New Polygon Streaming service from HTC’s VIVERSE makes it effortless to integrate interactive 3D models into workflows

Published

on

 , July 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — VIVERSE, the spatial computing platform by HTC, is launching a new standalone service for its Polygon Streaming technology, making it available outside of VIVERSE for the first time. This empowers organizations to flexibly bring high-fidelity, interactive 3D models into their workflows across a range of devices including smartphones, tablets, laptops/PCs, or XR headsets.

Polygon Streaming combines server-side processing with client-side rendering, significantly reducing bandwidth and processing power requirements. It streams the actual 3D data of an asset, transmitting only the necessary polygon data for the sections of the 3D model the user is looking at, and at the level of detail appropriate to their distance from the object. This device-agnostic approach ensures there’s democratized access for everyone to next-generation immersive graphics and interactivity.

A live example of Polygon Streaming can be seen here.

Joseph Lin, General Manager of VIVERSE, said, “It’s never been easier to develop 3D assets, but sharing them with others has remained a barrier. Polygon Streaming opens up new possibilities for everyone, transforming any device so people can enjoy everything from interactive product showcases, to collaboration and immersive virtual environments.”

Polygon Streaming is perfect for any industry using 3D assets, including media & entertainment, engineering, industrial design, architectural visualization, game development, and e-commerce. In these roles it’s vital to share the 3D models with people who don’t have access to advanced hardware and software. Customers and clients are often reviewing content remotely, and having to look at non-interactive static models through a screenshare or a slide deck, which can’t convey all of the details of a 3D model.

VIVERSE’s Polygon Streaming is a highly optimized rendering method that streams only the necessary polygon data for rendering the visible sections of a 3D asset. This method employs advanced techniques such as occlusion culling and adaptive levels of detail. These techniques significantly reduce rendering resources and bandwidth requirements while maintaining low latency.

Polygon Streaming has seen impressive results in testing*, with:

Up to 8x decrease in load timeUp to 2x increase in average FPSUp to 81% decrease in total project size

Polygon Streaming is versatile. It can be used for an individual object, as well as managing dozens of assets within the same world. This means entire environments can be optimized, maximizing the visual experience for users regardless of the network and device hardware limitations.

The platform intelligently and automatically adjusts based on network and hardware conditions, ensuring high visual fidelity and interactivity. This enables complex 3D assets and scenes to be rendered even on lower-end devices.

Other key features of VIVERSE’s Polygon Streaming include:

Web-based interface: Easily upload, convert, and manage 3D assets through a web console, providing convenient access and monitoring of storage, model, project, and bandwidth usage.Integration with Game Engines: Polygon Streaming assets can be imported into popular game engines such as Unity and Unreal Engine, enhancing the development workflow for game developers.Dynamic versioning: 3D assets can be easily updated at any time, eliminating the need to roll out updates to the applications that stream them.WebXR Compatibility: Full compatibility with WebXR standards ensures that interactive 3D content can be experienced seamlessly in web-based and virtual and augmented reality environments.

Naoto Kato, CEO, Cluster, Inc. said, “Cluster, Inc. is continuously committed to providing the best metaverse experience for our users. We’re excited to integrate VIVERSE’s Polygon Streaming technology into our platform to allow us to deliver highly detailed and immersive environments to our users, regardless of their device capabilities. It will open endless opportunities for our developer community, and our users can experience next-generation virtual worlds with exceptional visual fidelity and interactivity, enriching the experience we provide within the Cluster platform.”

Pricing and availability

VIVERSE Polygon Streaming technology is now available in an early release with flexible pricing options starting from $99 to suit various needs. Additionally, Polygon Streaming technology is already integrated into VIVERSE for Business, the spatial collaboration platform. This integration enables highly detailed 3D assets to be easily brought into spatial environments, enhancing collaboration and visualization in various industries.

VIVERSE Polygon Streaming will be demoed at SIGGRAPH 2024 at booth 615. To sign up for Polygon Streaming, please visit: www.viverse.com/polygon-streaming.

eSign.AI Named Sole Electronic Signature Technology Provider for Hong Kong Government’s CorpID Project, Building the Foundation for Digital Signing Infrastructure in Hong Kong

Published

on

By

HONG KONG, May 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As Hong Kong’s Digital Corporate Identity Platform (CorpID) counts down to its phased launch, eSign.AI has been appointed as the sole electronic signature vendor in the project, responsible for delivering core digital signing capabilities including digital signatures, certificate management, and signature verification services. CorpID is led by Nexify, a seasoned government systems integrator, as the prime contractor. The platform is expected to launch in phases starting late 2026, with multiple CorpID-based e-government services going live in mid-2027.

CorpID: Government-Grade Digital Identity Infrastructure for Hong Kong Enterprises

The Digital Corporate Identity Platform (CorpID) is an enterprise-level digital services platform launched by the Hong Kong SAR Government, developed under the oversight of the Digital Policy Office (DPO). It is designed to serve as the business equivalent of “iAM Smart,” providing a unified digital identity foundation for Hong Kong enterprises. CorpID’s core mission is to build an integrated digital government infrastructure — offering unified identity authentication, digital signing, form pre-filling, and e-licence storage — replacing paper-heavy, cumbersome traditional processes and enabling smart city development through seamless data connectivity.

