Meta Quest Platform

The Meta Quest Platform is a virtual and augmented reality software development kit (SDK) and operating system environment for developing application software for the Meta Quest line of devices released by Meta Platforms. Initially developed for the embedded operating system on the Oculus Rift and Oculus Rift S, the platform runs on the Android operating system since the release of the Oculus Go in 2018.

History

The platform was first developed by Oculus VR for the embedded operating system on the Oculus Rift DK1 (Development Kit 1), which was released to developers in 2012.

Development of the software platform accelerated following the March 2014 acquisition of Oculus VR (now the Reality Labs division of Meta). Under Facebook, Oculus VR collaborated with Samsung to develop the Android-based Samsung Gear VR headset, with the Oculus VR division developing the necessary application software, the Oculus Mobile SDK, tracking sensor firmware, and optimized Android and the required GPU drivers for virtual reality.[1][2] The development of the software parlayed into Facebook's own plans for VR headset development. Oculus Go, the first Oculus device to use Android and the company's first standalone VR device, was released on May 1, 2018. Apps and games made for the Rift headsets were backwards-compatible with the Oculus Quest.

Community use

In addition, the entire source for the Rift DK1 was released to the public in September 2014, including the firmware, schematics, and mechanicals for the device. The firmware is released under a simplified BSD license, while the schematics and mechanicals are released under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.[3]

In October 2021, Facebook released an update to the Oculus Go which can be sideloaded to unlock "full root access" to the device hardware. This update, which is irreversible and blocks further OTA updates, is supposed to keep devices operational for users even after official Facebook cloud infrastructure for the device goes offline.[4]

Features

Supported software

The Oculus Go was released with Oculus Gallery, Oculus Video, Oculus TV, Oculus Venues and Oculus Rooms preinstalled. Rooms was discontinued on October 25, 2019.[5] Gradually, support for Oculus Go-compatible apps was discontinued. Other notable non-game apps for the platform include ESPN, Facebook Watch, YouTube VR, Fandango, Firefox Reality, Netflix, Pluto TV, Red Bull TV, Sling TV and Within. Popular social apps include Horizon Worlds, VRChat and Roblox.

Furthermore, even though the Oculus Go and subsequent headsets are standalone devices, the Oculus Quest and subsequent devices also support the option to activate "Meta Quest Link" (formerly known as "Oculus Link") to play PC-dependent VR games via cable link. In April 2021, Oculus released "Air Link" to allow for wireless connection with PC for PC-dependent VR games.
