Several years back, Oculus became the world’s first kickstarter-funded virtual reality headset. The project was conceived by then-19-year-old Palmer Luckey, who had always been fascinated with the concept of VR. Since its crowdfunding campaign launched, Oculus’s success has skyrocketed in just a few short years. In fact, it became so popular that Facebook acquired the company for $2 billion in 2014. (According to Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, he actually paid $3 billion, but that’s a story for another post.)
As with most high-tech devices, Oculus users are both extremely excited to get a taste of VR capabilities while simultaneously anxious to see what the future has in store. Reviews for the Oculus Rift are overwhelmingly positive, but fans are eager to see the next generation VR headset.
In 2012, a 19-year-old self-taught engineer by the name of Palmer Luckey launched a kickstarter campaign for his VR headset, Oculus Rift. When American game programmer John Carmack showed interest in buying one, Luckey simply gave him a prototype. Since that moment, Oculus’s success boomed, and the startup company wound up raising $2.4 million. Then, just a few years later in 2014, Facebook acquired the company for a cool $2 billion.
