In 2021, Roblox, known as the "first stock of the Metaverse", was successfully listed and Facebook changed its name to Meta, which made the "Metaverse" really lively.In addition to the exploration of the underlying technical architecture of virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality such as AR, VR, MR, and XR, the rapid development of technologies such as cloud computing, 5G, artificial intelligence, NFT, and Web3.0 has also changed the realization of the Metaverse. more clearly.
What changes will the metaverse bring to the world?
Speaking of the original form of the Metaverse now, it is natural to think of a phenomenal mobile game, "Pokemon GO" developed by Niantic and released in 2016. The streets are full of people catching Pokémon with their mobile phones, and people are immersed in the interactive space. This is an AR experience based on the mobile phone. When it is replaced with a lighter device such as glasses, many scenarios and applications will be subverted. Maybe it will be more ambitious and interesting, so a group of AR smart glasses manufacturers quickly staking the field, hoping to seize the opportunity.
In other respects, digital virtual humans, digital collections, etc. are all in hot development under the attention of capital.Xiang Wenjie, co-founder of Hangzhou Lingban Technology, said: "The core of the development of Metaverse is the change of human interaction concept, just like from the interaction of computer keyboard and mouse to the gesture plane interaction of mobile phone, the interaction method of Metaverse will be space. The interaction will be the next-generation computing center. Although it is still a niche, just like adapting to mobile phones, given time, everyone will become more accustomed to doing more things on such a platform.”Without the mobile Internet, it is difficult for everyone to imagine the birth of WeChat. The metaverse and mobile Internet are concepts of the same level and are also key to opening the door to the future world. Therefore, when the technical foundation is completed, various applications will be incubated, and the future will be beyond imagination. Looking at the future with the key in hand, there is no doubt that the metaverse will develop faster and faster like a snowball in the future.
The metaverse is rapidly fissioning, from the consumer side to the industrial side
A recent study by Gartner Research predicts that by 2026, nearly a quarter of internet users will spend at least an hour a day working, shopping, learning, socializing and entertaining in digital virtual worlds.Liu Xiheng, vice president of Huawei's optical product line, said, "The initiation of the Metaverse is an application for the future personal, family, entertainment, and gaming fields. In future industrial scenarios, perhaps the digital twin of the To B scenario may be more demanding for the Metaverse. Faster. In the To B field, the metaverse may enter the commercial scene sooner.”Just as the Internet has moved from the consumer Internet in the first half to the industrial Internet in the second half, the slight difference is that the industrial Internet is based on the further fermentation of technology after the consumer Internet market is relatively mature, and the perspective turns to traditional enterprises and the real economy.However, driven by the Industrial Internet, more and more traditional enterprises have also tasted the sweetness brought by new technologies. Therefore, most enterprises are also actively accepting and trying to embrace the industrial metaverse. It has laid a solid foundation for the development of the metaverse from the first application scenario game field to the industrial metaverse. "We used to talk about MR and AR, and most companies were very resistant, but after the concept of the industrial metaverse was proposed, they quickly accepted it because it was easier to understand and adapt." Xiang Wenjie said.
