Urban planners and city administrators will find valuable insights on how the metaverse can be integrated into the planning and development of smart, sustainable, and future cities. The book begins with an introduction to the concepts and technology of the metaverse as well as its history.
It then sheds light on the current and future challenges and opportunities that the metaverse presents to cities and the quality of life of urban dwellers.
It delves into the ways in which the metaverse can change cities, both in terms of their physical and virtual environments, and the impact it can have on the lives of those who live in them.
It brings together the latest research and perspectives from experts in the fields of virtual reality, urban planning, and sustainability, to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date picture of this rapidly evolving field.
