When Facebook paid more than $2 billion to buy the much hyped virtual reality startup Oculus in 2014, CEO Mark Zuckerberg wasn’t shy about positioning VR as the world’s next big technological phenomenon.
“Virtual reality was once the dream of science fiction. But the internet was also once a dream, and so were computers and smartphones,” he wrote at the time. “One day, we believe this kind of immersive, augmented reality will become a part of daily life for billions of people.”
