Ok, I'll do my best to explain this ... Imagine a geography teacher who wants to take her class of students to 'Paris' for 30 minutes, all while in the classroom. Teacher has a 'movement jacket on, with sensors' and a 'feeder information' special teacher headset, and each student has their own (or schools) headset. The entire class with teacher has an interactive 'field trip' to Paris, at almost zero cost.
This happens because, someone already 'video mapped 'Pairs' as a 360 degree walk or 'drone' tour (the entire class can simply jump over the River Saine) to access Notre Dame or Louvre Gallery. ... and that's just the start of it !
Lets up it a bit. Imagine: Meta supplies people 'an up-load meta 'mapping' hat' (a hat with many cameras to include a smart processer box). Now, let's say: I own HMS Victory, a historic battleship. I wear the 'Meta-cam-hat' and record a full walk round tour of my battleship; I now upload the data and hook it to the 'Meta-verse' connection it to the 'Historic area of the Meta-City 'say' on my mooring in the harbour. Now people can pay me a few $'s money to clamber on board my 'micro-verse' (huge great historic ship).
The same tec, can offer 'cruse ships', public parks where you meet other 'Meta' people who are real some-ware but also are walking in the meta park, historic events 'non-interactive- pre-recorded', composers and artists, and if 'live' you can chat to them. (good for disability / care homes / or lonely people)
To 'walk' around the 'Meta-City' you have a 'meta-chair' where you just sit, and like a mobility scooter' this one goes no-ware, but the controls steer you. left right drone 'up' or pause, dot pointer, or full exit.'
Everyone can open up their own 'meta' house / business /shop, (having '360 Paris' scanned their micro-verse' first and uploaded it).
The 'Meta-City' can be a real-estate place, where you 'tack/rent' your own room, store, workshop, art-gallery, soapbox'. You could buy or rent a 'room' or have 'Meta' take 'say' 20% on all transactions, with money feeding into your bank account.
Imagine a 'massive' hardware store, where you can grab a meta trolly, connect to your virtual meta-scooter then (going no-where in reality) push it around the store, using your 'meta-dot' pointer load your trolly, and buy the goods, that empty the trolly, but in reality, they get delivered to your door.
The 'Mega-City' keeps expanding, with 360-degree 'Glastonbury' festivals, Swift and other music concerts, racing tracks -where you too can drive-, maybe get on board a yacht, Bulldozer, spaceship, or hang in the live 'meta' theme cafe and chat to others.
In my view, there is no way this could not take off. It's what computers are to a mouse, is the 'Meta-Verse' to a Data-hat, Meta-scooter, Meta Bank, dot pointer and all the rest.
So, .... Could someone tell 'META' Please.
