What have you been up to in the meta world?

The metauniverse received a lot of attention in 2021, and many large companies have launched a 'flower cake' for investors. Examples include Meta's "All In One", Nvidia's Meta Universe infrastructure layout, and Tencent's Meta Universe buying strategy. Domestic and foreign giants have an impact layout. But what special scenes have been used in the metaverse in modern life? Is the meta-world real?

Yuan Cosmos Wedding

On December 9, 2021, an American couple (Tracy and Dave Gagnon) celebrated a meta-universal wedding, valued at around $ 30,000 (around 200,000 yuan).

In the meta-world, you can find all the details you want more of: flowers, dresses, music and more, even in Vienna, Bali, British castles and elsewhere. Before the wedding, a short wedding invitation video was posted to show the wedding titled “Wedding of the Metaverse Century”.

The wedding took place on Virbela's virtual platform. Virbela is a company focused on providing a virtual environment for work, study and leisure.

During the wedding, Traci took his girlfriend by the hand and walked slowly down the aisle while Dave Gagnon took Traci by the hand. And there were two handsome 7 year old boys, one with a ring and the other with a basket of flowers, walking between a few. Then the two wear the rings to each other and complete their routines.

In that sense, some people think marriage in the meta-world doesn't make sense, while others think it makes sense. Whether Wonwoo's wedding is meaningful to the newlyweds is a theory. However, it is undeniable that our lives are now starting to be virtualized. In order to get married in the meta world, new couples don't have to think about many goals or non-goals. Additionally, fantastic themes or shots that cannot be seen in the real world can be added to the meta-world (like Space Weddings). Finally, the marriage of the metacosm will save the world's resources.

On November 25, 2021, 4.87 square meters of digital land was sold for a value of US $ 2.43 million (approximately 15.52 million yuan) on the virtual virtual platform Decentraland.

Decentraland is a distributed virtual reality platform developed by the Ethereum blockchain that allows users to chat, play and trade. Decentraland is also a virtual city with multiple virtual landscapes, where users can create all kinds of virtual landscapes and create their own virtual spaces such as shops, offices and theaters.

Previously, the platform's highest operating data was $ 913,000 (about 5.81 million yuan). What makes people skeptical is that the selling price of land in Decentraland is actually higher than the average price per single person in Manhattan, USA, and even higher than the average price per person for families living in other United jurisdictions. State and even in San Francisco. .

The buyer is Tokens.com, a digital investment group. The land for sale is at the heart of Fashion Street Estate, which buyer Tokens.com says will be used to develop the digital fashion industry.

Popular Chinese singer Lin Junjie also spent $ 123,000 (about RMB 783,000) for three bedroom suites in Decentraland. Lin Junjie revealed the location of the house he bought on his Twitter account. The photo posted on Twitter is of a virtual house he bought.

In fact, Decentraland can be seen as a new country. As the number of Decentraland users increases, everyone will be working here, increasing demand and traffic. As in the real world, the closer you are to the city center, the more services you have available and the more the cost of this product increases.

At Decentraland, you can create whatever you want in the field. It could be a store, a house, or any other object. Indeed, JJ Lin can set up an art gallery in his region to exhibit his music or other works so that each passer-by can see his work. Or you can set up a ground meeting, where every passerby can hear their concert, or pay a fee to access their concert online.

In addition to selling real estate, Decentraland also sells real estate to Decentraland. Because of the unique products that are Decentraland's design, price and marketing space.

international education

On May 16, 2020, Mark Fisher, vice president of the University of California at Berkeley, spoke at a virtual graduation ceremony: To send new graduates, meta-graduates -The world has developed over 100 school buildings, including school buildings and small shops.

Stanford University, a world famous university, has recently started to study meta-worlds to adapt and change with the changing times. The class number for this class is COMM166 / 266. In this class, students can take courses remotely while wearing a VR headset, whether in a hotel or anywhere in the world. When a class has around 300 people, they appear simultaneously in the same virtual classroom.

It will be the world's first full VR class. Jeremy Bailenson, communications specialist at Stanford University, said in this class that students sometimes don't play virtual reality. In fact, VR will be the basis of our lessons. I never had hundreds of students settled in, and within months they were roaming the virtual space with VR headsets together. According to Professor Jeremy Bailenson, in virtual reality this has never happened before in the history of education. Other schools will have classes with 10 or more VR users. These classes will have hundreds of students and will spend more than half of their time in VR. In this course, we'll push the boundaries of the VR experience.

Professor Jeremy Bailenson

Professor Jeremy Bailenson is also the founder and director of the Virtual Human Interaction Lab at Stanford.

In this classroom, the students' place of residence in the classroom may be a virtual museum, an actual event, or one of the least visited places in the world, such as volcanoes and underwater rocks.

virtual museum

Professor Jeremy Bailenson once said that the long-term goal of this course is to bring students into virtual reality as quickly and deeply as possible. The key to the future era of the metaverse, communication tools and people. For VR technology, in Professor Jeremy Bailenson's opinion, today will be an important time to determine the direction of technology in the years to come. By enabling Stanford University students to understand, recognize, and experience VR technology at critical times, they can continue to innovate in Silicon Valley and use VR technology to support the development of technology.

There seems to be an increase in meta edge learning, and there are real examples. However, learning the meta-world is still difficult. First of all, many of the projects that portray the meta world are just educational events that use virtual reality, not meta-edge learning. For example, how the two real world worlds and the meta world interact and how to create the meta world outcome in the real world is defined. The second is how to create and maintain a healthy metaspace learning ecosystem when each student is the creator. Offline schools now appear to have their own ecosystems (eg stores, grocery stores, etc.). Learning must prevail.

