What are Backgrounds?

  • Backgrounds are the foundation of the Portals.
  • They can be 360 images or videos. These can be 360 images or videos taken with 360 cameras or 360 image stitching apps.
  • If users don’t have a 360 camera, they can use the AI that is built into the Teleport Ecosystem to create a background with text prompts.

How to Monetize?

  • Assets: Any images or 3D objects uploaded by users to use in the Portals can be set to public or private.
    • Toggle "Show in Gallery” to allow other users to access and use your asset.
    • Toggle Usage Fee on to charge users for use of your asset.
  • Portals: any backgrounds uploaded or created by users can be remixed.
    • Portal creators can allow other users to remix their Portals for free or for a fee.
    • Price (PORT) can be set after toggling remix to be “allowed” or not.
