The metaverse is a virtual world that is similar to the Internet. Most content online is accessed as a device. Cookies and behavioral metrics are used to track how many users visit websites and what they do within the sites. Users of the metaverse would “live” within the virtual worlds. There are many different types of metaverses and some people have their own theories on what each of these virtual worlds should look like. Some people are already playing these games, such as Roblox.
In addition to virtual reality, the metaverse will also enable augmented reality, which will allow users to view metaverse content on their devices. This new technology will make it possible to access virtual spaces from anywhere, making them accessible to everyone, regardless of their location. Because of these benefits, the metaverse has enormous potential for transforming the way people access social media, work, and browse the internet. But before you get too excited about this new technology, here’s a look at how it could change the way we live and work in the near future.
Epic Games, the company behind Fortnite, is investing in building the Metaverse. The company has even hosted concerts featuring Ariana Grande and Travis Scott in its virtual world. It has also reimagined Martin Luther King’s famous “I have a dream” speech. And in the future, these companies will be working on photorealistic digital humans, and creating a metahuman creator that would let users create their own avatars. With the support of large tech companies, these companies could be on the verge of becoming the next Facebook.
