NEW YORK: In a bid to build Wi-Fi drones, data servers and virtual reality goggles faster, social media giant Facebook has acquired Silicon Valley-based start-up Nascent Objects for an undisclosed sum, a media report said.
The acquisition is part of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's 10-year plan which includes big bets in artificial intelligence, virtual reality and internet access, CNET reported on Monday.
The startup which will be a part of Building 8, Facebook's secret initiative for developing hardware, makes tools to help speed up the process of building physical hardware prototypes.
