Metaverse: How immersive technologies are enabling new customer and employee experiences
The term ‘metaverse’ can be traced back to Neal Stephenson and his dystopian cyberpunk novel, Snow Crash, released in 1992. It combines multiple elements of technology, including virtual reality, augmented reality and video, where users “live” within a digital universe.
The metaverse will be driven by diverse innovations, such as sensors, AI, GPU, ARM, cloud, 3D engines, and blockchain. It will enable fundamentally new experiences for eCommerce, social, gaming, education, skill augmentation, customer services, and so on.
