Meta Plans to Transform Your Real Space into a Virtual World with Quest

Meta is preparing to launch a new capability that enables users of Quest virtual reality headsets to convert their actual surroundings into an interactive digital environment. This technology functions by scanning a room or space using the cameras and sensors built into the headset, subsequently generating a three-dimensional model that can be integrated into virtual reality experiences. Users can then engage with virtual objects that appear to exist within their real-world space, unlocking a wide range of creative and practical applications. Potential uses include gaming, design, professional training, and remote collaboration. This feature is expected to roll out gradually to Quest users in the coming months, and Meta aims to make virtual reality more accessible and integrated into daily life.
