The Metaverse Overview : Vision, Technology, and Tactics | Technology 2. Technology Metaverse Characteristic Tech Cluster Role Tech Category XR Hologram Technology is the core element underpinning realization of the Metaverse, enabling Immersive Experience, High Simulation Simulation Interactive Path to the Metaverse Technology Technology Virtual-Real Interface BCI Sensing the creation of all of the components and experiences of the virtual world. Many Technology clusters of enabling technologies support the Metaverse, each cluster has several Machine Computer Real-time Operation, Artificial Algorithm Support Learning Vision Digital subcategories, and each subcategory can support multiple Metaverse functions. For Multi-dimensional Interaction Intelligence Content Production Smart NLP Twin the convenience of this discussion, we use the sequence of key user scenarios in the Voice Metaverse as the spine of the following summary of technical categories. These key Creation The Most Intuitive Game Engine 3D Engine Efficient Content Production & Interaction Way to Present Real-Time scenarios correspond to the key features of the Metaverse. After identifying the main Platform Virtual-Real interface Rendering Digital Twin supporting technologies, we describe the current stage of each major category.
