The Virtual / Augmented Reality Platform
John Lennon once wrote a song called “Imagine”. Mr. Lennon spoke of a future where the impossible would become plausible. Now imagine looking out of the window on a space station in a virtual world where you have the ability to seamlessly travel to other virtual hubs and marketplaces for creative collaborations, attend live concerts, get boxing lessons or even setup a virtual date.
Imagine being able to interact with someone on the other side of the world in virtual reality, over a cup of tea accompanied by live music at the same time. Essentially giving you the feeling of being in the same place, in a completely immersive environment of your choice. Envision being able to engage in safe and secure micro transactions seamlessly, with anyone in the same virtual space. Imagine the possibilities of simple secure transactions for entertainment experiences, digital assets and services. All on the same platform.
Vibehub is at the forefront of this technology and is already building the platforms for the coming virtual universe. Every major sector of industry, especially technology companies, are heavily invested in Augmented reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) platforms. Virtual and Augmented reality based applications are the next big computing wave, and we believe the only way to build substantial growth and longevity is to usher blockchain technology into this mixed reality space. We believe that in order to build sustainable value for our platform, we need to embrace the inevitable migration to AR and VR technology.
Vibehub is a Virtual space that allows access to various market hubs by creating a meta-virtual world of our own. The allowance of micro transactions with our VIBE currency will usher in a new paradigm of social interactions as well as safe transactions in a virtual space, which has never been done before. Virtual reality will create social experiences, more personal than a live chat or a phone call, providing a more immersive experience with someone on the other side of the globe, all on our platform. Imagine the captivating prospect of two people dating on our platform, sharing virtual experiences from various hubs in a completely immersive AR/VR environment.
The augmented reality and the virtual reality markets are projected to be worth up to an estimated 162 billion dollars by 2020. Mobile (AR) could be worth as much as much as 83 billion alone, though this technology will take longer to develop than (VR).
In Addition to the browser based version of our platform, we are making the VibeHub platform available on Virtual and Mixed Reality devices as well. We believe that thru this multi platform support we will be able to future proof our applications and currency.
Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, Playstation and Magic leap all have developed competing software platforms to usher in this new era of technology that are hoping for applications like VibeHub to reach mass adoption. VibeHub will partner with these platforms that are pleading for AR/VR content, allowing us to bring our vision to fruition and reach the masses. Revealing to the world our vision of a virtual reality meta-world for all to see.
The first marketplace we are implementing will be for music/content creators. We chose this concept as the first of many because we could not find any decentralized or centralized app that provided a safe marketplace for creators to make equitable exchanges for creative services. This is a great first proof of concept to showcase virtual experiences and micro-transactions on the same platform.
"New estimates from IDC expect total revenue for VR and AR to grow from $5.2 billion in 2016 to more than $162 billion in 2020."

We Are Introducing Crypto Based
Virtual Reality Marketplaces & Hubs
We will introduce several marketplaces and hubs on our platform. All marketplaces will use the same Vibe coin currency.
As A proof of concept, the First marketplace and hub will be a Marketplace For Music Creators.
We will start with the decentralized browser version of this app, and follow it up shortly after with the Virtual Reality version of the platform.
First Proof of Concept:
A Unique Music Marketplace & Hub
For Creators All Over The World
The Marketplace
VibeHub is creating the world’s first fair exchange marketplace that will allow endless opportunities for all artist and creators to exchange services safely. All creators are able to enter the marketplace setting the term of the smart contract to anything they desire, without paying any transaction fees to the platform and them keeping all the profits.
Singers can look for guitar players, keyboard players can look for singers, bass players can look for drummers, bands can look for producers, and videographers can look for bands to complete a music video, etc. If a guitar player had a whole song completed but he is unable to sing and play drums, he would be able to enter the marketplace and hire other musicians to complete his song. The guitar player can make a contract inclusive to a set of terms such as a time limit or monetary amount that he or she is willing to pay the other musicians utilizing our smart contracts. If any of the terms set are broken or if the finished song is not up to par, the contract would be terminated and the funds would be released back to the guitar player.
In February, 2018 augmented and virtual reality technology will be implemented on the VibeHub platform. The marketplace will become a euphoric experience for both musicians and fans all over the world. Eventually leading up to artists being able to play concerts and have meet and greets with fans from the comfort of their own home in Q1 2019.
The Augmented and virtual reality experience will make it appear like you are face to face with your favorite musicians for fans, without leaving your bedroom. Artists will benefit by being able to set their own terms thru our smart contracts. If an artist wants to make a single song concert for his fans at 10 dollars for the viewing, no problem. The artist has the ability to make the smart contract to anything they wish and provide fans with an amazing show with minimal effort.
