- Abstract: Since Facebook was renamed Meta, a lot of attention, debate, and exploration
have intensified about what the Metaverse is, how it works, and the possible
ways to exploit it. It is anticipated that Metaverse will be a continuum of
rapidly emerging technologies, usecases, capabilities, and experiences that
will make it up for the next evolution of the Internet. Several researchers
have already surveyed the literature on artificial intelligence (AI) and
wireless communications in realizing the Metaverse. However, due to the rapid
emergence of technologies, there is a need for a comprehensive and in-depth
review of the role of AI, 6G, and the nexus of both in realizing the immersive
experiences of Metaverse. Therefore, in this survey, we first introduce the
background and ongoing progress in augmented reality (AR), virtual reality
(VR), mixed reality (MR) and spatial computing, followed by the technical
aspects of AI and 6G. Then, we survey the role of AI in the Metaverse by
reviewing the state-of-the-art in deep learning, computer vision, and edge AI.
Next, we investigate the promising services of B5G/6G towards Metaverse,
followed by identifying the role of AI in 6G networks and 6G networks for AI in
support of Metaverse applications. Finally, we enlist the existing and
potential applications, usecases, and projects to highlight the importance of
progress in the Metaverse. Moreover, in order to provide potential research
directions to researchers, we enlist the challenges, research gaps, and lessons
learned identified from the literature review of the aforementioned
technologies.
