Metaverse
The metaverse is a collective virtual space that is created by the convergence of virtually enhanced physical reality and physically persistent virtual reality. It encompasses immersive digital environments, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and the internet, allowing users to interact with a computer-generated environment and other users in real-time. The metaverse enables experiences that include social interaction, gaming, commerce, and entertainment, and is characterized by user-generated content, interconnected virtual economies, and persistent digital identities. The concept suggests a seamless integration of digital experiences into daily life, where boundaries between the physical and digital worlds blur, promoting new forms of interaction and participation in various aspects of society.
