Recently, in a short conversation with technology blogger Marques Brownlee, Mark Zuckerberg mentioned an interesting part that few people care about when talking about Facebook, which is hardware.
In addition to developing algorithms related to the largest social network on the planet, Facebook also invests in the future of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR).
Mark Zuckerberg appeared at the F8 event in 2017 to demonstrate the future of virtual reality.
The founder of Facebook believes that every 15 years, the world will witness a new technology platform take over.
`The phones in our pockets are pretty cool. Smartphones are now like powerful computers, but that’s not everything. Phones pull users out of the real world with vivid experiences. All
The limitation of phones, tablets or TV screens is that users have to convince their brains that they are standing in front of a `re-enacted` scene, but they are not really `present` there.
`VR and AR will bring users new experiences that are more immersive than focusing on the existing screen. New technology will allow the user’s mind to believe that they are actually in another space.

In the future, Zuckerberg hopes VR glasses will look like fashionable glasses, not a super thick device.
He said, once Facebook has a perfect and really good AR glasses model, they will never need a physical screen in the future.
Mark Zuckerberg did not openly target Apple, but he also admitted that Tim Cook’s company has a similar vision to Facebook about AR and VR.
Previously, dozens of leaked animations showed that Apple is producing its own AR glasses.
The American-born billionaire also revealed that he supports Samsung and for many years has directed other executives at Facebook to use Android, not iOS.
