MetaSea was born as a pilot project that won 2nd place in the national 5G competition promoted by the Ministry of Economic Development (MISE), in collaboration with the Naval League of Acitrezza, the University of Catania, and baxenergy.
MetaSea is a Virtual Marine Museum that allows visitors to explore in VR the seabed and interact with the marine biodiversity and archaeological artifacts.
The project aims to promote innovative projects that encourage research, development, and experimentation of solutions using emerging technologies such as 5G.
Through the fusion of technology and the desire to amaze and engage, MetaSea, the most captivating virtual marine museum, was born.
We used advanced technology and collaborated with professional divers to capture 8K and 360° images and videos. Through photogrammetry, we transformed these visuals into interactive 3D models, ensuring realism and interactivity.
The virtual museum and 3D assets were meticulously designed with a captivating sci-fi aesthetic to maximize engagement.
Leveraging Unreal Engine, a cutting-edge gaming graphics engine, we created an application that utilizes real-time photorealistic rendering technologies. This allowed us to develop a highly immersive and interactive 3D environment with top quality, while seamlessly integrating VR capabilities.
Through our partnership with Nvidia, we ensured compatibility across all devices, including those without powerful GPUs, thanks to the revolutionary 5G technology.
The result is an exciting virtual underwater adventure that inspires, informs, and engages visitors, providing a unique and unforgettable experience.
Through the power of VR, visitors can dive into the the underwater environment, discovering ancient archeological artifacts and marine life like never before.
It’s an innovative and educational experience that combines technology, archeology, and biology.
Winner of 2nd place in the national 5G Call for Proposals promoted by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development