The platform is open to companies incorporated under the Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622) and businesses registered under the Business Registration Ordinance (Cap. 310), including sole proprietorships and partnerships. The DPO requires all enterprise-related e-government services to support CorpID within 18 months of launch, and will continue expanding ecosystem coverage through sandbox initiatives, cross-industry identity standard interoperability, and fully online registration processes.

eSign.AI: The Digital Signing Engine Behind CorpID

eSign.AI is an AI-native electronic signature and contract automation platform built for enterprises worldwide, offering a complete signing framework from simple electronic signatures to the highest-level compliant digital signatures — meeting diverse regulatory requirements across industries and jurisdictions.

On the identity verification front, eSign.AI has completed integration with iAM Smart, enabling individual identity verification through Hong Kong’s citizen digital identity system, and providing legally valid digital certificate services for both enterprises and individuals.

Looking ahead, the eSign.AI SaaS platform will be deeply integrated with CorpID, providing enterprise and individual identity verification for Hong Kong businesses, and supporting both electronic and digital signing that complies with Hong Kong’s Electronic Transactions Ordinance — connecting the full digital contracting lifecycle for government and enterprise alike.

Getting Ahead of the AI Era: From eSignGlobal to eSign.AI

The electronic signature industry is undergoing a structural shift from “tooling” to “intelligence.” Market data underscores this acceleration: the AI-powered contract analysis tools market has grown from USD 3.32 billion in 2025 to USD 4.3 billion in 2026, at a CAGR of 29.6%. Signing is just one node in the contract lifecycle — document generation, workflow orchestration, compliance tracking, and post-execution management are all being transformed by AI, and the industry window is closing fast.

In April 2026, the company officially rebranded from eSignGlobal to eSign.AI, completing its strategic transformation from an e-signature tool provider to an AI-native contract automation platform. As the company’s spokesperson noted, this rebrand is not cosmetic — it is an acknowledgment of where the product actually is. Customers were already using eSign.AI to automate workflows that go far beyond the signature itself.

eSign Automation Skill was launched alongside the rebrand — an AI-powered signing automation framework for enterprise workflows that enables complete contract signing through natural language interaction, with no manual intervention required. Whether it is single-party approval, multi-party sequential signing, or large-scale parallel execution, an AI Agent can orchestrate the entire workflow in a single call. All signature initiations and status queries return structured JSON outputs, directly parseable by leading large language models and intelligent workflow systems.

eSign Automation is now available in the OpenClaw ecosystem and supports integration via Claude MCP, ChatGPT, and other leading AI platforms.

By combining AI automation capabilities with CorpID’s government-grade digital identity infrastructure, eSign.AI delivers a complete solution for Hong Kong enterprises — from identity verification to intelligent signing to full workflow automation.

About eSign.AI

eSign.AI (formerly eSignGlobal) is an AI-native electronic signature and contract automation platform built for enterprises worldwide. The platform serves over 100 countries and regions, covering core industries including financial services, manufacturing, real estate, human resources, and healthcare — with 1,500+ scenario applications and 3,000+ ecosystem partners. eSign.AI holds ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 27018 certifications and supports major regulatory frameworks including the U.S. ESIGN Act / UETA, EU eIDAS, HIPAA, GDPR, and 21 CFR Part 11. Infrastructure is anchored by independent data centers in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Frankfurt, Germany.

SINGAPORE, May 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The winners of the 2026 German Red Dot Design Award were officially announced. Five of SUNMI Technology’s flagship products won awards: the CPad Business Tablet, CPad PAY, FLEX 3 Interactive Display, the V3 handheld POS Terminal and L3 Industrial PDA. These products stood out with three core design concepts: integration, versatility and human-centricity.

Known as “The Oscars” of global industrial design, the Red Dot Award has strict evaluation criteria covering aesthetics, ergonomics, scenario adaptability and sustainability. SUNMI adheres to original commercial scenario customization, rejecting crudely modified consumer devices. All winning products are originally developed for real commercial scenarios such as cash register, food delivery, industrial inspection and store operations, covering the entire commercial track with high scenario adaptability. Meanwhile, it practices ESG concepts, adopting eco-friendly materials and modular structures to extend equipment service life, reduce consumable consumption, and implement low-carbon and long-term design, which perfectly meets the Red Dot’s sustainability evaluation criteria.

Simplify Complexity: With highly integrated design, SUNMI eliminates the “patchwork feeling” of cluttered devices and tangled cables in traditional commercial scenarios, streamlining store operations and saving space.All-in-One Versatility: Beyond a single tool function, SUNMI’s products achieve flexible transformation through modular and multi-form designs to proactively adapt to changing business needs. The CPad series with modular accessories and FLEX 3’s Lego-style modular design enable multi-scenario application and long-term reuse.Human-Centric Design: Every detail is human-oriented, focusing on real pain points to enhance scenario experience. The L3 Industrial PDA reduces high-frequency work fatigue through scientific weight distribution; the V3 Smart POS Terminal balances large-screen visibility and grip comfort; CPad PAY integrates full-link functions to simplify workflows.

These honors stem from SUNMI’s long-term commitment to a sustainable society, original commercial R&D and ESG. In the future, SUNMI will uphold its core concepts, expand the boundaries of commercial industrial design, and empower global businesses with user-oriented, eco-friendly and high-value products.
