Digital copies of its users, in order to build a realistic metaverse, will be created in Meta (formerly Facebook). This was stated by the owner of the company Mark Zuckerberg. The media mogul intends to invest about 10 billion US dollars over 10 years in developing his concept. And the implementation of plans will begin with the formation of an immersive avatar of people, according to ferra.ru. This is evidenced by a number of new technology patents that Meta has filed with the US Patent and Trademark Office. At the same time, many of them involve the use of biometrics: eye tracking and pupil movement, facial expressions, face rotation, body posture, and even nose pinching. As the publication notes, the collection of biometric data of users will be carried out using sensors on the headset installed on computers.
