Calgary These Glasses May Offer A Glimpse Into Facebook's Future | HuffPost Life - Action.News ABC Action News WestNet-HD Weather Traffic

But for that to happen, more people are going to need VR headsets -- and they're probably not going to use the current ones, because most of them are both really expensive and totally ridiculous-looking. In other words, they're not ready for the mainstream.
