What do you mean, hyperuniverse?

At present, the hyperuniverse is a fire. Although this concept has a long history, the real "breaking circle" has entered the public's field of vision, undoubtedly because a well-known social software officially announced its strategic transformation and changed its name to "Meta". So what is the significance of this meta-universe that brings countless giants closer?

What do you mean, hyperuniverse?

The English name of Hyperuniverse is Metauniverse, which was put forward by American writer Neil Stevenson in 1992. At that time, he wrote a science fiction novel "Avalanche", in which he invented the term "Hyperuniverse". According to his description, in the future, we will be in a world of digital weaving, and communicate with each other through the virtual body body double.

The so-called meta-universe refers to the space of virtual world, which will provide users with rich consumption content and interactive experience. , corresponding to domestic cloud games, VR and other industries, is the ultimate form of the Internet.

If you still find it difficult to understand the concept of metauniverse, you can watch the movie Ready Player One, which means that people enter an immersive digital world in the form of a virtual body body double, just like playing games in the real world and experiencing a kind of "second life". I used to think it was science fiction, but now the brain-computer interface and VR technology are gradually maturing and may be realized in the near future. Especially in the past two years, the giants began to set foot in the field of meta-universe.

In addition, there are actually various forms and understandings in the hyperuniverse, such as human consciousness, and even the connection between body and network, which allows us to truly enter the virtual digital world, such as The Matrix, Superbody, and completely enter the digital world. Avatar can download and save our consciousness and memory on another body.

In addition to "immigrants" like us, there are its aborigines in the meta-universe, that is, the existing AI digital people. In Out of Control Player, it is the awakening of NPC characters.

Back to reality, the meta-universe in our daily life refers to creating a new virtual reality world by using blockchain, AR/VR, virtual space and other technologies.

Observing the market, game platforms are the fastest growing in the meta-universe, followed by some social platforms. It can be said that "Meta Universe" has been inseparable from the game industry, and the track competition of domestic Meta Universe seems to be gradually unfolding. Tencent, Netease, ByteDance's investment code Gan Kun, soul, known as the "social meta-universe", and Miha Tour, which are already in the layout, want to make a virtual world where 654.38 billion people live, and more companies are bound to enter in the future. However, among many enterprises linked to the meta-universe, there are also many enterprises just wearing the coat of the meta-universe. Numerous giants are approaching the meta-universe. From this we seem to be able to foresee the future.

But on the whole, all these show that the giants are optimistic about this field. However, at present, the conceptual capacity of the metaworld is still relatively small. The most favorable are two directions. One is access equipment, such as VR vendors; The second is the game business and other sectors. As for the specific stocks, I won't list them here. It should be noted that this concept is only in its infancy, so it will encounter certain bubble risks and technical problems in the development process, which will definitely bring some fluctuations.
