As for the design of Oculus Quest, it adopts a wireless design and can interact with virtual reality objects through the left and right hand controllers. At the same time, the corresponding monocular vision can reach a resolution of 1600×1440. It is basically used in an independent operation mode. Through the sensing technology called Insight, it recognizes the body's 6-axis freedom movement.

In this update, Facebook will also port the Oculus Passthrough+ feature originally available on the Oculus Rift S to the Oculus Quest, allowing users to still see the outside world through stereoscopic images while wearing the VR headset. Additionally, Facebook is bringing more VR content compatible with the Oculus Go to the Oculus Quest, thereby increasing the practicality of the Oculus Quest.
