Meta Connect 2024 is kicking off today, with CEO Mark Zuckerberg just moments away from making what hopes to be a big announcement, possibly even the thoroughly leaked Quest 3S.
Starting at 10AM PT / 1PM ET (local time here), Zuckerberg is set to take the stage as he shares the latest developments in mixed reality, AI and wearables. Meta is hosting its big keynotes over on the Meta for Developers Facebook page, which we embedded below:
You can also watch it in VR via Horizon Worlds, which is set to be stereoscopic 3D livestream, which VR Oasis Editor and resident VR video producer at Connect ‘ElnarVR’ tells us will be “a window onto the stage at 4K60” unlike years past.
The official program says we’ll hear about how Meta is “building towards the next computing platforms and get a first look at new products and features that will deliver the future of human connection.”
Outside of the big (likely juicy) keynote from Zuckerberg, there’s slated to be another massive developer keynote presented by Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth, VP of Product Management Aigerim Shorman, Senior Director Engineering Rachad Alao, VP of Meta Horizon OS and Quest Mark Rabkin, and Chief Product Officer Chris Cox.
We’re also hoping to learn more about the previously teased AR prototype device, which Zuckerberg said in June was “almost ready” to show off.
On top of it all (it is a developer conference, right?) there will be a ton of developer sessions throughout the day, which we’ll be sticking around for, since we’re here live at Connect 2024. Make sure to check in for all the latest in XR reveals!
Update: Added info on Horizon Worlds viewing, thanks to ElnarVR!
