Why Facebook Plans To Bring Virtual Reality To Social Networking?

Facebook recently announced that it has created a social VR (virtual reality) team focused entirely on exploring the future of social interaction in VR. According to the company, VR will enable a new kind of social connection in future – like “the ability for friends who live in different parts of the world to spend time together and feel like they are really there with each other”.  Facebook is looking to deliver “real” social experiences in future and promote virtual reality as the “most social platform”. We believe with its Oculus Rift VR headset now available to pre-order, Facebook is looking to bring VR technology into mainstream and make it part of people’s daily lives, which should create a bigger market for its VR hardware.
