The unveiling of 4G-ready "all-in-one" goggles by a domestic start-up, provides another answer to implement the concept advocated by Facebook-owned Oculus VR, which says that virtual reality will not be limited to gaming.

"The reason behind Mark Zuckerberg's ambitions on ‘VR-gets-social' is that the company specializes in building products with social attributes," said Lei Ming, vice-president and design director of Focalmax Technology Co Ltd, a one-year-old Shenzhen-based company that focuses on optical technology and telecommunication.

Lei said future VR products will become a hardware similar to smartphones, which provide several functions, including making phone calls, taking photos and even connecting to the internet.

Focalmax recently launched a series of "all-in-one" mobile VR goggles—Scati ONE, featuring functions that provide both VR and augmented reality (AR) experiences.

The three versions of the Scati ONE family (Scati ONE Lite, Scati ONE Neo and Scati ONE) target different consumers by providing three price ranges: 999 yuan($149), 1,699 yuan and 2,499 yuan.
