The way businesses, enterprises, industry leaders and consumers use technology in their daily work will undergo the most dramatic evolution yet. Until just a few years ago, it was almost impossible to imagine that any technology, whether networked computers, the Internet or even mobile he could have a greater impact than computing. . But now the immersive mixed reality that underpins the Metaverse is making just that difficult.
How companies can leverage their “digital twins”
Today’s IT leaders are building a metaverse, represented by knowledge workers and their “digital twins”. It’s a virtual world where people, consumers and workers all come together to communicate, collaborate and share through a virtual presence on any device. This means businesses can build immersive virtual spaces, aka the metaverse, where employees can collaborate virtually using their digital twins through chat, email, video calls, and even face-to-face meetings.
Big names like Microsoft, Accenture, and Facebook (now called Meta) are all paving the way for this new business reality, but behind the scenes they are all involved in building immersive reality, modeling and simulation technologies. Some companies are working on it. Empower this new metaverse.
What companies can do with the metaverse
In particular, Microsoft believes that individuals will be able to coexist in virtual environments existing as avatars, and perhaps someday as holograms, and interact with each other in immersive experiences. The company expects users to access virtual settings from the Mesh for Teams application via mixed reality headsets such as HoloLens, as well as smartphones and laptops they use every day.
As one of its early enterprise-level builds, Accenture has developed a “virtual campus” where employees gather for coffee, parties, presentations and other virtual events. The company leverages this virtual meeting space to help build a virtual twin when new employees are onboarded.
Modeling is central to powering the metaverse
Digital twins based on modeling and simulation play a leading role in this virtual metaverse. With simulation, companies can take a copy of the digital twin, run simulations on it, and identify optimizations that are too complex to find by simply monitoring the physical environment.
Whether optimizing production plans in the automotive sector, accelerating designs in the aerospace industry, improving overall production efficiency for manufacturers, or increasing productivity, the power of simulation will help companies and organizations in various industries across the metaverse. It will be a game changer for your business. To increase accuracy in consumer packaged goods companies, many are poised to leverage virtual simulations to make better business decisions and generate maximum return on investment.
Optimal immersive reality systems are needed to support hyper-realistic, high-fidelity digital twin visuals during the modeling and simulation process. Accurate blending of virtual and real worlds in a multi-platform environment and the ability to demonstrate different realistic environments.
The Metaverse is a new kind of application enabled by tight integration between the real and virtual worlds. The Metaverse is powered by a number of new technologies that can be broadly classified into five groups, as shown below.
- Communications and computing infrastructure: The Metaverse needs to perform large computationally intensive tasks and access large databases in order to integrate the real and virtual worlds.
- management technology: The metaverse requires a lot of resources such as energy, computing, etc. This layer manages and allocates the most optimal resources to run the metaverse.
- Basic common technology: AI, spatio-temporal consistency is a basic common technology in the Metaverse.
- Virtual reality object connection: The Metaverse creates a one-to-one connection between objects in the real and virtual worlds and technologies such as blockchain, and identity modeling makes this possible.
- Fusion of virtual reality space: The metaverse fundamentally needs new media to interact with. AR/VR/MR, BCI and gaming technology make this possible.
Immersive reality solution providers offer the following foundational technologies to run the industrial enterprise metaverse:
1: Fusion of virtual reality space:
answer: AR/VR:
- Ultra-low latency high fidelity rendering: Low latency is critical to delivering an immersive experience in the metaverse. AR/VR partners can leverage full-fidelity ultra-low latency remote rendering in the cloud/on-premises and wirelessly stream their solutions to affordable commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) devices (HMDs, tablets, desktops). It offers an unparalleled realism environment.
- High-precision 3D artificial intelligence (AI)-based spatial mapping: It uses high-fidelity 3D scene reconstruction, scene segmentation, and high-fidelity remote spatial mapping using 3D vision and 3D object recognition with deep learning-based AI that accurately blends the real and virtual worlds. to integrate the real and virtual worlds.
Game engine: Consumer game engines are limited in that they can only handle metaverses that fit on a single server. The metaverse will continue to grow as more digital twins are created to simulate real-world objects in virtual worlds. The right AR/VR partners have created data-centric simulation engines that can handle all the complexities of the metaverse.
2: Communications and Computing Infrastructure:
a: Cloud Computing/Edge Computing: Industrial enterprises will always subscribe to multi-cloud, edge cloud. Depending on various factors such as data sensitivity, latency, and cost, different parts of the metaverse should be run in different clouds/edges in a distributed fashion. AR/VR partners automate metaverse executions for industrial companies.
b: messaging framework: In a distributed metaverse, the metaverse needs to be globally updated so that users can collaborate seamlessly. AR/VR partners distribute messaging framework updates to the metaverse globally.
Basic common technology:
Security and Privacy: Security and privacy are one of the biggest issues facing the world today. The metaverse contains richer data because the digital twin is included as an integral part of the metaverse. Metaverse security and privacy cannot be solved with traditional security tools. AR/VR partners have built tools to handle the security and privacy associated with digital twins.
The Metaverse will be important for all businesses, enterprises and consumers. Today, people and employees can only experience the internet if they log on online with a computer or mobile device, but with new connections, devices and technologies leveraging his mix of immersives, people and employees can now experience the internet anywhere, every day. Become.
