VERSES AI (CBOE: VERS) has completed the first phase of a research project with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The project, announced last year, was focused on the cross-platform interoperability between digital twin systems, which is to be used for lunar explorations.
“We are thrilled to be working with JPL to help unlock the potential for multinational cooperation on the moon. The Spatial Web standards, which GENIUS is the first developer toolkit to support, were designed to address the universal problem of transforming any data, not just geometry and geography, into a unified shared model including the rights and rules that govern the relationships between people, places, and things,” commented Capm Petersem, chief innovation officer for VERSES.
The use of digital twin systems for lunar exploration enables engineers on earth to be able to manage the health of systems of the moon, as well as facilitates virtual planning and testing of activities before they are executed remotely on the moon.

One of the more specific challenges of such an operation is the testing of systems across organizations. As a result, the research project with the JPL, which also included the involvement of California State University, Northridge (CSUN), saw VERSES’ tech demonstrated through real-time joint testing. A lander model was located at CSUN’s facilities, while a rover model was located at JPL’s facilities, with the testing occurring on NVIDIA Omniverse platforms via spatial web protocols.
VERSES is also said to have demonstrated the IP protection capabilities it has created, which was conducted by executing a physics-informed neural network model remotely at JPL while testing the model at CSUN’s facilities.
As part of the research project, VERSES, in concert with JPL, worked to model data using spatial web standards with the goal of allowing government agencies, private sector entities, and universities to collaborate in a real-time simulation of the lunar surface.
“As far as we know this marks the first demonstration of interoperability between distributed and disparate Digital Twin systems using the spatial web standard,” commented Michael Wadden, CCO for VERSES.
VERSES AI last traded at $1.06 on the CBOE.
