Immersive 3D Technologies, Spatial Computing and Visual Perception Algorithms, and Event Modeling and Forecasting Tools on Blockchain-based Metaverse Platforms

Abstract

This paper provides a systematic literature review of studies inves-tigating consumer behavior data, cyber-physical cognitive systems, and geospatial mapping and dynamic routing technologies. The analysis highlights that 3D modeling and geospatial mapping tools, metaverse assets, and cognitive artificial intelligence algorithms further virtual retail experiences. Throughout May 2022, we performed a quantitative literature review of the Web of Science, Scopus, and ProQuest databases, with search terms including “blockchain-based metaverse platforms” + “immersive 3D technologies,” “spatial computing and visual perception algorithms,” and “event modeling and forecasting tools.” As we inspected research published in 2022, only 143 articles satisfied the eligibility criteria. By eliminating controversial findings, outcomes unsubstantiated by replication, too imprecise material, or having similar titles, we decided upon 30, generally empirical, sources. Data visualization tools: Dimensions (bibliometric mapping) and VOSviewer (layout algorithms). Reporting quality assessment tool: PRISMA. Methodological quality assessment tools include: AMSTAR, Distiller SR, MMAT, and ROBIS.
