What is Metaverse?

The Metaverse is a term used to describe a hypothetical future version of the internet that is a fully immersive, shared virtual space where people can interact with a computer-generated environment and each other in real-time. It is often compared to the science fiction concept of a virtual reality or cyberspace, but with the added dimension of social interaction and collaboration.

In the metaverse, people would use virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology to interact with a digital world that is designed to look and feel like the physical world.
