Build Day with Live Models | Visko x Google x Reactor
Our fireside chat with Google at LA Tech Week ended. The conversation didn’t.
Builders from film, games, healthcare, and robotics kept asking us the same thing: what can I actually make with this? The best answer is to hand you the keys. So Orbis is coming back to LA for a build day.
For one day, 100 builders get hands-on access to Orbis, Visko’s real-time video world model, with our research and engineering teams right there in the room. Bring an idea, find your people, and prototype what happens when video stops being a finished clip and becomes a world that runs, reacts, and evolves. Film and TV, games, music, retail, education, robotics, or a category nobody has named yet. Show up with a product concept, a bold technical experiment, or pure curiosity, and leave with something that didn’t exist that morning.
Come build the future of video. Live.
What you’ll get
