Buying Metaverse Real Estate
Using 3D laser scanning services, Everdome, creator of the most hyper-realistic metaverse, held an auction for investors to bid on upwards of 12,000 plots of metaverse land. The plots were available for eight weeks, beginning on May 30, 2022, and were located throughout the Everdome ecosystem.
Introduced in several phases throughout the year, the company offered a unique journey from the United Arab Emirates to virtual colonies on Mars. Using the latest 3D scanning services technology and Epic Games Unreal Engine 5, Everdome delivered hyper-realistic graphics that bridge a virtual reality with real-world scenarios.
Over eight weeks, the sale of 12,000 hexagonal plots was broken up into separate auctions of 1,500 plots each. The plots, recreated from 3D laser scanning and imaging, were located within one of Everdome’s six unique districts.
Executives at Everdome and Metahero believe the pandemic and the disconnection people have felt from quarantines has led to the advancement of 3D scanning technology and modeling to provide a unique and fun way to connect with others.
Users can now, at the press of a button, whenever they choose, enter a real-world experience in the metaverse, with graphics and imaging to match. Near limitless industries can take advantage of the customer experience within a metaverse.
A purchase of a plot of land, modeled from 3D laser scanning, gives “landowners” the same ownership rights and privileges as they would have in the real world. In addition, they will be able to develop and maintain the plot as they desire and market and sell later.
The fully immersive experience takes the technology provided by 3D scanning. It combines it with the skills and visions of talented game designers, concept artists, city planning professionals, and virtual effects specialists.
The launch occurred in three phases, originating from Hatta in the United Arab Emirates. As the auctions were completed and the orders were fulfilled, land owners could purchase and maintain 3D scanned plots of land on Mars.
Final Thoughts on The Use of 3D Laser Scanning Services
This unique opportunity offering is likely just the start of access to the metaverse with availability for “land” and ownership, only to get easier as 3D scanning services and modeling provide hyper-realistic experiences.
