Notes:
The creation of virtual beings spans a broad spectrum, encompassing advanced platforms like Godot, Unity3D, and Unreal for development, detailed animation tools such as Kinect and inverse kinematics for realistic movement, and personalized avatar systems like Animoji and Gravatar. This realm also extends to virtual and extended reality environments with Oculus and WebXR, integrates AI-driven behavior through neural networks and OpenCV, finds its presence in gaming worlds like Minecraft and MMOs, and taps into the digital economy via NFTs, all while paving the way for a broader metaverse where these entities coexist and interact.
