HONORING THE FALLEN

The Los Angeles 4.0 Fallen Heroes campaign gives our community a powerful way to honor the brave men and women who served our country by bringing their stories to life through immersive VR worlds and real-world-enhancing AR campaigns. Supporters like you help us create vivid digital memorials that place people inside moments of courage, service, and sacrifice. These experiences strengthen our connection to those who stood for something larger than themselves and make their legacy accessible to every generation.


Your support helps us build a living memorial across San Diego, where families, students, and visitors can walk through AR story trails on Main Street and step into fully immersive VR scenes that preserve the memories of local heroes. Together, we are making sure their service is never forgotten. We are turning remembrance into an active experience that inspires gratitude, unity, and purpose across our city.

250 YEARS OF DEFENDING FREEDOM

THEY PAID THE PRICE FOR THE FUTURE OF SAN DIEGO

Los Angeles has always moved forward because brave men and women were willing to give everything for their hometown's future. The Fallen Heroes campaign exists to honor those who paid the ultimate sacrifice so Main Street can keep leading our region forward. Their courage created the space for our progress, our families, and our communities. When a city finally slows down to recognize them, it reminds everyone that our future was built on real cost and absolute devotion. This campaign makes sure their names, stories, and service stay at the center of San Diego's next chapter.


The power of this work is simple. Instead of remembering our heroes only once a year, we bring their stories home with immersive VR Worlds and AR campaigns made for their own neighborhoods. People can step inside a digital reenactment of their service or see a hero’s legacy appear above a landmark that shaped their life. It reconnects the community with the people who protected it and shows families that San Diego remembers what our heroes stood for. 


Supporting this campaign helps Los Angeles keep its promise. We honor the fallen, uplift their families, and teach the next generation what real service looks like. This community project is how a Main Street Smart City stays grounded in gratitude while moving forward with purpose. Your support strengthens the bridge between sacrifice and progress and ensures Los Angeles carries these stories into the future with accuracy, dignity, and respect.

IMMERSIVE VIRTUAL REALITY (VR) MEMORIALS IN VIRTUAL REALITY

VIRTUAL REALITY MEMORIALS

The Los Angeles 4.0 Fallen Heroes campaign creates a living memorial inside a VR World that brings local stories of service into the center of community life. Supporters help build an experience that gives every resident a direct and personal connection to the men and women who stood for something larger than themselves. The journey begins with memorial banners of local heroes, each one designed to stand tall in the VR space so visitors can see their names, faces, and contributions to our region. It turns remembrance into something active, visible, and present.


The next part of the VR World features videos recorded by family members, friends, or elected officials. These messages speak with emotion, gratitude, and community pride. Each video allows future generations to learn firsthand from those who witnessed the impact of these heroes. 


The final layer adds interesting historical facts about the wars that have shaped Los Angeles’s long-standing role in national defense. Visitors receive clear guidance, strong context, and memorable learning moments. Your support ensures this project blends honor, education, and connection.

MEET THE OFFICIAL LOS ANGELES SMART CITIES HISTORY TOUR GUIGE BREEZY AI

MEET BREEZY AI

As the visitor steps into the Virtual Reality World, a quiet hum of history surrounds them — a living memorial where innovation and courage intertwine. The experience opens in the late 1800s, when San Diego’s Black pioneers helped shape the region’s emerging industries. Allen Light (1870), one of the city’s earliest African American settlers and a skilled seafarer, is remembered for his work in maritime navigation and early coastal trade — foundations that helped connect frontier San Diego to wider commerce. Nearby, George Ramsey (1895), a blacksmith and craftsman, stands beside a recreated workshop, his legacy symbolizing the role of Black artisans who built the region’s early transportation and agricultural tools.

The scene shifts to the mid-20th century, where modern progress takes form. Dr. Carrol Waymon (1964), a sociologist and community innovator, is honored for advancing fair employment practices and educational access during San Diego’s rapid postwar growth. Beside him stands William E. Payne (1971), an engineer at General Dynamics, whose contributions in aerospace design during the Third Industrial Revolution represent the rise of Black excellence in science. In this immersive memorial, their stories echo across time — from hand-forged tools to computer-aided blueprints — reminding each visitor that innovation is not just invention, but perseverance turned into progress.
