Meta hopes that people will use the high-end virtual reality headset to work and play in the still-elusive place called the Metaverse.
The Meta Quest Pro headset has high-resolution sensors that let people see mixed virtual and augmented reality in full color, as well as eye tracking and so-called "natural facial expressions" that mimic the wearer's facial movements so their virtual character looks natural.
Meta is in the middle of a corporate transformation that will take years to complete. It wants to evolve from a provider of social platforms to a dominant power in a virtual reality construct called the metaverse.
The metaverse is a virtual environment where people can virtually "enter" rather than just looking at it on a screen. It will take years for the company's plans to pay off.
Meta knows that virtual reality won't be enough to make the metaverse mainstream. It is setting office and home office.
Meta is positioning the new Meta Quest Pro headset as an alternative to using a laptop. It's still a stretch for businesses to operate in the metaverse.
The metaverse avatars have legs, but they have been missing since their debut last year.
