Facebook Spaces and Oculus Rooms launches Horizon, a Virtual World.The Horizon virtual world set for a beta launch in 2020 represents a new initiative for the Oculus virtual reality unit of the leading social network.
True hand-based input for VR will unlock new mechanics for VR developers and creators alike. Hand tracking on Quest will let people be more expressive in VR and connect on a deeper level in social experiences. Not only will the current community of VR enthusiasts and early adopters benefit from more natural forms of interaction, hand tracking on Quest will also reduce the barriers of entry to VR for people who may not be familiar or comfortable with gaming controllers.
Even better, your hands are always with you and always on—you don’t have to grab a controller, keep it charged, or pair it with the headset to jump into VR. From entertainment use cases to education and enterprise, the possibilities are massive.
SAN FRANCISCO: Facebook said on Wednesday (Sep 25) it will launch a virtual social community where users of its Oculus headgear can "explore new places" and "create their own new experiences."Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced that Oculus’ standalone VR headset the Oculus Quest will receive controller-free hand tracking support in early 2020. "This technology approximates the shape of your hand and creates a set of 3D points to accurately represent your hand and finger movement in VR."During the Oculus Connect 6 presentation, Zuckerberg points out that just 6 months ago VR required a complicated array of external equipment but, with this coming update, jumping into immersive VR experiences will legitimately only require a VR headset, in the case of the Oculus Quest.“The hardware is getting out of the way and with each step we’re getting to a more immersive and natural experience,” said Zuckerberg.
