“…The underlying AR and VR technologies provide a variety of difficulties for the Metaverse; the list of associated challenges is shown in Figure 3. Both technologies are convincing and have the power to affect users' thoughts, feelings, and actions [46,47]. The following areas of risks associated with AR can be identified, including those relating to data breach, psychology, integrity, physical well-being, health, and safety of individuals [46].…”

Cyberspace has continued to change throughout the 1990s and 2000s, when the Internet became widely used. The concept of a massive, integrated, sustainable, and interconnected cyber world is the heart of the metaverse. The aim of the metaverse is to create a digital world that is analogous to the existing world. Thus, the most recent metaverse development is investigated in light of cutting‐edge technologies and metaverse ecosystems. To this end, a pilot survey to provide a first overview of upcoming challenges and opportunities of the metaverse is presented. The results provide researchers with a direction for future study as well as potential applications in the metaverse.

“…Several publications have holistically explored the Metaverse based on research published between 2000 and 2021 (Dincelli and Yayla, 2022;Kim, 2021;Lee et al, 2021;Park and Kim, 2022;Peukert et al, 2022). Others focus on aspects, opportunities, and risks relevant for a specific domain (Inceoglu and Ciloglugil, 2022;Kim, 2021;Peukert et al, 2022). Some conclude that a stringent definition is not possible (Peukert et al, 2022;Xu et al, 2022).…”

“…Others identify aspects for which a consensus exists in the literature (Dincelli and Yayla, 2022) or among practitioners (Schöbel et al, 2023). Researchers disagree on whether the Metaverse is something novel (Kim, 2021;Lee et al, 2021) or merely old wine in new bottles (Park and Kim, 2022;Peukert et al, 2022). Yet the studies share the assumption that the Metaverse is a phenomenon that should be specified in analytical terms, that is, by identifying its properties or elements.…”

The Metaverse has become a buzz-phrase among tech businesses. Facebook's rebranding to Meta is symptomatic of this. Many firms and other actors are trying to shape visions of the Metaverse, leading to confusion about the term's meaning. We use social construction of technology (SCOT) theory to disentangle the conflicting notions proposing that what the Metaverse is and will become relies on the collective sensemaking processes. We point out similarities and differences between various concepts presented in the public media and link them to individual actors' monetary, political, or social motives. We describe the tensions that occur because of the conflicting interests. As the Metaverse is an emerging phenomenon, opportunities exist to reorient it toward humanist values rather than singular interests. However, the complexity of the social processes that shape the Metaverse requires a considerate approach rather than premature conclusions about the Metaverse’s characteristics. The analysis presents the Metaverse as a new, continually evolving sociotechnical phenomenon, and calls for research that explores it as a dynamic, moving target.

“…Metaverse references an immersive three-dimensional digital space, conceptions about its specific nature and organization have changed over time, and more strongly emphasize the evolution from considering the metaverse as an extended version of a single virtual world to a wide network of an infinite number of interconnected worlds. (1) The metaverse is a collective virtual shared space, created by the convergence of virtually enhanced physical reality and physically persistent virtual space, including the sum of all virtual worlds, augmented reality, and the internet. (2) In the future, it is possible that clinical care may be delivered in the metaverse, potentially allowing for remote consultations and treatment of patients.…”

El metaverso es un espacio digital tridimensional inmersivo; las concepciones sobre su naturaleza y organización evolucionado, y cada vez se hace más hincapié en la evolución desde considerar el metaverso como una versión ampliada de un único mundo virtual hasta una amplia red de un número infinito de mundos interconectados. El objetivo de este artículo es describir el potencial del metaverso en la atención médica. Una posible característica de la consulta de un médico en el metaverso podría ser el uso de tecnología de realidad virtual para crear entornos de tratamiento inmersivos y personalizados para los pacientes. El médico también podría utilizar herramientas de realidad virtual para mostrar opciones de tratamiento o procedimientos, o para proporcionar material educativo. Existen varias aplicaciones potenciales del metaverso en medicina, incluido el uso de la realidad virtual y otras tecnologías inmersivas. Algunos ejemplos son: Terapia de exposición en realidad virtual para trastornos de ansiedad; terapia cognitivo-conductual basada en realidad virtual para la depresión; rehabilitación y fisioterapia basadas en realidad virtual; tratamiento del dolor en realidad virtual; y educación y formación en realidad virtual. El metaverso puede permitir un acceso más eficiente y cómodo a la atención, sobre todo para los pacientes que viven en zonas remotas o desatendidas. Estas plataformas contribuirán a experiencias de tratamiento más personalizadas e inmersivas, ya que la tecnología de realidad virtual puede utilizarse para crear entornos y experiencias a medida para los pacientes. De igual forma existe preocupación la privacidad y la seguridad de los pacientes, y los ciberataques.
