According to Foresight News, Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Culture has launched the Cultural Universe, a metaverse built on Oracle's Hyperledger Fabric 2.5 blockchain technology, to celebrate the country's National Day. The metaverse is developed by droppGroup's Generative Media Intelligence (GMI) artificial intelligence (AI) system, droppPhygital.
The Cultural Universe aims to showcase Saudi Arabia's rich cultural heritage and promote the country's creative industries. By utilizing blockchain technology, the platform ensures secure and transparent transactions, as well as providing a decentralized environment for users to interact and engage with the content. The use of AI technology by droppPhygital further enhances the user experience, offering personalized and immersive experiences within the metaverse.
This initiative by the Ministry of Culture highlights the growing interest in blockchain technology and its potential applications in various sectors, including culture and creative industries. As more organizations explore the possibilities of blockchain and metaverse platforms, the Cultural Universe serves as an example of how these technologies can be used to promote cultural heritage and foster innovation.
