Immersive Technologies White Paper: Exploring the Responsibility of Metaverses
• French-speaking stakeholders within the ecosystem contributed to a white paper in which they summarize the responsible uses and impacts of immersive technologies (metaverse, XR, etc.).
• They predict how important these technologies could be to health, education, training and entertainment through an adapted approach (accessibility by design), new mechanisms and a change in the law.
• They call for a reexamination of the complex way in which carbon footprint is measured, and argue that this measure should be incorporated into a holistic approach that includes other environmental impacts.
• The most significant potential progress cited: “Exploring the possibility of a non-territorialized self-governance specific to immersive technologies: a regulation “in metaverses and made by metaverses,” with values, laws, police and a justice system.”
