As the technology becomes more sophisticated, realistic and immersive, the virtual ecosystem grows more robust, beckoning, almost compelling, your presence and participation in the boundless digital universe for purposes professional, personal and social.

Your digital presence is enabled by a digital recreation of you, your digital avatar unlocking a whole range of new possibilities, previously unimaginable, for you in the digital cosmos. Representing you, your avatar could virtually manage your appointments and conduct meetings on your behalf, infact, several at a time. Your digital twin could do a lot more in the virtual space like take charge of payments, digital asset ownership, access to virtual spaces and events in addition to handling memberships and tickets to these virtual dos.

Virtual avatars starting out as entertaining gaming tools, representing the user identity as an animated character or a caricature, no longer remain constrained to the gaming arena. Your avatar could now be a true representation of you mirroring your gestures, expressions and physicality, duplicating your intelligence, personality and charisma. Your digital double could really be a true rendition of you with your vision and values.

Imagine, not being limited by the body, travelling through time, cultures and distances instantly via your digital avatar … not fantasy or science fiction anymore. And the cherry on the cake is you immortalized, with a digital afterlife till virtual eternity! A chance to leave behind a legacy that outlives you and be treasured by your future generations.

From being understood as the descent of a deity to the earth to being used as a digital representation that a person chooses as his or her persona in the digital space, Avatar most certainly has established its importance.
