Despite being able to access the metaverse without some of this equipment, the tools improve the user experience
1 – Device that connects to the internet
First of all, you need to know that to access any virtual environment you will need a device that connects to a network. It's worth a smartphone, desktop, tablet or console, it all depends on which platform you're going to use. For simpler environments, a cell phone will be enough, but for more complex demands, perhaps just a machine with a video card and dedicated processor.

2- Quality Internet
Although web users can download platforms via smartphone or desktop, a stable internet connection is essential for the best experience within the virtual environment. As it is based on a concept of interactivity, in which visitors can talk to touch and move objects, if the internet is not the best, the image will be blurred and the commands will take a while to be responded to. Enthusiasts think that the metaverse will also thrive precisely due to the improvement of the internet caused by 5G technology. Thus, enabling faster connections.
3- Joysticks or gloves
As a remote control, you use the joystick to interact with the objects that are present in the world you are accessing. Using augmented virtual reality allows you to hit a ball in a tennis match in a virtual environment, for example. Companies engaged with the metaverse are still going ahead and already designing sensitive gloves that project the sensitivities of human limbs. If you go ahead, with a glove like this you will be able to pet a puppy in a virtual environment and feel as if you are actually touching it. When in fact the pet is only in the virtual world.
4 – Virtual reality glasses
As mentioned here, to access a virtual environment you will not necessarily need virtual reality glasses, but with the equipment the experience will be much more exciting. As a complement to the joystick, through these glasses you will be able to see the world of the metaverse as it really is. Designed for high definition and optimization of environments and chromatic patterns, anyone wearing VR, as the glasses are also called, will feel like they are inside the environment.

Some platforms, such as the one designed by Meta, Horizon Words, only allow users who have the extension to enter. Virtual Reality glasses from big brands, like their own designed by Meta, has an average value of R$3 thousand. Inaccessible for the current stage of technology in the world.
The idea of metaverse enthusiasts is that web3.0 spreads as quickly as possible so that these devices become increasingly accessible, however, as a large part of the population still does not have access to the internet and the metaverse is moving at a slow pace, It is not yet known when users will have these tools ready.
