The Rest of the World to Dubai
It is a collection composed of realistic 3D digital worlds created in an environment of virtual reality in which users interact with computer-generated worlds and other users. It combines elements such as social media and augmented reality videos, VR cryptography, and other contemporary technologies in the broadest sense.
“Residents might be joined by acquaintances from all over the world, in avatars taking an imaginary walk around a park within the city,” Al Hajri added in his presentation of ideas for how a city could be run. Additionally, people can visit historical events or experience deep tours of the most famous places in the virtual world.”
The Next Fantastic Business Opportunity
According to Bloomberg Intelligence, the metaverse could generate around $800 billion in revenues in 2024, the next big market for businesses and industries.
