Natural History Museum is preparing for entering the metaverse, and they hope that the description of ancient animals can be accurately presented.
Divine Wolf and Sabretooth Tiger may have become extinct, but now scientists are bringing them back to life, not the kind of film and television effects in "Jurassic Park ", but in the metaverse.

Metaverse Museum
Scientists are thinking about how to build museums in the metaverse. This technology can enable people from all over the world to enter the metaverse museum and gain a very strong learning experience.
Currently, those interested in can view these resurrected species through the technology of the metaverse. Dr. Matt Davis and his team at the Los Angeles Museum of Natural History achieved this goal, working with researchers and designers at the University of Southern California, to create more than 12 new, precise virtual models of ice age animals.
Accuracy of the meta-universe
The scientific team realized that there were no precisely described Ice Age animals in the meta-universe and they wanted to correct this error. So they collected the latest paleontology research and created some creatures using the metaverse.
These models are built in blocky, low polygon style. is mainly because the work is still in progress and cannot fully understand the entire appearance of the animals. At the same time, some glaciers can only find some organs, so people's imagination has to fill the gap.

But this is the beauty of these metacosmic animals. Scientists can reproduce what they know, and all that is left is an outline until one day people can be completely sure, fill in.
William Swartout, Ph.D., Chief Technology Officer of the Institute of Innovation Technology at the University of Southern California, said: "The innovation of this approach is that allows us to create scientifically accurate works of art for the metacosmos without having to be overly obsessed with the details that we still lack reliable fossil evidence. "
Scientists hope that through this part of the metacosmos animals, normal people can better understand ancient art.
Metaverse Museum and Ancient Art
Emily Lindsey is the author of this study: "Ancient art has a great influence on the way the public and even scientists understand fossil life. Many ancient arts are considered afterwards and are not subject to strict scrutiny like other scientific research. This may lead to extinct animals being spread for generations in mass media and academic publications, and the poor phenomenon of their original appearance cannot be reconstructed. "

Ancient art is an important part of the research on paleontology of . This is why it is decided to publish all the scientific research and artistic decisions that make animal models, which will make it easier for other scientists and ancient artists to criticize and develop ancient art.
Scientists point out that it is important to admit that we do not understand the appearance of these animals. "We can accurately depict Shasta's furry fur, because paleontologists have discovered the complete skeleton of the species, and its hair and skin are still well preserved. But for mastodon , paleontologists have found only a few strands of hair."
hope the Metaverse Museum will bring better and more accurate ancient art to everyone.

If the user has Snapchat, you can scan the snapshot code and you will see saber-toothed tiger, dire wolf, Shasta Landlaid, Colombian mammoth , American mastodon , western camels, ancient bison and other animals.