However, meta-globalization has also been beneficial. For example, high-tech devices simulate a real learning environment like the Amazon rainforest, allowing students to become more informed and productive. Or, students can travel to some of the most dangerous and beautiful places in the world without leaving their homes, whether deep in the Mariana Trench or atop Mount Everest, the very hot Sahara Desert or frigid Antarctic. Large crowds in a large city or region. With the latest technology and gadgets, it can trick the brain, trick every human being, and pull people into a virtual reality that is more real than it actually is. .

Plus, biology lab classes don't require the use of animal life experiments, and history classes allow kids to participate in historical events this year through the use of technology. There are many physical and chemical experiments that students can try out in the virtual world. .

Christmas in the meta-world

On December 22, 2021, NVIDIA announced Frozen, which took 300 hours to develop. The event is also a virtual Christmas world created by Nvidia and the Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) to raise funds. In total, the virtual world covers more than 30 million square meters and covers an area of ​​nearly 160,000 square meters.

This guide uses Nvidia's ray tracing technology to bring celebratory stories like Santa's adventures, activities, Ferris wheels and roller coasters to life.

This virtual world also includes all GOSH buildings. People can donate to GOSH hospital in this virtual world to give Christmas gifts to children in the hospital. The final funding raised will be used to develop cutting-edge medical equipment, research into start-ups for the treatment and cure of minor illnesses, and support for patients and their families.

People can explore the maze of hedges, ride a roller coaster, or play with penguins. There is also a Christmas market where you can walk.

The current Christmas metaverse is still difficult, but as Nvidia benefits from the future exchange rate, the investments and R&D related to the metaverse will inevitably increase, and the experience of the metaverse and its impact on installations will be very good. We believe that the future meta-space project developed by NVIDIA will improve and develop.

Design and experimentation in the meta world

NVIDIA is a market leader in applications for the Meta Universe. Nvidia announced the beta of Omniverse in October 2020, over 17,000 users tested the experience and more companies including BMW, Ericsson, Volvo, Adobe, Epic Games and many more participated in the Omniverse collaboration. Omniverse is an open platform designed for virtual collaboration and engine simulation, called the Engineers Meta-Universe. Specialists can create simulations of robots, vehicles, manufacturers and other equipment. Users and teams can integrate design tools, resources, and operations in a collaborative environment to replicate and integrate them, replacing negative workflows for designers, designers, and designers.

BMW Group was the first automaker to use Omniverse to create the end-to-end digital twin of its entire plant. Omniverse generates thousands of dollars around the world by experimenting with complete factory designs that include workers, robots, buildings, assemblies, and more. Production Network Product development, project management and lean professionals collaborate in a virtual environment to complete complex processes such as pre-production design, simulation and optimization.

Volvo also uses Omniverse to build cars, Ericsson uses Omniverse to simulate 5G wireless networks, British architectural firm Foster Partners uses Omniverse to carry out group collaborations in 14 countries, and more.

Foster Partners is headquartered at Apple headquarters and in London. The design and construction company designed the Mary Ax 30 building (better known as "Gherkin"). Business designers from 14 countries / regions have teamed up to build the homes in a shared virtual space of the Omniverse.

Multinational networks and telecommunications company Ericsson uses Omniverse to simulate 5G propagation over a period of time to minimize interference in a high density and high density network. dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense dense The infrastructure engineering software company of Bentley Systems, Bentley Systems uses the Omniverse to develop its own infrastructure. build 4D digital infrastructure twins on its platform to simulate the structure of its heritage, then monitor and optimize it for the rest of its life.

Omnibus, which works seamlessly in real time in the virtual world, is rapidly gaining popularity in many fields due to its high efficiency and low cost. industry sector.

In the past, most of the architecture was based on art. With the omnibus platform, you can create realistic and high-precision 3D graphics on a virtual platform, and after successful experience in the virtual world, you can return to the real world to complete each construction in one go. . quick.

Volvo uses the omnibus in automobile manufacturing.

Nvidia is committed to creating a meta-world for professionals. We can see that the Omniverse platform has many applications in many industries such as automotive, communications, construction and other industries. Nvidia technology is also used by many large companies in the industry. And making this industrial model work requires enormous Chinese strength. And the NVIDIA Omnibus Flat

Taiwan has experienced great strength.

Alibaba took advantage of the meta-universe but created a research institute. In October 2021, Alibaba formed a million XR company of the Dharma organization and convened a group of Chinese experts including Li Honghua and Shi Jiadong. The XR Lab is hosted directly by Tan Ping. Tan Ping is a specialist in 3D modeling and holographic technology, as well as a former vice president of the 360 ​​Artificial Intelligence Lab. Its main direction is the research and development of 3D modeling and holographic technology.

XR Lab discusses the Meta Universe application in agriculture and its potential applications. XR Lab develops the harvesting of cultures in the laboratory. From the 3D model of the orchard and the fruits, a virtual 3D model of the whole orchard is created and the robot can prepare the movement to pick up virtual apples on Earth. As presented at the meeting, it has the advantage of reducing some of the heavy workload of the planting process and reducing the costs of managing the vineyard. Robots can also work during the day and pick apples at night. In the process of developing agricultural harvesting systems, XR Lab has also developed agricultural services. The platform allows the collection and management of robot data. In theory, all of this information can fit into the virtual world, and the virtual world can be the basis for understanding the real world. The robot was first tested at Apple's headquarters in Shaanxi province in September this year.

XR Lab also completed the intelligent operating and monitoring robot used in the IDC computer room. The robots use vision and touch fusion algorithms to analyze data centers, change hard drive and inventory status, test and run in Alibaba Cloud data centers.
