Metaverse Explained For Real Estate Agents | Real Estate Coaching (5)

Today’s podcast is part 5 of 5 podcasts about the Metaverse and what it really means to the real estate industry, real estate agents, and our future. Today Tim and Julie Harris answer your questions about the Metaverse: All about Avatars. Most of the questions were about Avatars and how will interactions happen in the Metaverse. If you haven’t heard yet, Facebook has rebranded itself as ‘Meta’. A Metaverse is a digital reality that marries social media, online apps and gaming, augmented and virtual reality, plus cryptocurrency, so we can all interact more efficiently online. That was the most epic run-on sentence ever, but necessary to explain all that’s involved with the Metaverse. 1 - How are we all supposed to interact? Enter the ‘Avatar’, a representation of you. You’ll have a very realistic depiction of yourself, but also the ability to upgrade your hairstyle, your clothing, accessories, and general look. You’ll be able to be very creative or not creative…it’s up to you. This is why your choice of Avatar is important. 2 - Your 3D Avatar is supposed to be a representation of your SELF, however, you have the opportunity to modify, upgrade and change so many things. However, be careful of the subtleties. 3 - For perspective, realize that you already have and are using Avatars every day , assuming you have any presence on social media at all. You uploaded your picture to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and so on. Some of you even update images every day. These images already represent YOU. Your Avatar is the next logical extension of this. From skywell.com : “Recently, avatars have become increasingly popular in the world of VR and in hardware and software systems that can replicate real-world movements using sensors. Usually, all of this falls into one of these categories: Virtual Reality Avatars – A VR avatar is typically a first-person rendition where the user sees the world from the avatar’s point of view. Otherworld participants can see the upper torso part of the avatar, along with arms, but without the lower limbs. You’ll find this type in most rudimentary VR apps, which do not require complex leg movements or in-world mobility. Reminder, you promised yourself you would become a HARRIS Coaching client.

Full body avatars – In a full-body avatar, sensors replicate and recreate the entire body’s movements through a kinematics system. As a result, the user has greater freedom of mobility inside the virtual world and can use all limbs to interact with digital assets. Sophisticated VR games typically use this type, and Facebook’s Metaverse will likely choose this route as well. Secret: eXp World already has this fully functional! From ‘ OutOfScope.com '
