This week Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg showed off several prototypes of head-mounted displays (HMDs) the company is currently developing. Each is a proof-of-concept for various features that comprise the virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality experience. For example, there’s a headset with a super-bright display, one with high-resolution optics, one that’s very thin, and so on. If you could combine all of the features in the various devices, you’d have a true next-generation product.Sadly, all of them feature experimental technology, and none are even close to being available. Zuckerberg said they’re part of the company’s work on a “visual Turing test.” The goal is a headset that produces visuals so realistic that nobody could tell if they’re real or virtual.
