Microsoft Working to Bridge Its Services With the Metaverse – One of the biggest software corporations in the world, Microsoft, believes that the metaverse will play a major role in the digital future for both institutions and consumers. Ihsan Anabtawi, CMO of Microsoft UAE, spoke about the company’s ambitions and its thoughts on the metaverse as part of its focus.
The development of the metaverse is inevitable in Anabtawi’s view. This new tool should be viewed as a natural development that will enhance the current state of the internet. In response, he said: “We should view the metaverse as the next step in the evolution of the internet, which began as an internet of data in the 1990s and 2000s, the internet of people in 2010s and is now the internet of things.”
Microsoft is currently attempting to connect its cloud and other business units with various metaverse experiences in order to let users and businesses create sophisticated apps. Microsoft aggressively invests in supplying the tools required to make this a reality in the long run in order to increase the number of users in the metaverse. For the company, this was more than just a trend, according to Anabtawi.
He declared: “This isn’t a short-term investment; this is bringing the full power of our work across several areas to enable the future of computing in the metaverse for business and consumers.”
This commitment to the metaverse includes the company’s Hololens 2 headset, which will enable other businesses to create holographic prototypes rather than physical ones and do different computations for, as an example, the design of a product before mass production. In this way, the analytics, data, and artificial intelligence required for this activity would be provided by Microsoft’s cloud division as part of its backend.
Microsoft has also been active in the consumer market. The business introduced Mesh in November, a metaverse function for its Teams app that enables the use of virtual avatars during calls. As a member of the Metaverse Standard Forum, which was established in June, Microsoft is also actively engaged in the development of metaverse standards.
