Facebook’s annual F8 conference is today.
As well as general Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp news, it’s expected the company will share news about the upcoming Oculus Quest and Rift S VR headsets.
The main keynote will be livestreamed. It begins at 10AM US Pacific Time, which is 5PM in the UK, 1PM US Eastern Time.
This is when major product announcements, both hardware and software, are generally made.
If you don’t have time to watch don’t worry- we’ll be bringing you all the VR & AR news from the event.
From Inside VR (Oculus Go / Gear VR)
If you own an Oculus Go or Samsung Gear VR, you can watch a live 180 degree video broadcast of the conference. It will be available through the Oculus Venues app.
Note that you need an active Facebook account to use Venues.
Like with other Venues events, you should be able to see and talk to other Go / Gear VR users in a virtual audience if you want.
Unfortunately Venues isn’t available on the Oculus Rift, or any PC VR headset.
In Browser / Virtual Desktop / BigScreen
If you don’t own an Oculus Go or Samsung Gear VR, you can watch the event as a regular stream on Facebook Live.
It will be available at the following link: facebook.com/FacebookforDevelopers/live
If you want to watch it in your PC VR headset, you can use Virtual Desktop. Or if you want to watch it with friends or strangers in VR, you’ll find plenty of open chatrooms in BigScreen.
