On October 28, the CEO and the founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, announced Meta. Meta is Facebook’s new brand name which focuses on bringing metaverse into the real world. Meta claims that it will help people connect, find communities and grow businesses.
The metaverse allows people to virtually meet, work, and play using a VR headset, glasses, or any other device that is seen in Sci-Fi movies. It will be projected to the physical world bringing the experiences of hybrid online social services to real life.
Meta plans to ramp up their hardware industry, introducing devices like Portal video-calling devices, Ray-Ban smart glasses, and Oculus virtual-reality headsets. In addition, Meta has launched a project called Project Cambria, a high-end VR headset featuring with latest technologies for the best user experience.
Besides VR headsets, Meta also announced the code name of their first fully-AR (Augmented reality) capable smart glasses, codenamed Project Nazare.
Meta’s ambitions still have a long way to go; it is unknown when the tech will be widely available for consumers. Zuckerberg promises us that the tech will be in our hands within a few years.
