Orbify: Redefining Navigation with Curved Mapping

Orbify is introducing a revolutionary approach to turn-by-turn directions, utilizing an "Inception-style" curved map interface to transform how we perceive spatial guidance.

"Navigation Reimagined."

🛠 Technical Specifications & Engine

The platform leverages a proprietary warping mechanism and high-performance 3D graphics to achieve its unique visual style.

Current BuildDemo 2 - v72
Legacy BuildDemo 1 - v38

The curvature of the map can be conceptually represented by a warping function: Orbify Warp≈∫startendcurvature(s) ds\text{Orbify Warp} \approx \int_{start}^{end} \text{curvature}(s) \, dsOrbify Warp≈∫startend​curvature(s)ds

🎮 User Interface & Controls

To navigate the v72 environment, users can employ the following inputs:

  • Movement: Use the W, A, S, and D keys.
  • Panning: Perform a Left-click and drag.
  • Rotation: Perform a Right-click and drag.
