Horizon Workrooms is a virtual meeting space developed by Facebook that works across both virtual reality and the web. In order to create a more engaging virtual experience, Facebook used features like the mixed-reality desk and keyboard tracking, hand tracking, remote desktop streaming, video conferencing integration, spatial audio, and the new Oculus Avatars. The beta version of this VR app is available for free to download on Oculus Quest 2 in countries where Quest 2 is supported. Learn more here.
