The metaverse represents the next evolution of the internet — an interconnected network of persistent 3D virtual worlds focused on immersive, real-time experiences. Realizing this vision requires immense technological advances, especially in semiconductors, to power these immersive digital realities.
Semiconductors and Compute Power
Semiconductors are the heart of digital electronics and crucial for making the metaverse a reality. Modern semiconductors can include billions of transistors. Manufacturing these chips requires complex processes for growing wafers, generating transistor features, cutting chips, and packaging them for end products [1]. The evolution of semiconductors is accelerating chip innovation and streamlining these manufacturing processes.
