MetaTwin: Synchronizing Physical and Virtual Spaces for Seamless World

Abstract

This paper presents MetaTwin, a collaborative Metaverse platform that supports one-to-one spatiotemporal synchrony between physical and virtual spaces. The users can interact with other users and surrounding IoT devices without being tied to physical spaces. Resource sharing is implemented to allow users to share media, including presentation slides and music. We deploy MetaTwin in two different network environments (i.e., within the US, Korea-US international) and summarize users’ feedback about the experience.
