As part of Facebook’s metaverse players will be able to connect across digital and physical worlds using augmented reality – but how realistic are their plans?
At the Facebook Connect event, Mark Zuckerberg’s opening keynote detailed the plans he has for a metaverse that combines the real virtual world that allow people to connect wherever they are in the world – using devices like the Oculus Quest 2 headset and the Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses. Users will be able to create AR tags attached to real-world locations to create art and tell stories, play table tennis or chess with players that aren’t there physically, and interact with digital objects that react realistically to user movements.
