It's fully customized for VR and AR.
With support for multiple cameras and technology like fixed foliated rendering, when the end result is a more immersive experience with crisper graphics, more dynamic environments and ultimately, just a more realistic feeling of presence.

The new controllers deliver a better feeling of hand presence and stronger physical feedback.
And for apps that don't use our full hand tracking This is gonna make a better experience all around.
We've also been making a lot of software updates to, for example, you know a lot of people have been using VR for fitness.
It's probably one of the most fun ways to get in some quick cardio and I mean beat Sabre is is a bit more motivating than a treadmill most mornings.
So we built in a system level fitness tracker that helps you keep tabs on just how much exercise you're getting while playing some of your favorite titles.
It's called Oculus.
Let's move.
And it lets you set VR fitness goals and track them across different games and apps.
