The design of the headset is a footling different to the Oculus Quest two. There's a more goggle-inspired design, and a crest that's not also dissimilar from that on the PSVR. The videos also only show a single strap, skipping the one that typically goes over a user's head

The get-go (above) shows off a user customizing the look of their avatar, which is in itself not that impressive. Still, the key affair to note is that she's scrolling through everything without the assistance of a controller, and the headset seems to be reacting to her facial expressions.

In other words it seems to confirm that the Oculus Quest Pro will come with a agglomeration of external sensors to keep itself enlightened of everything you lot are doing.

In that location are also two videos of the headset beingness used in a more professional person environment, in terms of user collaboration (something Facebook has been pushing for years) and showcases some new smaller controllers that appear to be in some sort of dock or wireless charging station.

And then while the Quest Pro does seem to take body tracking features, information technology should even so accept some sort of controller for those who need them. Presumably it's for the kind of work that needs a little more precision that only the controller'due south built-in sensors can offer.

The fourth video shows off what is now a VR archetype, Beat out Saber, confirming that the Pro in Oculus Quest Pro doesn't necessarily mean professional. There'due south yet room to accept fun with friends.

Even so, with a Facebook Connect taking place subsequently this week on Oct 28, it hopefully means we don't have very long to wait to discover out.
