An interactive 3D globe powered by Gemini, which I built solo for Google AI Riser Vietnam 2026 and made the Top 500 out of 9,000+ entries. 196 countries, search, continent filters, population and disaster map modes.

Real numbers
Mochi asks
-
Mochi: What is Globe AI?
Kha: A 3D globe you can spin. Spatial data is processed by Gemini and shown right on the map. The corner says “Powered by Gemini and Kinh Kha”.
-
Mochi: What is inside?
Kha: 196 countries, a search box, continent filters, a My Passport section, and two map modes: population and disasters.
-
Mochi: The night before the demo?
Kha: I stayed up until 3am fixing 3D map rendering bugs and syncing data from the API. Working solo means nobody else to blame.
-
Mochi: And then?
Kha: The last line of code worked with exactly 30 minutes left before the deadline. I submitted on time, then made the Top 500 out of 9,000+ entries. I still remember those 30 minutes.
-
Mochi: Does anyone actually use it?
Kha: Yes. Over 30 days, Vercel Analytics counted 153 visitors and 214 page views. Real-user speed scored 95/100 (Real Experience Score), with the main content showing in about 1.2 seconds. Screenshots of the numbers are right above.
