​What is the Metaverse? with Tom Ffiske
Tom Ffiske is a bestselling author with his book "The Metaverse: A Professional Guide: An expert's guide to virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and immersive technologies".

​He has been following the immersive technology sector closely since 2016 and writes and publishes about it at Immersive wire. A newsletter and platform on everything related to VR, AR with the aim of keeping the industry and interested parties informed of the latest developments.

​​Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
In other words, when can digital reality affect physical reality? That is what the DIGIREAL partnership is studying in the field of digital humans, digital social and digital twins.

Questions that arise in the research are:

• What is the application of a digital human in the field of education and interaction?
• What is the metaverse and how do people interact in it?
• Can you have meaningful lives in a digital reality?
• Can you build a simulation that can grasp the complexity of reality to organize cities more effectively, for example;
• And above all; how do you build such a digital reality?

​We would like to discover answers to this in the coming years. And we can use your help with that. That is why DIGIREAL organizes various lunch meetings. During these sessions, we will delve deeper into the consequences of contemporary technological developments.
