Connected Church News: Week 5, November 2022 – Meta announces new protection tools for Teens on Instagram & Facebook

Meta released an interesting announcement about an app that they are adding into Meta quest that
integrates VR virtual reality into live sports. The app is called Xtadium with an X in it instead of S. So I
guess you call it Xtadium. Tough brand name. So
what the app does is it gives you a feeling of sitting in
the front row of a real life sports game.
So you will feel like with your headset on, even though you’re at home, you will feel like you’re actually in
the front row of the stadium. You can watch
the game, the real game, like live game, and you can watch
the audience and you know all of that with your avatar. It’s an integrated hybrid experience of real life
footage and Metaverse coming together. So an interesting application, anything that combine
s two things,
sports and news, is going to be adopted very well by the audience audience. That’s what we’ve seen in
history.
So let’s see if this helps Meta VR move forward.
