The University of Glasgow, Stanford University, and New Mexico State are already using Quest headsets to educate students.
Meta is bringing its enterprise level Quest services to the education sector, the social media giant announced on April 15.
The company’s Quest virtual reality (VR) headsets have become “by far the most popular extended reality (XR) headsets on the market” according to Statista. The sector is expected to reach an installed user base of more than 34 million units by the end of 2024.
If that prediction remains true, the VR sector will have demonstrated a compound annual growth rate of approximately 27.3% since 2020 when, according to Statista, the installed VR user base was about 14.2 million.
