Meta Verse is a way of connecting with the digital world, it uses technologies like AR and VR. It is a 3D experience that may be live or recorded earlier. It allows us to be present in a place digitally and virtually. It simply works like the conferencing software. We just have to wear the VR and experience a live show, which will be clear.
The next platform & medium will be even more immersive and embodied on internet where you’re in the experience, not just looking at it. We call this the metaverse, said, Mark Zuckerberg.
How does Meta Verse work?
Neal Stephenson is a writer and Snow Crash is such a novel that first germinates the term Meta Verse. This novel shows the virtual world and the amazing Metaverse world. We come to know about the 3D space from this novel. It uses technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), Cryptocurrencies, Social Media, and online gaming. It is a sense of living the concept of the physical world. Nowadays, (due to pandemic) elders and people who can’t visit a far wedding enjoy it via. Meta verse. In short, Metaverse technologies help us to be present in a show without being physically present.
In a blog written by Matthew Ball, he said, The Metaverse is a massively scaled and interoperable network of real-time rendered 3D virtual worlds which can be experienced synchronously and persistently by an effectively unlimited number of users with an individual sense of presence, and with continuity of data, such as identity, history, entitlements, objects, communications, and payments.
