With the tagline "The Metaverse begins", 3D graphics giant just open beta launched Omniverse. Integrated with Unreal, Unity and a host of other industry standard development tools, I guess the best way to describe it is a metaverse for enterprise-level developers:
Omniverse aims for universal interoperability across different applications and 3D ecosystem vendors. It provides efficient real-time scene updates and is based on open-standards and protocols. The Omniverse Platform is designed to act as a hub, enabling new capabilities to be exposed as micro-services to any connected clients and applications.
In other words, not a Metaverse for consumers/non-professionals, at least not any time soon. But the need for a shared, online creation platform for pros in the COVID age is pretty clear.
