal today, such as blockchain and many other tools that will be integrated to achieve it.

How we built it

The project has been developed from scratch using all the tools I know so far, including graphic design, product design, sound engineering, and project management. I wanted to show what the platform would be and I have used the graphic designer tools in this project I want to show the idea of what it would be As a student of XR development in Sweden with 5 months of study, I have been able to develop My Neighborhood using a combination of theoretical knowledge and practical experience.

Challenges we ran into

The main challenges I face are related to the permissions and uses of third-party tools, which unfortunately will be economic barriers in many cases. Additionally, the development of a platform that aims to be inclusive and accessible to everyone is a complex task that requires a lot of effort and resources.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Despite the challenges, I am proud of the progress I have made so far in developing My Neighborhood. I wanted to show what the platform would be and I have used the graphic designer tools in this project I want to show the idea of what it would be in the best possible way but it should be developed from scratch. This encourages me because I am surrounded by many students from different countries at my university XR developers who are excited about the project that belive in the potential of the platform, and I am excited to continue working on it to make it a reality.

What we learned

Through the development of My Neighborhood, I have learned a lot about the importance of collaboration, communication, and creativity in the development of a project. I have also learned about the need to be flexible and adaptable in the face of challenges and uncertainties. Furthermore, and above all, I have become increasingly convinced that if a platform like Mi Bario de vecino is not created, VR.AR and MR will take many more years to enter the lives of everyone. Right now, the majority feel that it is only useful for playing very realistic games. And I want to change this perception because I know the great potential that VR has for the world in all its fields of action.

What's next for My Neighborhood

The next step for My Neighborhood is developing the platform and having the focus on the API to be able to integrate everything in an easy way for everyone. In addition to working with VR product developers and everything related to the world of developers who lose their hopes due to the hard work that this entails without having economic rewards, which causes great ideas and great talents to be lost. Making it more inclusive and accessible to everyone. I plan to integrate more tools and features, and to work with a team of developers, designers, and other professionals to make the platform a reality. I am excited to see where this project will take me and how it will impact the world.
