As you can see, the metaverse will be quite different from today's restrictive virtual reality experiences. Unlike today's virtual reality, the metaverse will be a massive shared virtual space that combines virtual reality and augmented reality, allowing avatars to seamlessly transition between virtual spaces on the platform, where hundreds of millions of participants can simultaneously engage and physically interact in three dimensions.
People can perform many actions in this virtual universe that they can do in reality; They can do studies, get education, get a job, shop, do sports, play games, watch or read something, socialize by participating in various events, create their own adventures and worlds, and participate in fictional universes such as Star Wars. To give a simple example, people living in different parts of the world can come together and have fun or work on projects together in this virtual universe that hosts various virtual worlds. Unlike the Internet, the metaverse allows people to have three-dimensional physical interaction with each other in a virtual universe. With the Metaverse, people can physically interact with each other whenever they want, as if they were in the same place, even though they are far away.
So metaverse; It is a spatial internet that can be experienced three-dimensionally with new connections, devices and technologies at any place and time. Metaverse can also be expressed as experiencing a game in three dimensions, without the need for devices such as screens and keyboards. For example, imagine going inside three-dimensional video games like Minecraft, Roblox, PUBG, and Fortnite and being able to physically experience that virtual world as if it were real. Simply put, the metaverse is an evolved internet in which you exist rather than look.
Metaverse Can Make Sense of Modern Technologies!
As you can see, the metaverse will bring together new technologies that have risen recently and add meaning to them: For example, cryptocurrencies can be the basis of the economy in this virtual universe. Similarly, you'll want to adorn your avatar in the virtual world the same way you adorn yourself in real life. This would be a great use case for NFTs! Just as in the real world, we buy make-up, modify our cars, do our hair, buy the latest phone or clothes and express ourselves in that way; We will try to reflect ourselves in the best way possible in the metaverse, which will include everyone we know and don't know. As we become dependent on the Metaverse, what we have there will be as important and valuable as what we have in real life; Because as the simulation power increases, we will have difficulty distinguishing that digital universe from reality. NFT will guarantee that what we buy in this virtual world belongs to us.
Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) will be the main technologies of great importance in realizing the metaverse. With the help of augmented reality technologies, which are slightly different from virtual reality, people can see a lot of information about that city pass before their eyes through AR-supported virtual glasses while traveling in a city. This may include traffic and pollution data, a variety of information about the natural environment or local history. If you cannot fully imagine what augmented reality (AR) technology looks like, we recommend you watch the video below starting from the 2nd minute.
Metaverse is not just AR; It refers to a much more comprehensive technology that will include various virtual technologies, especially VR. The Metaverse can be quite similar to many online video games popular today. People around the world; You can interact in a virtual universe with virtual environments similar to PUBG, Roblox, Minecraft and Fortnite.
The metaverse may have great importance not only as a technological product, but also in a more philosophical sense. If the arguments we explain in our Simulation Theory video, which you can watch below, are true, creating a digital version of the universe may be the destiny of our species: Species that find themselves somewhere in the middle of existence will want to simulate their past and future, and even their own universe. The construction of the metaverse may be the first big step we take on the path to what we explained in this video.
