Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Culture has announced the Cultural Universe initiative, which aims to give people an insight into the country's historical past.
Cultural Universe will serve as a meta-universe to host #VR headsets developed in partnership with droppGroup and Oracle.
The platform, which utilizes droppGroup's Generative Media Intelligence #AI solution and Oracle's Hyperledger Fabric 2.5 infrastructure, was officially unveiled on February 22 and timed to coincide with Saudi Arabia's National Day.
To experience the meta universe, visit the official website, which features content in English and Arabic (narration is only available in the latter language).
While enjoying the first-person gameplay, the user navigates the central passage and encounters various historical events along the way.
For example, an orchestral performance was broadcast on February 22, 2024.
