Facebook plans 'enterprise edition' of VR headsets

While it's not necessarily surprising that Facebook is looking to expand the enterprise side of its VR business nearly every major headset maker has been trying to woo business users it's telling the planned enterprise editions are for the Oculus Quest and Oculus Go, both of which are standalone headsets that don't require a PC.

Likewise, Oculus Quest is a self-contained headset that also incorporates positional tracking so you can move around your surroundings freely.

Now, it seems Facebook is hoping these all-in-one headsets will appeal to businesses, which may want to implement virtual reality, but don't necessarily want to deal with the hassle of external trackers or high-end PCs. Oculus Quest also has an advantage over other headsets in that you can move around freely without buying a pricey wireless adapter or dorky VR backpack.
