Overview
Virtual Reality (VR) in Web3 refers to the integration of immersive, head-mounted display technology with blockchain-based platforms. This combination allows for a 'spatial internet' where users don't just view content but inhabit it, with their actions and assets secured by decentralized ledgers.
Key Concepts
- Immersive Interaction: Using VR headsets to experience 3D environments with a high degree of presence.
- Asset Visualization: Viewing and interacting with 3D NFTs and virtual property in a natural, spatial way.
- Decentralized Hosting: Storing the assets and logic of VR worlds on decentralized networks like IPFS or Arweave.
Applications
- Virtual Real Estate: Exploring and developing land in platforms like Decentraland or The Sandbox.
- Social VR: Meeting other users' avatars in decentralized social spaces.
- Immersive Gaming: Playing P2E games in a fully immersive 3D environment.
