Every country has different requirements and regulations, it's unfortunately not just about shipping. We own all the games, but are focused on the USA for right now.

We've played around with detecting various hand and arm gestures to digitally reveal/hide hidden information, but none of our launch titles ended up needing it. If you've got an idea that requires it, happy to work with you to make it happen!

We've done a bunch of testing with our manufacturer, and have found that it's really resilient against spills, but don't go setting it in a bathtub.

There's currently a Unity SDK, we're just super focused on our launch and haven't been able to flesh out those pages. We'll be fleshing it out over the coming weeks, email developer@board.fun to hear about it the moment we update!

No cost for the SDK, we'll be fleshing out our SDK pages over the next couple weeks. Email developer@board.fun to be the first to get access!

Apologies! We're a small team, and have to focus our efforts on one market for the time being. We'll be looking to expand as soon as we're able.

Starting with the USA for now, expanding over time!

It's possible to make your own pieces with a multi-material 3d printer (our early prototypes have been made with Bambu X1C & H2D printers), though it's pretty finicky to do so, and requires some rather expensive filament. Happy to help anyone along though!

The SDK is open-source, no fees required. Coming in the next week or two. We're figuring out the specific details regarding registration, and would love feedback one way or the other if this is critical for you. If you want to be notified the moment it hits, email us: developers@board.fun

This is nearly bang on correct. The pieces don't contain any electronics or sensors, they have a conductive pattern built into the surface using specialized materials and a manufacturing technique we developed in house. Our custom software stack processes the raw data from the device's touch sensor using embedded ML on the NPU, which detects and tracks the pieces in real time.

That said, the device can detect the pieces whether you touch them or not. Touching them absolutely does change the response, and we pass that along as a parameter to the SDK.

Your coin exploration is seriously cool, please hit me up when you're next in NYC!

Currently the sdk is built for Unity, we’re working on Unreal/Godot though!

1. This is absolutely the case for the launch portfolio. These games are super unique experiences that are really only possible from mixing the physical and digital in this way. Does the site not make that clear to you? Super useful feedback!

2. The piece sets can be used as is for new games/apps, especially for prototyping! However if it’s super promising and you want to bring it into our (future) store, we’d love to work with you to make a bespoke set of pieces to go with the game. Whether the launch sets are modular enough as-is is really dependent on the ergonomics and aesthetics of the game you want to make. We’re excited to make ourselves available to devs who want to explore this though, and happy to work with folks to figure out ways forward.

Thank you!

Just launched today at TechCrunch Disrupt. Our 12 game launch portfolio was all developed in Unity using our sdk, and we cannot be more excited to see what developers can make with our launch piece sets!

Each of the bronze sculptors involved are talented artists, trying to make money and make more art.

The corporation and the marketing firm didn't make Fearless Girl, Kristen Visbal did.

Seeing as Shanghai already has paid Di Modica for an edition of the bull installed on the Bund, seems unlikely they'd be interested. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bund_Bull

I'd love to see travel modes take off. I was talking with some friends about how great it would be to be able to switch my login credentials to some sort of shared multiple person-required password for the duration of a flight. Like Shamir's Secret Sharing, but temporarily.

This is pretty insightful. Also, sad to see the prison stat for pretty much any country vs the USA.

Congrats Bitrise team! I super love your product, and I've really enjoyed using it for my iOS projects!

Totally agreed. The payment bit is the only thing that ever gets people talking about the Apple Watch.

Totally agreed, I learned Ian's secure knot 10 or so years ago, and not only do my shoes never come undone, but I've also taught a whole pile of people it as well!

Why do you spend that long commuting? Are there no closer/remote jobs, or can you not move closer?

Try accessing Siri with something that isn't registered with touchID (like a friend's finger) and this doesn't work. I think the steps have nothing to do with it, and it has more to do with you unlocking the phone with touchID when you summon Siri.

He's also responsible for one of my most favorite twitter bots! https://twitter.com/hard_to_yelp

My main issue with meteor and debugging is that getting into node-inspector inside of a velocity test is seemingly impossible. Any ideas?

Thanks for pointing that out. I was curious where to donate to them as well.

Thanks! We're hopeful ;)

Let us know how they work out for you! We tried to anticipate a lot of the main access control points, but there's probably things we've missed.

Have you considered propanolol? It doesn't pass the blood brain barrier, and side effects are incredibly minimal. Since it sounds like stress agitates your speech, this may be a pretty good option. It's often prescribed for public speaking anxiety, but I'm sure most doctors would prescribe it for investor meetings if you asked.

Feel free to shoot me a mail, email's in profile.
