What Does it Mean to “Build the Metaverse"?

# data[].attributes.body
The metaverse is defined as a unified 3D virtual world where users can conglomerate via their digital selves (i.e., avatars) and perform complex interactions. Originally envisioned by science fiction writer Neal Stephenson as a metaphor of the real world, the concept shot into prominence after Facebook’s mid-year earnings call in 2021 when it announced massive investments in building the metaverse. The term metaverse can be traced back to Neal Stephenson and his dystopian cyberpunk novel Snow Crash.

But what exactly does it mean to build the metaverse? Unlike most virtual reality apps, the metaverse isn’t a single software platform that can be built using your usual agile development model.

Rather, it is a complex digital environment that relies on seven distinct layers (suggested by Jon Radoff, author of Building the Metaverse blog)

India is on track to have the largest app developer base in the world by 2024, and has one of the largest augmented reality developer communities, something seen as crucial in building next frontier of digital ecosystem.

Mark Zuckerberg lent heavily on Indian engineers and content developers here for the creation of metaverse.

Bolly Heroes is a platform for combining Bollywood and Metaverse .The platform offers people to create a ‘Bollyverse,’ where they can write, act and produce their own stories and characters to launch community-driven films, games, shows and animation.

If the metaverse is to become an embodied internet, then it must have certain properties that separate it from isolated virtual reality experiences like Second Life.
Venture capitalist Matthew Ball describes them on his website:
metaverse is a massively scaled and interoperable network of real-time rendered 3D virtual worlds which can be experienced synchronously and persistently by an effectively unlimited number of users with an individual sense of presence, and with continuity of data, such as identity, history, entitlements, objects, communications, and payments.

Mixed reality

Mixed reality incorporates elements of VR and AR, but the exact definition is murky. A person can interact with virtual and real-world objects, and virtual objects can interact with real-world ones.

Augmented reality

AR is a digital overlay projected on the real world. Think of Niantic’s Pokemon Go, Snapchat’s dancing hot dog, or even wearables like Google Glass.

Virtual reality

VR is an immersive experience where one puts on a headset and sees, and can operate within, a digital world. VR currently uses full headsets rather than glasses, immersing the user in a 360° virtual world

Several people can create their avatars and participate in this collective online universe. These “virtual properties” are being sold for millions of dollars on the internet. Recently, land in the Decentraland online world was sold for $2.4 million. So, this is another trend that is emerging with the arrival of the metaverse.
