The metaverse is a term for immersive networked digital space where users can operate the way they do in reality, this time in a digital world mimicking reality.
Metaverse is no longer a place solely for geeks and gamers or something out of science fiction novels, metaverse worlds are set to go mainstream and will be the next evolution of the internet. Cooperate innovations are adopting the metaverse for next level growth.
Heavy weight global store-chain retailer, Walmart recently announced interest in metaverse and a viral VPR has shown how you can shop in Walmart with metaverse. Nike, Raph Lauren and many more have also caught the bug.
With the growing mainstream adoption, job opportunities are growing for people with skills in metaverse technology.
Metaverse Creative Engineer:
Creating memorable and immersive metaverse virtual experience, tech companies are incorporating cutting-edge technologies to power the 3D world’s development. Such technologies include blockchain, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), 3D reconstruction, artificial intelligence (AI), and the Internet of things (IoT)..
This is where the Metaverse Creative Engineer comes in. As a metaverse creative engineer, the requisite technical application that will help bring the brief of any company to life is the job of a creative engineer.

3D Technologists
The 3D Technologies are not new concepts, the use of 3D reconstruction has been rising especially in the real estate industry, fashion retail and cooperate board meetings as lockdowns prevented potential buyers from visiting properties in person. Therefore, some agencies adopted 3D reconstruction technology to generate virtual property tours. Much like the metaverse we imagined, buyers could look around potential new homes from anywhere and make purchases without even having stepped foot inside.
One of the challenges for the metaverse is to create a digital environment that appears as close to our real world as possible. The 3D reconstruction technology is the foundation of 3D engineering, it can create realistic and natural-looking spaces. Through special 3D cameras, we can take our world online by rendering accurate 3D photorealistic models of buildings, physical locations, and objects. The 3D big-data and 4K HD photography are then transferred
to computers to process and generate a virtual replica in the metaverse for users to experience. These virtual replicas of physical world objects can also be referred to as digital twins.
