To celebrate the 75^th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), the Leisure and Cultural Services Department presents the “Glorious Voyage: Splendid Achievements of the People's Republic of China in Its 75 Years" exhibition series and SenseTime collaborated with the Hong Kong Science Museum to organise the “Era of Intelligence” exhibition. SenseTime will present its innovative artificial intelligence (AI) technology at the exhibition, where it will introduce the “Gravitational Battlefield” experience for the first time in Hong Kong. Based on SenseTime’s immersive experience project “The Three-Body Problem: Beyond Gravity” science fiction (sci-fi) immersive experience, “Gravitational Battlefield” is an innovative and interactive game that integrates AI and mixed reality (MR).

The “Era of Intelligence” exhibition, which opens today, will allow visitors to embark on AI’s rapid advancement journey over the years, and how it is intrinsically interwoven with Chinese culture. Spanning about 3,000 square feet, SenseTime will showcase a range of innovative AI technologies and applications that are integrated into our daily lives.

A key attraction is SenseTime’s ground-breaking immersive MR-powered game "Gravitational Battlefield", which is based on the sci-fi epic “The Three-Body Problem” by Chinese author Liu Cixin, providing visitors with an innovative and interactive experience.

“Gravitational Battlefield” has been well-received when it was launched earlier in mainland China, and the game’s format has been elevated especially for the Hong Kong exhibition. Leveraging both AI and MR technologies, the game can broadcast and generate summaries of players’ performance and rankings in real time. Up to six players can take part as crew members in each game to embark on the mission where the “Gravity” spaceship pursuing the “Blue Space” spaceship. The interstellar contest between the two crews would take players on a trip that blends real world and sci-fi scenarios, allowing them to appreciate the unique appeal where science fiction and technology intersect.
