The Metaverse in the Physical World
With the latest updates in Augmented Reality technologies, the metaverse can now occupy the physical world through the geolocation of objects and virtual image on the image of the concrete world. Digital objects that were previously tied to immersion virtual universes can now occupy and superimpose the concrete world through our smartphones and tablets. In this conversation, we will explore what already exists and what is the creative potential in Art, Design and games that these tools can achieve. We will also review the concept of presence in virtual spaces and augmented reality, and how virtual objects can occupy the physical world, tied to a specific space and being a unique NFT.
