How augmented realities and avatars going to change the world
The metaverse, a concept introduced by Neil Stevenson in his 1992 novel "Snow Crash," is an online world that combines virtual worlds, augmented reality, and the internet. Accessible through computers or other devices, the metaverse offers a new way of experiencing life, bringing computers closer to our senses like eyes, hands, and speech. The metaverse is described as the next chapter in the evolution of the internet, but this time not just a flat screen experience.
Augmented realities and avatars have long been the stuff of science fiction stories. However, there are novels and comics that explore these concepts which may not be too far from becoming a reality. One such concept is the metaverse, a term coined by Neil Stevenson in his 1992 novel "Snow Crash." The metaverse is essentially an online world with its own set of rules and nations. While it may sound like something out of a futuristic cult classic like "Ready Player One" or "Snow Crash," the metaverse is actually on its way and it will revolutionize human interaction as we know it.
The metaverse is essentially a virtual universe that encompasses virtual worlds, augmented reality, and the internet. It's a place that can be accessed through a computer or any other device, where people can interact with each other and explore different worlds. In essence, it's a whole new way of experiencing life. I like to think of it as the next chapter, the next evolution of the internet, but this time it's not just a flat screen experience.
If we think about the internet's evolution, it has gone from being confined to basements, then to our desktops, and eventually to our pockets. Over the past 50 years, computers have become more integrated into our daily lives, and we believe that the next step is to bring it even closer to our senses - our eyes, hands, and even speech. The metaverse is a way of describing this transition into three-dimensional environments.
In the metaverse, there will be various service companies operating different systems with their own set of rules. Some will be more open-ended, while others may have stricter guidelines for safety and integrity. Just like how we have rating systems for films and music, there will likely be a similar system in place for the metaverse.
So, get ready for the metaverse, because it's coming. It's going to change the way we interact with each other and the world around us. It's an exciting new frontier that will bring us closer to a truly immersive and multi-dimensional online experience.
