The first glimpse the audience had of the Santa Cruz headset was in October 2016. A video of the Santa Cruz headset was briefly shown at the Oculus Connect Event attended by thousands of VR developers and technology enthusiasts. Addressing the large gathering present there and to the millions more that connected to the event online, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, unveiled the VR headset and divulged the name of the prototype, Santa Cruz.
