Niantic Spatial

Last week at Signals of TEDAI San Francisco, we brought together leaders in AI, robotics, and spatial technologies to explore how real-world AI is taking shape—connecting humans and machines in the world we share.

The future of AI is about understanding the world itself.

Geotypical vs Geospecific models: one learns how the world works, the other maps where things are.

Together, they form the foundation for embodied intelligence.

We created ImaginateAR, a prototype app that lets anyone co-create AR worlds by speaking their imagination — now accepted into UIST!

It advances AI-assisted AR authoring with outdoor scene understanding, fast 3D asset generation, and LLM-driven speech.

At #TEDAI San Francisco, CEO John Hanke joined the Frontiers of Multimodal AI panel, sharing: “The domain of human beings, a sort of pedestrian world, is what we’re covering.”
The next frontier? AI that understands where it is in the world.

Mapping the future of cities starts here. 🌍

SF Mayor Daniel Lurie visited the Niantic Spatial office, then joined CEO John Hanke for a walk through Fisherman’s Wharf to see how geospatial AI and Niantic VPS help robots & AR glasses understand the real world.

At the Kingdom Digital Twin Summit 2025 in Riyadh, Tory Smith, Director of Product Management, shared how we’re advancing Spatial AI through 3 pillars: 🧩 Reconstruct, 📍Localize, and 🧠 Understand — powering the next evolution of digital twins and real-world intelligence.

Introducing PlaceIt3D — ICCV 2025, Honolulu 🌺

What feels natural for us — “put the lamp next to the sofa” or “move this character where it can’t be seen from the doorway” — is still one of the hardest challenges in AI.
