the term ‘metaverse’ was coined. The novel depicts people using virtual reality
technology and digital avatars of themselves to explore an online, digital world. In
this world, the characters can walk down the street, visit shops, offices, amusement

7. AUGMENTED REALITY (AR)
What is AR?
Almost any person with a smartphone can get access to augmented reality, making
it more efficient than VR as a branding and gaming tool. AR morphs the mundane,
physical world into a colorful, visual one by projecting virtual pictures and
characters through a phone's camera or video viewer. Augmented reality is merely
adding to the user's real-life experience.
8. VIRTUAL REALITY (VR)
What is VR?
Virtual reality takes these same components to another level by producing an
entirely computer-generated simulation of an alternate world. These immersive
simulations can create almost any visual or place imaginable for the player using
special equipment such as computers, sensors, headsets, and gloves.

14. WHAT IS BLOCKCHAIN?
Blockchain technology is one of Web3’s key features. Decentralization is at the heart
of web 3 which is built upon blockchain technology. With blockchain technology,
data is decentralized, open, and can be distributed. So users own their data and are
free to trade them without worrying about losing ownership, losing privacy, or
depending on intermediaries. In addition, it allows you to log in securely over the
Internet without being tracked by anyone.
Also, the use of blockchain-based tokens and cryptocurrencies in Web3 are
important aspects of the potential internet era.
