Metaverse Is Coming, Who Will Lead Us to Touch the Real Virtual World?

There was a prediction from the VC circle that the meta-universe is the next huge wave of innovation in the 20th grade after the mobile Internet.

Technology companies have poured in, giants such as Facebook renamed Meta (abbreviated from Metaverse), the ambition of laying out the meta-universe is written directly on their faces; games and social software are coming out frequently, and the gel app, which has just passed the limelight, relies on face pinching, status, location sharing, etc. to capture the hearts of the Z-era. According to Gartner's forecast, 30% of the world's enterprise organizations will have meta-universe products and services in 2026.

Of course, the metaverse can be so hot, but also can not be separated from the science fiction literature, film and television works of credit. The Avalanche, Top Gun, and The Matrix use wild imagination to depict an unknown, cyberpunk, human-machine fusion human world for the public.

Humans love to create and expect to stop dancing in shackles. The metaverse is the key to unlocking these shackles. You don't have to be confined to a location, you don't have to bother with your identity, and you can connect with the world infinitely through avatars, virtual-reality interaction, and online virtual communities anytime, anywhere.

So what is the progress bar of the metaverse's "world-making"? What has come true and what is still suspended in the brain? Can we find such an experimental site and feel the impact of the metaverse on our lives?

On April 29, 36 Krypton, in collaboration with the West Lake District Government of Hangzhou, made the first official appearance of the Wen San Digital Life Carnival and the Wen San Digital Life Neighborhood, in the form of a two-week carnival flash mob, slowly telling people about the evolutionary path of digital life.

"Read and Write" Meta-universe

The world's other me can be the name of a friend, or a digital copy of the "me" in a parallel world. 

The metaverse is such a "copy" world of reality, a durable, immersive digital environment composed of independent but interconnected networks. It has four main characteristics: an immersive experience, digital identity, economic system, and virtual social governance.

Rokid was one of the first companies involved in the development of smart AR glasses in China and has received several rounds of financing, the most recent being the 700 million RMB Series C round in March this year. In the opinion of CEO Zhu Mingming, AR smart glasses are equivalent to a portable "giant screen", which can provide a 3D visual experience for different scenarios such as games and offices. 

"Progress one said, VR, AR technology, will bring humans into the 'three-dimensional holographic' information perspective. This will completely subvert many of our access to information, generate information, interact with the world, and conduct production, just as the computer once changed the world." 

Zhang Dongyu, head of NetEase's MR Innovation Lab, said in the "cloud". 

There is an obvious consensus that digital glasses have become an important channel to connect physical people to the meta-universe.

However, it is not easy to upgrade the information, and the three-dimensional digital content is still in the "no mass production stage".

From the perspective of accessibility, the metaverse is a large-scale participatory medium, and the number of interactive users will reach billions.

At present, large online games run on game operators' servers and users' computers as processing terminals. In this mode, the performance requirements of computer terminals form the threshold of user use, which in turn limits user access; at the same time, the terminal servers have limited carrying capacity, making it difficult to support large-scale users online at the same time.

So How Long Will It Take?

Naked eyes can interact with the Daschle 0 employees "Kiki", is providing a reference digital case. Daschle CEO Zhou Quan joked that the happiness of the broad digital people you can not imagine. 

Specific to time, Gartner predicts that it will take at least 7 to 8 years for the industry to move toward maturity. By then, device dependency will be significantly reduced, and the digital innovation portfolio will become the new trend. 

Finding the Real "Virtual World" That Never Goes Down

The Virtual Is in the Dream, the Real Is in the Realm.

The carnival guests depicted the past, present, and future of the meta-universe; the carnival itself, through the four themes of Future Life Speculation Conference, Future Life Curiosity Debut, Daydreamer-Future Life Show, and Digital Life Roundtable, presented the meta-universe concretely. 

This is a knowable, perceivable, and touchable urban target.

Ali Dharma Institute has built the "Wen San Digital Life Neighborhood" in a parallel world with AR technology. 

NetEase MR, the world's first amusement experience center, seamlessly integrates the concept of the metaverse, traditional shooting games, and science fiction holographic technology. 

Perfect World TFS immersive entertainment complex is the first store in the world, with realistic restored game scenes and props that can be used online and offline, the model will open the industry first.

Netease Fantasy West immersion complex concept, the Kingdom of Odor "odor meta-universe" experience hall, Rokid XR concept of future interaction, 0101Park 0 staff "Ao Yi" NFT, and another limited debut of Wen San. 

"Technology +" wild music party, meta-universe treasure hunting, cosplay show, canopy film festival, daydreamer street dance competition, to bring the audience a more immersive audio-visual feast ..... 

It is easy to see that the Wen San Digital Carnival, through the integration of digital twin, big data, cloud computing, blockchain, AR, MR, and other technologies, generates rich digital assets such as high-quality AR short videos, city IP virtual images, digital RMB, NFT, etc. while creating immersive meal shows, TED talks, performing arts and other experience projects.

This mode of "realistic neighborhood + high-tech multimedia + rich activities" can effectively prolong the stay of visitors and turn the neighborhood from a "Netflix" to a "long red". Who does not want to enter a real "virtual world" with excellent experience, an orderly environment, a low entry barrier, and never down? 

Fate is a snake in the grass, the pulse of a thousand miles. Turn back 20 years, Wen San Street was once the most prestigious digital street in Hangzhou, located in the core business area of Hangzhou, giving birth to more than a dozen listed companies such as Alibaba, Oriental Communications, and Zhejiang University Network New, Xin Ya Da, Hikvision. It is no exaggeration to say that Wensan Street is to Hangzhou as Zhongguancun is to Beijing. 

In 2021, Wen San Street was given the important task of building "the first national digital life street" as a project transformation. Now the carnival starts two weeks of revelry, its meaning is more like an appetizer in Fine Dining, very new and delicious, but this is just the beginning. It unveils a corner of human imagination and creativity as a pioneer.

We don't know how long it will take to complete the meta-universe of the Wen-San Digital Living District, but many connected 3D virtual worlds applied to multiple fields such as office, entertainment, and creativity have already entered the construction phase, from street scenes and stores to the smallest of handrails and floor tiles. 

This requires the collaboration of many parties. In particular, the brands in the neighborhood, and their creativity are becoming the source of life for the development of the Wenshan Digital Life District. 

If you have the digital key in hand and do not want to just imagine the digital world of the future, welcome to enter this real "virtual world" and set off first with the Wenzan Digital Life District.

From the perspective of fidelity, the pixel fineness of 3D digital scenes is still far from the fidelity effect due to the rendering capability of personal computer graphic processors (GPU).

From the viewpoint of interactivity, the content freely created by third parties and the continuous incentive of a closed-loop economy is the core driving force for the continuation and expansion of Meta Universe. Currently, the programming threshold for UGC creation is too high, and the high customization and accessibility of creation cannot be combined, while few metaverse products have a closed-loop economy.

LGD eSports Club star player disguise deeply, technology has driven the innovation of gaming equipment, and the scenes in Top Gun will finally be presented in real life.
