Niantic has added a new product to the Niantic ecosystem: Scaniverse!

Using a technology called "Gaussian splatting" you are able to create high quality 3D scans of objects in just a few minutes which you can then download, share or contribute to Niantic Lightship. Contributions to Lightship will then be used for VPS, which in turn is used for Overclock in Ingress! You can also browse a map of both Wayspots and other places that have scans submitted to them and view their public 3D model.

Scans captured via Gaussian splatting are generally of higher quality than those taken via Ingress, Pokemon GO or other Niantic apps. If you are trying to activate Overclock for a Portal it might make sense to scan it via Scaniverse instead.

You can see an example scan using Gaussian splatting by our outside correspondent here: https://scaniverse.com/scan/eqxoovukmtmpj3cm. It took about 2 minutes of scanning to achieve this result.

To contribute and view the map you'll need to log in with your Niantic Account. While not required it is recommended to use the same Niantic Account used for Ingress or other games as future feature might link them together, such as a list of scans submitted through Ingress (as an example, this is not a confirmed feature). At the moment, no cross-app features exist, so you will not receive credit for the Scout or Scout Controller badge for scans taken in Scaniverse.

Please note that these features are currently only available on the iOS version of Scaniverse. While Android users can also scan places using Gaussian splats, they cannot upload them to Wayspots, browse the map of scans or log in with their Niantic Account yet. Niantic is working on the update for Android.

You can download Scaniverse here: https://scaniverse.com/getapp

Agents are reporting a change of the Daily Assignments for new Agents.

New Agents are presented with new tasks and rewards that are aimed at helping them learn the game and advance to higher levels. Among the changes are new Rewards like AP and Apex, easier versions of existing Bounties as well as completly new Bounties like visiting an all time unique Portal.

It is currently unknown at which level range these tasks are awarded or if they appear for Recursed Agents as well. We assume that these tasks will be assigned to non-recursed Agents under L8, however we cannot confirm this theory. Let us know if you find other tasks, rewards or information!

Today is Anomaly Day!
More specifically, today the winner of the Shared Memories Anomaly Series will be decided in the last two events of the series!

In a little more than 7 hours, at 5:00 UTC, the Japanese city of Hakodate will host the first battle of the day. 16 hours later, at 21:00 UTC, it will be Seattle's turn, in the state of Washington, USA!

Only 148.2 points separate the two Factions: the Resistance hoping to hold on to or, better yet, extend their lead, the Enlightened trying to catch up and overtake on the last stretch!

We are ready for an action-packed day, and we'll be here to witness it with you!

Give it your all, Agents! It's go time!

@IUENG

🇯🇵 The Hakodate, Japan Anomaly is currently on!

We are expecting the scores to be published shortly after 8:00 UTC. In the meantime, here's an Intel link to check out the view from above!

Good luck, Agents!

In videos of the After Party that we received from our members, we were able to see Brian Rose, the producer of Ingress, taking the stage at the After Party for the Hakodate Anomaly to deliver some remarks about the state of the game. Here's a summary of what he covered:

Brian introduced the Dispatch system as a training hub for new Ingress Agents as a crucial way for onboarding new players, helping them grasp core mechanics, and offering more structured guidance as they navigate the game. For veteran agents, Dispatch will offer valuable tasks with significant rewards.

Brian emphasized that Ingress's future revolves around its dedicated community. He encouraged all Agents, both current and returning, to foster a sense of inclusion and camaraderie. He asked the community to warmly welcome new players and make efforts to bring back those who have been away from the game.

Brian assured the audience that Anomalies and Global Challenges will continue to be a staple of the game, so we can expect to see more of them as we go forward.

Brian also mentioned that new game mechanics and features that are being worked on will be tested through Field Tests. These are designed to experiment with potential updates before they are officially implemented into the core game, just like the one we recently experienced revolving around the Dispatch system.

Thanks @geozukunft for the help!
