  • Mark said they were working on an experience termed “Project Nazareth.”
  • Meta is expected to invest at least $10 billion this year.

Announcing his lofty aspirations to establish the “metaverse,” Mark Zuckerberg stated that users would be able to accomplish practically anything they can imagine.

Facebook recently relaunched as “Meta,” changing its logo to an eternal loop, focusing on the Metaverse rather than social networking. A virtual experience similar to real-world experiences is Meta’s goal, according to CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Zuckerberg said:

“In this future, you will be able to teleport instantly as a hologram to be at the office without a commute, at a concert with friends, or in your parent’s living room to catch up.”

While Mark’s choice may have excited many of his brand’s fans, his strategy to create this 3D experience has already caused a reaction from certain netizens. Users will require “augmented reality glasses” to enjoy 3D experiences in the Metaverse, according to Mark.

Project Nazareth

Mark said they were working on an experience termed “Project Nazareth,” which is Meta’s title for its first complete augmented reality glasses through Oculus, a 3D VR headset manufacturing company now owned by Facebook.

But Insider CEO Henry Blodget disagrees with Mark’s plan to introduce VR to the Metaverse. He thinks VR headsets are too burdensome for today’s netizens. After 24 hours in a VR headset, the Wall Street Journal’s Joanna Stern is puzzled by people talking about Marks’ Metaverse. Her experience “does not recommend” VR headsets since they are too bulky and unpleasant.

Meta is expected to invest at least $10 billion this year on its metaverse section, while large IT giants like Microsoft increase their rivalry. According to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, the firm that delivers a seamless experience for consumers may be the only one positioned to lead this new experience.
