Today, we’re opening up the Meta Quest operating system to third-party hardware makers, creating a more open computing platform for the metaverse. This move will give developers a larger ecosystem to build for and offer consumers more choices. The Meta Horizon OS combines core mixed reality technologies with social features, allowing for a new generation of hardware devices. Leading technology companies like ASUS and Lenovo are already working on new mixed reality headsets built on this platform. The ecosystem will also include a new spatial app framework and a more open app ecosystem for developers. This step signifies a major leap towards making mixed reality more accessible to a wider audience.
