Open Metaverse Foundation

AR & VR. Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality engines play an important role in enabling metaverse to be an enthralling virtual experience.

Nonprofit Linux Foundation has created a new organization to provide a space for different industries to collaborate on developing open-source software and standards for an inclusive, global, vendor-neutral and scalable Metaverse.

The Open Metaverse Foundation (OMF) already counts several members, including ChainHub Foundation, Cloud Native Computing Foundation, GenXP, Hyperledger Foundation, LF Edge, LF Networking, OpenSDV, Open Voice Network and Veriken.

From an organizational standpoint, the OMF comprises Foundational Interest Groups (FIGs), each focusing on a different key topic. These are users, transactions, digital assets, simulations and virtual worlds, artificial intelligence (AI), networking, security and privacy, and legal and policy.
