The next virtual reality headset from Meta will be on display at the company's conference. The announcement was made in front of the Joe Rogan Experience on the streaming service.

He said that the new headset will have features like eye- tracking and face- tracking. The headset is designed to capture users' facial expressions and have them replicated on their avatars in real time to enhance non- verbal communication. The headset that Meta will launch in October will have some mixed reality features.

The final consumer version of the high-end headset that Meta teased at last year's Connect conference is expected to launch in October. According to a report from last month, the upcoming headset for virtual reality will be called Meta Quest Pro.

The photo is called Project Cambria.

The fact that virtual reality canunlock a sense of being in the presence of another person was emphasized by Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

It has been criticized for hacky graphics, so claims of the next virtual reality headset capturing facial expressions will be put to the test.

The price of the game was raised a few weeks ago. The upcoming headset will be much more expensive than $400, because it is a big step above the first one, according to Mark.
