METAVERSE


METAVERSE

The term “metaverse” is a combination of the words “meta,” which means “beyond,” and “verse,” taken from ‘universe’ which refers to all of space, time, and their contents, including planets, stars, galaxies, and all other forms of matter and energy.

According to Facebook, the metaverse is a collection of virtual environments where you can create and explore with people who aren’t in the same physical space as you.

Consider: what if you could play tennis with your family or friends in France at the famous tennis court Stade Roland Garros, which is located in Roland Garros Stadium while sitting at your home in Ethiopia? How cool is it to be able to collaborate instantly with colleagues who are thousands of miles away as if you were physically present? Yes, you are capable of executing them! And because of the virtual space created in a metaverse, all of these scenarios are right at your fingertips. Using your digital avatar, you can interact with people in the digital space. Furthermore, this virtual universe can be accessed via devices such as smartphones or computers. However, to get the complete immersion experience — specific hardware devices like virtual reality headsets, augmented reality glasses, gaming consoles, etc are recommended.

In simple terms, the metaverse is a shared, virtual and immersive futuristic environment that people have access to via the internet.
