The metaverse has become the new stage for video games, shopping, work and fashion shows. Now it is the turn of education and learning for girls and boys with the WinkyVerse metaverse.
The launch is scheduled for early 2023. However it already has the WINKIES token available for purchase.
The WinkyVerse project began its gestation in 2017 at the École Polytechnique, one of the most renowned engineering schools in France. It is conceived as a metaverse to motivate and prepare children in an entertaining and practical way.
WinkyVerse has the participation and support of Sebastien Borget, COO & co-founder of The Sandbox.
What does the Winkyverse consist of?
WinkyVerse is the first educational ecosystem that combines six of the most promising technologies: robotics, artificial intelligence, programming, games, augmented reality and blockchain, as detailed on its official website.
The WinkyVerse is made up of four components that will be available to children, as well as content and video game creators.
Winky Robot
Its first product is an educational and evolutionary robot called Winky, which is already used daily by thousands of families in Europe to teach children.
WinkyPlay
WinkyPlay is the section where children will have access to many fun and educational games created by the best video game programmers, which will teach various disciplines of knowledge such as artificial intelligence, mathematics, English and virtual reality, among many others.
WinkyMarker
In this section, artists or gamers will have a 3D editing system to create their personalized works of the Winky robot, turn them NFT and sell them in different markets.
WinkyVerse
It is an open 3D world where players, besides creating, will be able to monetize their own educational games, all through their own WINKIES cryptocurrency that will be the only usable one.
