We will have to get used to the word Metaverse from here on and we should understand well what is it. Many companies like Meta (formerly Facebook) they intend to invest a lot of money in this new project and Qualcomm could not fail to join them. After seeing how the first bank bought the first virtual plot of land in the Metaverse, we go to see the plans of the American giant. He has in fact created a fund for developers who want to get involved.
Qualcomm also wants to invest in the Metaverse and has allocated $ 100 million for the developers. Here's everything you need to know
During the Game Developers Conference (where by the way Oppo showed a revolutionary technology) Qualcomm announced officially his intention to enter the world of the Metaverse. How? By setting up a $ 100 million fund that developers can use in creating several smaller projects. This fund set up by the company is called Snapdragon Metaverse Fund.
It should be noted that Qualcomm is not entirely new to this world. In fact, he presented the processor XR1 e XR2 specifically designed to meet the unique needs and requirements of today's virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) devices.
But how will Qualcomm's fund for the Metaverse be used? With these 100 million the company set out to help developers in creation of a new ecosystem. The program involves the creation of games, of fitness applications and development of an education and entertainment platform. Qualcomm supplies the chips for VR and AR to many companies such as the aforementioned Meta but also Microsoft.
Qualcomm's project and its Metaverse will become official a June, when the fund "comes into effect". If there are any interested developers among you, you can apply for more information by going to the Official site.
