Meta opens up its Meta Horizon OS to third-party hardware makers, aiming to create a larger ecosystem and make it easier for developers to create apps for larger audiences. The OS combines mixed reality features with social presence, supporting features like eye, face, hand, and body tracking. Companies like ASUS, Lenovo, and Xbox are already building devices based on Horizon OS. Meta is also making it easier for developers to ship software on the platform, and a new spatial app framework is being previewed to help create mixed-reality experiences.
