Univers, the software platform that builds Metaverse interoperability solutions, has partnered with VR Connections — an immersive reality management service. Essentially, the partnership’s core aim is to bridge the gap between Metaverses, bringing a cross-platform unity to Web3-focused projects.
Furthermore, the partnership will also ensure that Univers is able to create a Metaverse experience that transcends its platform alone. That is, Univers may now have a wider community of developers and studios to offer its core product offering, including the software development kit (SDK).
Benefits of Metaverse Interoperability
Today, many companies are in competition to take up space in Web3. However, most of these companies only build fragmented digital worlds. Imagine donning a virtual reality VR headset to finally have a feel of the mysterious “Metaverse” everyone is talking about, only to discover you’re actually confined to just one company’s version of the Metaverse.
With the fragmentations causing a major divide, there’s every necessity for interoperability and cross-platform compatibility to be put in place. This is because, failure to do so, will lead to increased entry barriers and regressive wider adoption.
Now, this is exactly where the partnership with VR Connections comes in. The Univers platform tackles this challenge by building the infrastructure to connect between Metaverse platforms, albeit in a seamless way. Offering four core products focused on building bridges between Metaverses within its framework, Univers’ product roster includes:
Univers’s SDK
Univers’s open-source SDK allows both on-chain and off-chain projects to utilize the Univers framework to build blockchain-based experiences that operate across multiple Metaverse networks. The toolbox allows creators with little blockchain expertise to fashion interactive games and experiences.
Avalon
Avalon is the central hub of the Univers platform, which operates as a gateway to Metaverse projects that utilize the framework. Avalon also serves as Univers’ accessible social hub, featuring mini-games, marketplaces, and events that allow users to carry their data across the Univers network.
Univers Consumer Events (UCEs)
UCEs provide a venue and forum to host live events and conferences within the Univers ecosystem. Purpose-built to foster a community around independent creators and upcoming projects, UCEs utilize mixed reality to combine location-based entertainment and digital interaction.
The Univers Foundation
The Foundation is a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) that provides opportunities for developers, creators, and studios to grow through capital investment, mentorship, and assistance. The foundation serves as an incubator that will raise funds through token sales, allowing holders to vote on high-impact developments within Avalon.
“We are really proud to team up with VR Connections prior to the launch of our core product offering,” says Yann Toullec, CEO & Co-Founder at Univers. “The Metaverse can’t exist without interoperability, period. We are thrilled to lead the charge and ensure a digital future with no fragmentation and accessibility for independent creators and users.”
