Meta Platforms Inc (FB.O) will make it easier for brands to run three-dimensional ads on its Facebook and Instagram social media platforms
through a new partnership with an ecommerce technology firm.The integration with VNTANA will allow brands to upload the 3D models of their
products to Facebook and Instagram and easily convert them into ads, VNTANA said on Thursday in a press release.The move is a stepping stone
into advertising in the metaverse, said VNTANA Chief Executive Ashley Crowder, referring to the futuristic idea of a collection of virtual
worlds that can be accessed through devices such as headsets, Reuters reported.Meta has staked its future on contributing to the building of
the metaverse, which it has said could take up to a decade to be realized.Meta previously partnered with augmented reality (AR) companies
Modiface and PerfectCorp to help beauty and cosmetic brands more easily run 3D and AR advertising.The metaverse is basically the spatial
internet,& Crowder said
&It is a whole world of possibility that starts with having the right 3D models of your products.Facebook and Instagram users who see a 3D
ad while browsing on their desktop or phone can interact with an image of a handbag, for instance, and move it around to view the item from
all angles.The post Meta inks partnership for 3D ads in step toward the metaverse first appeared on Ariana News.
