I have been working in the past with Secondlife and OpenSimulator, and since then I aspired to build a map/virtual world mashup that would be suitable for augmented reality. Lack of time and experience with 3d coding always got in the way. Recently I gave it a try with Claude Opus, Rust, Bevy and Openstreetmap data (overpass/nominatim so far) and was suprised that a google earth style tile map system, 3d buildings and global poi's in the form of layers was not that hard at all with the help of AI. So now I want to build something useful out of it, which also should include social features like avatars, gps rtk, mobile clients, chat & video. Useful feedback is welcome.
