Katie Finnegan, who was one of the first to write about this acquisition says that, “the majority of the technology that has been created in this space has been focused on the development of hardware and content for spaces such as gaming and entertainment, ignoring the range of possibilities available in retail.”

It’s an exciting time for retail and the years to come will surely reveal the endless possibilities that are available through VR.
