“ In the present , AR experiences are becoming increasingly sophisticated ,” he says . “ For instance , the latest VR headsets are more wearable , and real world items are increasingly being brought into this virtual space . Even smartphones have become powerful AR tools , with social media filters and apps helping to bring the virtual world into the real world .
“ The future of the metaverse depends on collective buy-in to the concept and technologies , a clear framework for interconnectivity , and ease of use . In order for the metaverse to be enticing , it needs to solve a problem or otherwise make life easier and more enjoyable . These changes must be executed by organisations with a keen vision , and skilled technologists willing to create innovative solutions for the problems of the metaverse .
“ At present , the metaverse still has flaws , but it also has immense potential to augment and improve our technological lives . There is real value in pursuing the metaverse , and there is an immersive digital world just waiting to be built . That said , businesses need to take a step back before diving head first into the space . Building the skills of existing talent within organisations to support innovation in this space will be key to its success .”
