1/n Today we’re opening preorders for Roc Camera (beta):  

A camera that can take verifiably real moments in the age of AI  

🧵 A thread on https://roc.camera/ from @faust

2/ Photography used to capture very real moments

There was a time when taking photos felt magical. A moment frozen in time. It gave people something extraordinary: a tangible memory, a reflection of reality. More than just a picture; a snapshot of a history, a place. It was meaningful, rare, real

creating and destroying; built flying cars & autonomous vehicles, now building /faust, more here: /july, web: july.rocks

3/ AI has blurred the lines of what is real

Smartphones, tablets, and social media have made photos instantly sharable. On top of that, generative AI has blurred the line between what is real and what is imagined, its really hard these days I feel like to distinguish between the two

4/ You know, that’s why we built Roc Camera

We wanted to build a camera that takes verifiably real photos in an age where the veracity and trust of digital media have eroded

Roc camera captures verifiably real moments using sensor attestations, client side zero-knowledge proofs, and TEEs - to bring back legitimacy

5/ Verifiably real moments

Reminds me of JMW Turner. In a world where digital uncertainty is rampant, perhaps grounding ourselves in reality is how we pave the path to the future. 

The hope is that Roc Camera gives us a way to navigate the digital world, like how explorers of old used stars to navigate the vast seas
