Meta Platforms:元宇宙目標尚難實現
Meta Platforms(FB.US)互聯互通業務副總裁Dan Rabinovitsj週一在世界移動通信大會(Mobile World Congress)技術活動上表示,家庭網絡和蜂窩網絡尚未爲“元宇宙基礎”做好準備。
元宇宙(metaverse)一詞熱度近期仍非常高,它被炒作爲科技界下一重大變革,雖然真正的元宇宙還不存在,但已經有一些正在進行的早期項目可以讓愛好者深入瞭解並體驗元宇宙“雛形”。Meta旗下的虛擬現實(VR)頭顯被譽爲通往元宇宙沉浸式體驗的重要通道,但不少分析人士稱,這種體驗需要低延遲和更高的上傳和下載速度。Meta多位高管更是表示,如果當今的電信網絡沒有大幅改善,它建立終極“元宇宙”的宏偉抱負可能難以實現。
“我們正在與我們的同事密切合作,思考在創新活動方面的下一步計劃。” Dan Rabinovitsj表示,並補充稱,同時Meta正與蜂窩網絡技術合作夥伴緊密合作。
Rabinovitsj表示:“如果大家仔細觀察通訊行業的創新速度,就會發現與其他行業相比,在這個領域要想走得更快是非常困難的。”“我們試圖改變的事情之一就是創新的技術路徑。”
Rabinovitsj會議上強調:“我們需要圍繞網絡性能開發一種共同的語言。”“實際上,我們非常相信以數字形式呈現的衡量技術是下一階段工作的基礎。”
Meta的創始人兼首席執行官馬克·扎克伯格在當地時間週日的一份聲明中表示:“爲智能眼鏡和VR頭顯創造真正的虛擬世界體驗感,需要在網絡連接性方面取得巨大進步。”扎克伯格表示,這需要“比我們之前看到的任何變化都更大”,並補充稱,像大規模沉浸式視頻流媒體這樣的創新體驗將會帶來全新類型的網絡。
作爲對Meta的迴應,美國通信巨頭AT&T(T.US)執行副總裁David Christopher接受媒體採訪時表示,5G技術的部署速度比4G時代更快,並補充道:“各大運營商的大規模投資正有條不紊進行。”
Christopher表示,網絡技術現在已能夠提供低延遲、穩定的速度和高承載量。Christopher表示:“在接下來的十年中,這一技術只會得到改進和改善,以支持各行各業及各類用途,包括沉浸式體驗和元宇宙構建。”“無論元宇宙如何發展,它都將依賴於許多領域的創新和互通操作性,而5G先進連接技術是一個重要元素。”
