What is Unai?
Unai is the VR headset for the Decentralized Metaverse. We are building the Hardware, Software, and Art of VR and the Metaverse together to create the best experience possible.
We believe that this integrated approach is how VR will reach its full potential. Furthermore, we believe that:
- The most important use case of VR will be the Decentralized Metaverse.
- The Metaverse won’t belong to a corporation; it will be Decentralized.
- Who controls the Hardware controls the Software. So Unai builds the Hardware of the Metaverse to embrace Decentralization while the others embrace ads and centralization.
What is the Unai company?
In December 2020, Unai Inc. was founded by Maxim Perumal and funded by world-class investors. Maxim previously created Relativty, the world’s most popular Open-Source VR headset (the story).
Unai is a team of experienced, rebellious engineers and creators from companies such as Apple, Intel, Nvidia, Microsoft,..., who lost faith in other companies to do the right thing for VR - and are passionate about making it right at Unai.
