2020 Vision Charter

Manifesto

Humanity has given machines power, but not perception.

We taught them to calculate, to follow rules, to move, yet they remain blind.

At 2020, we believe sight is the beginning of understanding.

We are building a living, ever-updating map of Earth, woven from billions of points of light.

A sensory layer for our planet. A shared nervous system for humanity and the machines that serve it.

With it, streets grow safer. Cities respond to disaster before chaos spreads. The blind walk with confidence. Memories are preserved as vividly as the day they were lived.

And robots, drones, and prosthetics move through the world not as strangers but as participants in our shared reality.

This is more than autonomy. It is resilience. It is inclusion. It is memory. It is imagination made concrete.

We are not just building tools. We are building the atlas of existence, a foundation for generations to come.

2020 is our moonshot: to give Earth, and all who inhabit it, the gift of shared vision.

Open Perception

Where it is safe and ethical, we lean toward transparency and shared infrastructure standards.

Human Oversight

Every autonomous system built on 2020 includes clear audit trails, human fail-safes, and graceful degradation paths.

Civic Impact

We invest in public-sector pilots—disaster response, accessibility, cultural preservation—because shared vision must serve everyone.
