Facebook wants to turn the Quest into a fitness device
Announced today as part of the Facebook Connect event outlining the companys augmented reality and virtual reality plans for the future, the Move fitness tracker is an attempt by Facebook to get in on the fitness and health tracking craze thats yielded hundreds of millions of dollars and billions in valuation to companies like Peloton and Zwift.
Using the Move feature, Quest wearers can set daily fitness goals, check how many calories have been burned and how long theyve been active while wearing the headset.
The new feature will put Facebooks Quest headsets more in the same realm as fitness hardware and software companies like Tonal, F45, Strava, Zwift, and Peloton.
With the companys new challenges feature thats also rolling out today, Facebook is definitely looking to put the fitness hardware and software startups in the sights of its Quest devices.
