AI is getting better at understanding the digital world, but understanding the physical world requires something different: real-world data. And collecting that data at scale is a challenge. This is where @vangrid_io caught my attention. Vangrid is building a contributor-powered spatial data network where people can respond to real-world data requests using their smartphones. Those captures can then be processed into useful datasets for Physical AI applications. There's also an identity layer to keep contributors involved. Vangrid Agents are soulbound identities that boost the points earned from captures, and the collection is now live on OpenSea. What's particularly interesting is that this isn't just an idea waiting for adoption. Vangrid already has live web and Android apps, with real captures and USDC settlements taking place. The opportunity here goes beyond collecting points or owning an Agent. It's about becoming part of the infrastructure that helps machines understand the world we live in. Your surroundings could be more valuable to AI than you realise. 👀 Agent mint: [https://t.co/RUSFytwRtr…](https://t.co/1Zl2CM2Y7T) Explore captures: [https://t.co/JpMrOGfhZv](https://t.co/tkaYw74UCH) @vangrid_io
