"Sniffing the Metaverse" by Benjamin Cabé (Strange Loop 2022)
Discover the metaverse beyond virtual reality, as Benjamin Cabé explores IoT, sensors, metadata, and TinyML to bridge the physical and digital worlds.
- The metaverse doesn’t have to be everything 3D and virtual reality.
- Start with small devices and make them smaller.
- Remote-sensing devices can be temporary or a use case for people who want to see every device.
- Bluetooth beacons are not enough; we need a way to bottle milk and anticipate problems.
- IoT devices collect tons of information, which needs to be fed into the system.
- Open source, open hardware, and actual hardware are important for innovation.
- The metaverse is not just social and virtual, but also has to involve IT and existing systems.
- IoT devices need to be interoperable with existing systems and databases.
- Sensor data needs to be correlated with existing data to provide insights.
- TinyML can be used to run machine learning models on small devices.
- The metaverse is an opportunity to bridge the gap between physical and digital worlds.
- Devices can be connected through MQTT brokers or ontologies to describe entities.
- The metaverse is not just about virtual reality, but also about augmenting reality.
- There are standards and ontologies for IoT devices, sensors, and data.
- The metaverse can involve spatial information, like latitude and longitude.
- The metaverse is not just about connecting devices, but also about connecting people.
- There are many use cases for the metaverse, including healthcare, retail, manufacturing, and more.
