Rumors of the metaverse’s death overseas may have been a bit premature, even as headset-maker Pico seems to be in the doldrums of a rather anticlimactic year in VR.
All that metaverse tech — whatever that term means at this point — will get a big connectivity boost thanks to federal regulators.

Watching the Meta Quest 3 being announced by Meta made me realize something – the hardware available for virtual, augmented and mixed reality is finally catching up with the big idea pitches everyone had about this concept called the “metaverse” a couple of years ago.
Meta’s been questing around for a new vision for its VR, and it’s finally arrived. At Meta’s 2023 Connect conference, the company introduced the Meta Quest 3, a mixed-reality VR headset.
