Facebook users who share a message, photo or video in the future could be seeing their experiences through a virtual-reality headset.
You ll do it. Beyoncé will do it, said Chris Cox, Facebook s Chief Product Officer during Re/code s media and technology conference on Tuesday.
Cox told Re/code that the company is working on virtual-reality apps, but did not get into the details. It s a technology that would allow social media users to send a fuller immersive picture of what they re doing, he said.
In March, the social media company purchased Oculus VR, the creators of a virtual reality headset for gaming, for $2 billion.
But it will be a while before users experience Facebook through virtual reality.
We re a long way away from everybody having those headsets, Cox said.
