据TechCrunch称，Facebook在虚拟现实领域有着巨大的投资，最主要的是它对Oculus的所有权，但这家社交媒体巨头已经证实，它也在研发增强现实眼镜。

“是啊！Facebook的增强现实主管Ficus Kirkpatrick对TechCrunch评论道：“我们当然在努力。”我们正在**五金产品。我们正在继续这个。我们希望看到这些眼镜成为现实，我认为我们希望在帮助实现这一目标方面发挥自己的作用。”

对于该公司来说，这是一个有趣的愿景。该公司因一系列安全漏洞而受到攻击，这些漏洞包括数百万用户的个人信息。Facebook门户是该公司第一款以Facebook名义**的内部硬件设备，因此在科技界的反响相当冷淡。考虑到该公司劣质的业绩记录，很难想象人们排队在家里安装Facebook摄像头，宣传它可以在房间的任何地方跟踪你。

增强现实眼镜将要求在你的生活中有一个更加个人化的镜头，而Facebook将不得不努力赢得这样做所需的信任（假设技术发展到消费产品可行的程度）。

这就是说，一段时间以来，**真正的增强现实眼镜一直是Facebook的目标。在2016年的F8会议上，首席执行官马克·扎克伯格（Mark Zuckerberg）谈到AR是公司目前在虚拟现实领域努力的最终终点：

Over the next 10 years, the form factor’s just going to keep on getting **aller and **aller, and eventually we’re going to have what looks like normal-looking glasses that can do both virtual and augmented reality. And augmented reality gives you the ability to see the world but also to be able to overlay digital objects on top of that.

So that means that today, if I want to show my friends a photo, I pull out my phone and I have a **all version of the photo. In the future, you’ll be able to snap your fingers and pull out a photo and make it as big as you want, and with your AR glasses you’ll be able to show it to people and they’ll be able to see it.

As a matter of act, when we get to this world, a lot of things that we think about as physical objects today, like a TV for displaying an image, will actually just be $1 apps in an AR app store. So it’s going to take a long time to make this work. But this is the vision, and this is what we’re trying to get to over the next 10 years.

令人怀疑的是，Facebook目前正在开发的是扎克伯格在这里描述的无缝AR眼镜。现在说这个还为时过早。但按照他自己的时间表，Facebook还有八年的时间才能实现这一目标。
