For the AR metaverse, IoT serves as your sensory network that brings physical things into the digital realm. It provides context and situational awareness to AR applications and provides triggers for things in the digital and virtual realm to interface with you in the physical world. Whether it is spatial placement of digital things in your field of view, which is something that is already happening with AR systems such as Hololens, an AR object reacting you’re your finger gestures, or triggering a cyberphysical application or function driven off an event occurring in the physical world, the IoT provides that physical-to-cyber bridge.
