Oculus avatars allow anyone using the Rift to create a customized version of themselves, complete with more than 1 billion permutations of clothing, accessories, hair, face and color choices. Oculus VP of Product Nate Mitchell introduced the new avatar system, personalizing a character live on stage during today's Oculus Connect 3 event. The avatars will be used in various games and social experiences in the Oculus ecosystem, including the newly announced VR Rooms and Sports Bar VR, and the whole endeavor goes live when the Touch controllers ship on December 6th.
