Customize your appearance in VR with Oculus avatars
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 on the Rift, including Sports Bar VR, and the whole system goes live when the Touch controllers come out before the end of the year.

The avatars are more like busts and they come in a range of colors, from Academy Award gold to bright pink. The digital representations move as you do in real life, using the Touch controllers to gesture and wave.
