We live in a world that is constantly developing and growing towards a century that would lead us to live in the virtual reality world. Be it gaming, social media, or just your basic daily life tasks, they all are reaching the most optimized part of virtual reality. A place wherein you dwell in a world that is yours and works according to your desires. It is a simulation-based experience that gives you the chance to be a superhero of your choice and makes you the main lead of your life in a world that is curated by you. Technical Tuesdays are back with technology this month for you to feel the adrenaline rush as we move in the deeper concepts of science and technology.
META VERSE POPULARITY:
A convergence of virtual reality and digital life creates a metaverse system, with meta techs investing in gearing up for this technology, it creates a world where the environment can be easily controlled with the help of a controller present in your hand, and it also allows you to interact and build a connection with people in a virtual space where you can hang out with them.
Techno entrepreneurs believe the nourishment of this technology would open a new market of a variety of products that would include various consoles, monitors, and also a variety of avatars for each individual.
Microsoft cited this technology for 68.7 Billion Dollars stating that this investment was for the game development Activision, comprehending it to be the “Building block for the metaverse”. Previously, Mark Zuckerberg, Founder of Facebook has also shown the importance of this technology by retitling Facebook as Meta.
The market that comes along with the Metaverse is believed to be the representation of the computers of the 4th wave showcasing mobile, mainframe, and personal computing.
HOW ROBOTS LEARN TO HIKE
With the flourishing robotics development, it has become rather a muse of researchers and scientists to develop and understand robots on a whole new level.
The researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a legged robot ANYmal that can move rapidly through different terrains. This was made possible with the help of technologies like machine learning that made it possible for the robot to bind its atmosphere and sense for the first time. This control-based system is developed by Marco Hutter and his team.
This was made possible by making the robots like ANYmal decide the visible backgrounds and surrounding themselves instead of trusting the visuals as various factors can change or contemplate the surroundings wrongly based on different amounts of brightness present and the different terrains of the places which previously created a problem for robots to comprehend the surroundings.
The controllers are developed on the concepts of neural networks which has assisted the robot to master a variety of obstacles. Thus these robots can be used in severe conditions like earthquakes, forest fires, or any natural calamity which are difficult for humans to cope with.
