An Interactive Journey Through Lucid Dreams
Latens uses AI-generated images as the frames of an interactive movie. This opens the door to endless possibilities, allowing the user to immerse themselves in an interactive, dynamic, and fully customizable experience.
Latens is the first 'lucid dream simulator'.
Walk Inside your AI’s Dreams
Latens does not use real-time AI generations as a 'filter' on top of user inputs.
Latens instead allows you to walk inside the AI’s dreams. Simply write what you want it to dream, and use your keyboard to control the camera.
Generating Frames, Not Assets
Each generated image is built from the previous one, with small real-time variations, such as zoom or camera movements. This creates the sensation of navigating through a movie that unfolds and adapts to your will.
“Every single pixel will be generated soon.
Not rendered: generated”
— Jensen Huang, CEO, NVidia
"Latent" as a Concept
"Latens" comes from Latin and means "latent" or "lie hidden". This word evokes the idea of something that is present but not visible or manifest, something that has a potential or a reality that has not yet been revealed.
In this context, Latens can be interpreted as the artistic representation of the "Latent Space" itself, an entropic canvas where all existing possibilities and realities await to be manifested.
Future and Evolution of Latens
Latens provides a peek into a future where AI dreams, in real-time, every frame of every show we watch and every game we play.
A future where every moment in the media we consume is unique to our taste and choices.
As Latens evolves, it will explore expanding access to mobile and VR users, as well as fleshing out interactivity through adventures and minigames
