The document notes that currently, industry, academia, and research institutions have not reached consensus on the definition of metaverse, with some capital and enterprises hyping the metaverse concept for speculation, causing it to deviate significantly from actual value and constraining industry development to some extent. Accelerating the development of foundational standards for metaverse terminology and reference architecture, as well as industry application standards in fields such as industrial manufacturing and communications, will help unify consensus among all parties, reduce duplicate investment costs, and create synergy for advancing industry development.
