👋 PixelStix is a new platform for adding videos to physical objects and public spaces. This technology will enhance personal items for millions of consumers. Businesses are also enhancing their existing products and apps by using the PixelStix API.
👋 Hey, product hunt family!
@lanemwalker and I met through South FL Product Hunt, where I found out what he is currently working on. PixelStix is an easy way of learning through physical media; it's so awesome. As makers, we always learn from what we build, but during the time we are creating it. I am excited to see the creatives you guys can do with PixelStix. 🎭
Thank you for taking the time to leave Matthew feedback; he is incredibly open to your comments! Have a great day. 🔥🔥🔥
Hey Product Hunt 👋
Thank you for checking out PixelStix from the creators! @pixelstixjames and I will be helping everyone out with questions about the PixelStix technology and business model.
We created a technology, called PixelStix, that allows you to upload videos into almost anything. There are 3 main categories of how we are seeing this being used by customers, businesses and the larger arts world.
1. Personal Items. Videos can be uploaded into anything that can be physically touched. Over the years we've seen people personalize a ton of personal objects with videos, e.g. greeting cards, picture frames, yearbooks, journals, scrapbooks and the list goes on and on.
2. Existing products. The PixelStix app is built on the PixelStix API which allows businesses with existing products to make their products 'smarter' by adding this technology to their app. The latest company to do this is called PeelGood (peelgoodwalls.com) and they are creating an entire line of 'Digitally Infused Lifestyle Goods' with this technology aka the Target of passive IOT!
3. Mural Arts Movement. Muralists throughout the United States are using this technology to upload their stories into the murals they create. After uploading videos into the physical wall, they use the !PixelStix Maps to show you where each PixelStix lives, which gives art lovers a map of how to find their work. We think this is one of the coolest things and love supporting this community of artists!

@mrgregzen I would happily encourage "out of hand" as long as it's not anything harmful!
We do reserve the right and have the ability to deal with abuse of the platform, though.
Just wanted to add - the capability of PixelStix goes far beyond uploading videos to physical objects.
We are infusing the world around us with digital ability - some people refer to this space as the "metaverse".
Digital content can be anything from a secret / exclusive / non-public video to a step in a nationwide scavenger hunt for unreleased music. Whether you want your PixelStix-embedded hat to trigger an API call that will feed your cats, or you want to add a video of you painting your art directly to your signature on the piece, we've got you covered.
A more heady example - your luxury jacket in real life could unlock that same jacket for your character in a game - and only people who own that jacket have access to it in-game. That same jacket could also be an access-point in real life, to interact with the in-game world. Maybe wearing it out today to a specific public space will credit you in-game for promoting that brand. PixelStix has the ability to facilitate that.
There is a scripting language in the works called "PixelScripts" which will extend the capabilities far beyond anything we ourselves dream up.
Your imagination is your limit.
