Hello everyone, I have an idea to make a map with fog of war, when you walk you explore new areas and points of interest but you can't see unexplored areas. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, what is your opinion?

There’s a startup in Switzerland working on something similar: https://mapuncover.com/

They also publish papers on it, since it’s a university start up.

I think they don’t have the fog of war feature, but I think it’s interesting! If you are somewhat familiar with the academic space and interested in collaborating with them, you could maybe reach out to them?

why do you need a startup for this?
