The closest estimate of the metaverse’s requirements came from Moussa Zaghdoud, executive vice-president of the cloud communication business division at Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise. Zaghdoud estimates that to “make worlds come alive virtually we’d need to see broadband speeds of well above 1Gb because of the huge chunks of data to be processed. Latency plays a crucial role as well since response times need to be 10 milliseconds or less for all of it to pan out as intended”.
