Three Pillars of Pixelate

Pixelate Protocol is the byproduct of three studies; Pixelate follows the fundamentals of Economics, Computational Photography (how a camera takes a picture) and Distributed Ledger Technologies.

1. Money

Digital dividends are defined as the benefits arising from using digital technologies. Pixelate protocol enables such opportunities for an average smartphone user to participate in a global economy. If photographs are assets then photographers are the labors employed by Pixelate protocol. A digital labor market.

2. Camera

It's in the science of how image sensing devices (cameras) perceive light, camera software work on one simple principle to capture photos. We leverage this common knowledge generated from one camera to teach inferior camera hardware to capture superior quality images. One software many hardware.

3. DAOs

Blockchain as a technology allows us create an autonomous and trustless system for the internet, fueled by photos and cameras. NEAR blockchain protocol allows us to scale our NFT demand. We utilse further more smart contract standards to create DAOs, FTs and Fractal ownership.
