Meta Quest

The Meta Quest, initially the Oculus Quest until 2022, is a line of virtual reality headsets with augmented reality capabilities produced by Reality Labs, a division of Meta Platforms. The first-generation Oculus Quest was developed by Oculus (then a brand of Facebook, now a division of Meta Platform known as Reality Labs) and released on May 21, 2019. Since then, Facebook (now Meta Platforms) has released new Quest models and Quest OS (now Horizon OS) updates. As of February 2023, over 20 million total Quest headsets have been sold.

Summary
Similar to its predecessor, Oculus Go, the Quest line is a standalone device, that can run games and software wirelessly under the Android-based Quest operating system. It supports positional tracking with six degrees of freedom, using internal sensors and an array of cameras in the front of the headset rather than external sensors, and supports hand tracking. The line also supports "Oculus Link", a feature that allows the Quest to be connected to a computer via USB, enabling use with Oculus Rift-compatible software and games. It was the first device from Meta to support augmented reality via "Passthrough", which shows a view from the cameras when the user exits their designated boundary area known as "Guardian". Since the Meta Quest 3, Quest models have supported color passthrough.

The Quest series is the largest headset platform for virtual and augmented reality in the world as of 2024.
