“Demystifying, Defining, Developing, and Deploying the Metaverse”

The scope of the Standards Committee is to develop and maintain standards, recommended practices, and guides for metaverse, virtual reality and augmented reality, using an open and accredited process, and to advocate them on a global basis. Its technical scope is intended to be flexible and is ultimately determined by the sum of its approved PARs.

Metaverse refers to a kind of experience in which the outside world is perceived by the users (human or non-human) as being a universe that is built upon digital technologies as a different universe (“Virtual Reality”), a digital extension of our current universe (“Augmented Reality”), or a digital counterpart of our current universe (“Digital Twin”).
