Datavault AI has announced a collaboration with Riflessi, a premium Fifth Avenue retail destination in New York City, to deploy the company's DVHOLO holographic display platform and ADIO spatial audio technology beginning in February 2026. The partnership represents a significant advancement in retail media technologies, enabling luxury fashion and lifestyle brands to sponsor immersive holographic and spatial audio experiences within high-value physical retail environments.
The collaboration is designed to support brand storytelling, pre-sale initiatives, and measurable consumer engagement while generating new revenue opportunities through Datavault AI's data experience, valuation, and monetization framework. This integration of advanced technologies into physical retail spaces addresses the growing demand for experiential shopping while providing brands with new methods to connect with consumers.
Datavault AI's technology suite, which includes the Information Data Exchange enabling Digital Twins and licensing of name, image, and likeness by securely attaching physical real-world objects to immutable metadata objects, provides a comprehensive solution for experiential data perception, valuation and secure monetization. The company's cloud-based platform serves multiple industries, including HPC software licensing for sports & entertainment, events & venues, biotech, education, fintech, real estate, healthcare, energy and more.
The deployment at Riflessi represents a practical application of Datavault AI's Acoustic Science Division technologies, which feature WiSA, ADIO and Sumerian patented technologies and industry-first foundational spatial and multichannel wireless HD sound transmission technologies with IP covering audio timing, synchronization and multi-channel interference cancellation. These technologies work in concert with the company's Data Science Division, which leverages the power of Web 3.0 and high-performance computing.
For the retail industry, this collaboration signals a shift toward more integrated physical-digital experiences that can enhance consumer engagement while providing brands with valuable data insights. The technology's ability to foster responsible AI with integrity through secure metadata attachment offers potential applications beyond retail, including in sectors where digital representation of physical assets is valuable.

The implementation of these immersive technologies in a high-profile retail location like Riflessi on Fifth Avenue provides a test case for how luxury retail environments can evolve to incorporate advanced digital experiences. This development comes as retailers increasingly seek ways to differentiate physical stores from online shopping while providing brands with measurable engagement metrics. The technology's customization capabilities, including AI and Machine Learning automation, third-party integration, detailed analytics and data, marketing automation and advertising monitoring, offer flexibility for different brand requirements and retail scenarios.