The Hub
The Hub is a platform that will provide Musicians and music lovers the ability to post content and earn money while doing so. The publishers of the content can also earn money by being tipped by the community members of the hub, if people like the post. Category specifications in the Hub are uniquely specific to account for the evolving landscape of music genres allowing for expanded listings of musically diverse subcategories.
All sections of the Hub will be categorized to give everyone a fair playing field to get their music heard. Original artists will get their own section as well as being included in a related sub categories or sub genre. Music aficionados and lovers will be able to post music they like within every non original section, sub genre or sub-categories of every music genre. This creates a level playing field for any artist, producer or band who is trying to gain exposure instead of being filtered in with a world famous band or mega pop star.
We have designed a social community so original artists have a fair way to earn income off their music. Most artists are only left to post on youtube as a viable option to earn money and this is proving to be a broken system. You need hundreds of thousands of views per video to earn just a modest amount of money cause youtube only pays their contributors by how many ads get watched on the video. We have taken the steem model and applied it to focus on music. Artists will post their videos and the community will decide what the video is worth to them. No more needing to have millions of views to earn a modest amount of money as It's proven now with steem that the community will reward talented artists.
Future for VibeHub
The marketplace and hub for creators and music lovers is only the beginning for VibeHub. Starting in February, 2018 the VibeHub team will start to implement Virtual and Augmented reality into the platform for users to use. Virtual and Augmented reality is the future of internet as we know it. We will begin to test our code on this platform in Q1 of 2018. During this time we will select certain music creators and begin doing sessions in virtual reality.
In Q4 2018 VibeHub will begin the second phase of virtual and augmented reality integration and will allow any creator the ability to put on shows, hold meetings and meet fans through the VibeHub platform.
For example an artist could be sitting in his living room and would be able make a one song concert for people all over the world. With both users having augmented or virtual reality technology the experience would be like if the artist was live right there in front of them. The artist would set the price to whatever he wants in Vibes or even free for his one song show and the fan would pay the artist in Vibes.
VibeHub doesn’t intend to stop there as we intend on being a brand and not just a single platform for artists and music lovers. In Q3 2019 we will provide VibeHub Music, VibeHub Dating, VibeHub Workplace, and VibeHub Gaming. VibeHub Dating will give the opportunity for people to date, no matter which part of the world they both live in and seemingly be face to face with each other. This will completely change the world of online dating as we know today. VibeHub Workplace will have a marketplace that will provide teachers of any talent the opportunity to teach students from all over the world in augmented and virtual reality technology. Spanish lessons, yoga, cooking and boxing, just to name a few. The opportunities in the VibeHub Workplace are endless for people to learn and for educators of any skill in life to earn income.
By having all our marketplaces and hubs on one platform, in
a completely immersive virtual reality experience, it will truly
become a meta-world in virtual reality.
Our Vision of the Future
We believe that the next step for decentralized apps is to embrace the upcoming technology of Virtual, Mixed, and Augmented Reality. Here is a preview of what we envision for the type of Augmented Reality collaborations and interactions we will make possible on this platform Q4 2018. We envision using this technology for studio sessions, concerts, and meet and greets.
Technology behind Vibehub
Vibehub transactions will run on the Ethereum blockchain. It will be compatible with Metamask and Myst browser, making it easier to bridge non-crypto users to our platform for the first time. Our front end is hosted on AWS CloudFront in multi geo locations, which scales automatically to handle any load of users. For the VR/AR Development we are using Unity Engine, SteamVR SDK, Oculus SDK, Microsoft HoloLens SDK, and Sony PSVR SDK.
Using this combinations of technologies, will allow us to develop a cross platform product that will work on existing AR/VR hardware and future hardware as well. The voice chat, and body tracking of avatars in virtual spaces, will use P2P technologies that allow massive user scaling and keep costs down. We take pride in our innovation of integrating our Vibe Coin crypto wallet in the virtual space; As its has never been done before. Future plans for A/R will also include the use of special multi sensor stereographic cameras, to achieve what we like to call “HoloPresence”.
This Technology has be demonstrated by the Microsoft research team in the “HoloPortation” project. Integrating this technology into our platform, will create a unique experience unseen on the blockchain or off the blockchain, for that matter. Additional Operational costs such as data storage and hosting will be handled by the original backers of VibeHub. Remaining a fee less platform is very important to our integrity.
