Metamobility: Connecting Future Mobility With the Metaverse

[摘要] The metaverse is a perpetual, immersive, and shared digital universe that is linked to but is beyond the physical reality, and this emerging technology is attracting enormous attention from different industries. In this article, we define the first holistic realization of the metaverse in the mobility domain, coined as metamobility. We present our vision of what metamobility will be and describe its basic architecture. We also propose two use cases, tactile live maps and metaempowered advanced driver-assistance systems (ADASs), to demonstrate how metamobility will benefit and reshape future mobility systems. Each use case is discussed from the perspective of the technology evolution, future vision, and critical research challenges. Finally, we identify multiple concrete open research issues.
