Keynote Abstract:

Metaverse, application demonstration and features

Metaverse is a high topic today. Many companies, Facebook, Google, Windows, Amazon speak about and invest a lot around the world, predicting the next step after world wide web.

We, all of us, by using several tools like social network, communication app, even computer and many other devices, are in fact already inside metaverse.

Through a live demonstration inworld (inside virtual world) by visiting concrete and finalized projects, Réveillard demonstrate  what kind of application can be developed and used for educational purpose.

Jean-François Réveillard built for the virtual Ellinogermaniki Agogi  island, several virtual environments dedicated to VR-learning:  classrooms,   library,  exhibition area,  serious  game, and  conference room existing since 2007, shown during the keynote, demonstrating the next step that we’ll have to face now.

The future of metaverse is also connected with the phenomena of NFT and use of blockchain. Réveillard  also shows at the end a concrete demonstration of what kind of application we can create inside metaverse using NFT.

To summarize, the topic is huge, but we can’t ignore it in order to obtain a full view of tomorrow, and even today, with more and more users particularly the new generations.
