As reported in a Re/Code publication, at the Code/Media conference in , the chief officer, Chris Cox, revealed that the giant has ambitions in the field of Virtual Reality. “I mean, virtual reality is pretty cool. We are working on VR applications,” he told editorial board member Peter Kafka of Re/Code. “You realize, when you're inside, that you're seeing the future, and it's going to be awesome.

When you're in Facebook, you just send these little coman experience – a photo, a video, a thought," said Cox, adding that with VR one could send a "fuller picture." When asked if the general public will be able to produce virtual reality material, Cox answered in the affirmative. "You will too. And Beyonce will."

He didn't reveal much about exactly how users will produce footage, which raises questions as it would require multiple cameras and a particularly time-consuming process. . He also did not present a time frame, other than to say that this will be delayed, as "we are still a long way from everyone having such headsets."
