Meta's CTO, Andrew Bosworth, believes wireless compute units are not the solution for standalone VR gaming on Meta's Quest headsets.
Bosworth explains that wireless compute pucks still add weight to the headset due to the battery, and increase cost and complexity.
Meta is focused on building affordable consumer products, with its latest Quest 3S priced at $300.
While Meta's Orion prototype incorporates a wireless compute unit, Bosworth emphasizes the high cost and limited usage in delivering less immersive graphics.
