A Unified Framework for Underwater Metaverse with Optical Perception
<|reference_start|>A Unified Framework for Underwater Metaverse with Optical Perception: With the advancement of AI technology and increasing attention to deep-sea exploration, the underwater Metaverse is gradually emerging. This paper explores the concept of underwater Metaverse, emerging virtual reality systems and services aimed at simulating and enhancing virtual experience of marine environments. First, we discuss potential applications of underwater Metaverse in underwater scientific research and marine conservation. Next, we present the architecture and supporting technologies of the underwater Metaverse, including high-resolution underwater imageing technologies and image processing technologies for rendering a realistic virtual world. Based on this, we present a use case for building a realistic underwater virtual world using underwater quantum imaging-generated artificial intelligence (QI-GAI) technology. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the underwater Metaverse framework in simulating complex underwater environments, thus validating its potential in providing high-quality, interactive underwater virtual experiences. Finally, the paper examines the future development directions of underwater Metaverse, and provides new perspectives for marine science and conservation.<|reference_end|>
