  Along with the considerable growth of emerging technologies (such as artificial intelligence and big data, internet of things, blockchain, cloud computing, etc.) and expansion of their application in people’s everyday life, one of the technological concepts which has received more attention recently is the Metaverse or meta-universe. Metaverse as a virtual world is based on Virtual Reality technology and simulates environments, objects, people and their communications in a 3D space and provides a near-reality experience known as immersive experience for users. One of the contexts which is noticeably affected by Metaverse is education. Using VR and Metaverse, we can cope with many existing educational challenges such as space and time limitations, lack of sufficient raw materials, difficulties of equipment maintenance, etc. using cost-effective and low-risk solutions. In this paper, Mechaverse, the Iran’s first domain-specific metaverse of mechanical engineering is introduced which is designed and implemented to provide laboratory courses and skill workshops related to physics and mechanics. Afterwards, necessary tools for development of Mechaverse are described and some defined practical courses and the mechanisms of accessing and using them are discussed. Manuscript profile
