The International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) has announced the launch of its fully operational metaverse, initially designed for activities such as immersive training courses for forensic investigations.
Unveiled at Interpol’s 90th General Assembly in New Delhi, the INTERPOL Metaverse is described as the “first Metaverse designed specifically for law enforcement worldwide.”
Among other things, the platform will also help law enforcement agencies around the world interact with each other through avatars, according to the announcement.
Metaverse is a common name for a future vision of an immersive internet where virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) headsets are touted to play a major role in online experiences, potentially even replacing some real-world activities. .
