In the world of tech buzzwords, “metaverse” has been topic of discussion, largely understood and misunderstood. It comes, goes, and comes again in new shapes and forms, definitions and understanding. The term has been around for three decades and is poised to continue its evolution.

In the past, it has been defined to suit the narratives of organizations and individuals alike. Some see it as a game, others as a virtual world, while some view it as a tool for global connection and collaboration. Apple’s VisionPro recently reignited the debate, shining a spotlight on another term: Spatial Computing. I delved deep into this concept and explored various perspectives in my upcoming book with BPB

📖 Exploring the Metaverse : Redefining reality in the digital age

This book aims to dispel myths and the reality of the metaverse. It covers hundreds of use cases of metaverse technologies across consumer and enterprise spaces, ranging from gaming and entertainment to healthcare, fitness, education, and industrial applications.

However, nothing in this world is without its costs. The metaverse comes with its concerns and challenges, and several chapters are dedicated to highlighting these issues and their implications for humanity and sustainability. There are also chapters dedicated to metaverse practices, standards, and initiatives aimed at evolving the metaverse ethically. Ultimately, it’s up to all of us to navigate these waters together.

The metaverse is on its way, whether we are ready or not. Advancements in AI, GenAI, and other technologies are bringing us even more closer to its larger goal: the Next Internet. It’s time to stay informed and get ready to embark on an exploration of the metaverse. 🚀
