In 2014 Facebook bought the virtual reality pathfinder Oculus VR, which cost $2 billion. Since then it has been thriving in this sphere. It let out a few versions of the product, including the Oculus Rift S, augmented reality gaming headset, worth $399, introduced in 2019. Augmented reality (or AR) refers to a technology that adds digital images to real-world objects.

The first products by Facebook were criticized a great deal due to feeling unnatural. Nevertheless, Zuckerberg, the CEO of the company, claims that despite this, it is going to be the most social technology ever. He also believes that Augmented reality products might help people live where they like to and work remotely, having jobs anywhere on the planet.
