上周二，F(xiàn)acebook在每年一度的F8開發(fā)者大會(huì)上描繪了理想中的未來(lái)，順便介紹了一些新工具和新功能。

增強(qiáng)現(xiàn)實(shí)

周二Facebook首席執(zhí)行官馬克?扎克伯格一走上大會(huì)講臺(tái)，就首先強(qiáng)調(diào)相機(jī)將變成社交中與朋友交流的重要工具。所以鼓勵(lì)開發(fā)者為Facebook打造帶有全新增強(qiáng)現(xiàn)實(shí)濾鏡的相機(jī)，很快會(huì)開始啟動(dòng)測(cè)試版。最終會(huì)上線數(shù)十種增強(qiáng)現(xiàn)實(shí)濾鏡，例如面具、相框等等，在Facebook應(yīng)用的相機(jī)中都能找到。

根據(jù)Facebook提供的測(cè)試版，濾鏡可以跟隨畫面移動(dòng)，而且能根據(jù)畫面內(nèi)容自動(dòng)調(diào)整。舉例來(lái)說(shuō)，用戶可以將一張房間的照片修改成放滿糖果，也能在麥片碗旁邊加上一條游水的鯊魚。

Facebook稱增強(qiáng)現(xiàn)實(shí)平臺(tái)會(huì)不斷改進(jìn)，以后人們可以在餐館給朋友留虛擬便條，也可以在墻上繪制虛擬作品，只有通過手機(jī)才能看到。

Facebook將推出相關(guān)軟件幫助開發(fā)者搭建增強(qiáng)現(xiàn)實(shí)應(yīng)用，軟件名叫增強(qiáng)現(xiàn)實(shí)工作室。扎克伯格還半開玩笑地說(shuō)，全公司的命運(yùn)都看增強(qiáng)現(xiàn)實(shí)，還宣布“最終”會(huì)應(yīng)用在眼鏡中。

Facebook空間

自從2014年Facebook斥資20億美元收購(gòu)了虛擬現(xiàn)實(shí)公司Oculus VR，扎克伯格就一直表示虛擬現(xiàn)實(shí)是社交互動(dòng)的未來(lái)。本周二Facebook邁出了重要一步——推出新應(yīng)用Facebook空間，用戶可以跟朋友共同進(jìn)入虛擬世界。

本周二Facebook空間上線測(cè)試版，用戶可以創(chuàng)建虛擬形象，在虛擬現(xiàn)實(shí)中跟朋友聊天互動(dòng)。Facebook可以通過用戶照片生成虛擬形象，也可以根據(jù)個(gè)人喜好修改。互動(dòng)時(shí)用戶可以繪制虛擬標(biāo)記，觀看360度全景視頻，也可以通過聊天客戶端呼朋喚友。

聊天室新功能

Facebook聊天室開發(fā)平臺(tái)放開后，聊天插件越來(lái)越多，但尋找新插件還是有點(diǎn)不便。最新解決方法是在主頁(yè)添加“發(fā)現(xiàn)”標(biāo)簽，點(diǎn)進(jìn)去可以看到插件分類，最近使用，流行插件以及搜索框等。

Facebook也在發(fā)力拓展聊天室功能，今后可以支持多人同時(shí)對(duì)接第三方應(yīng)用或處理事務(wù)。舉個(gè)例子，如今用戶可以向聊天窗口轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)Spotify里的音樂，實(shí)現(xiàn)同步收聽。

2015年以來(lái)，F(xiàn)acebook一直在測(cè)試虛擬助手M，如今終于要應(yīng)用在聊天應(yīng)用里?，F(xiàn)在聊天時(shí)提到吃東西， M會(huì)建議去Delivery.com下單。就在此前不久，F(xiàn)acebook剛宣布將在聊天室中加入M助手，支持相關(guān)聊天標(biāo)簽和其他功能。

中國(guó)的微信軟件里，用戶與商家的大量互動(dòng)通過二維碼完成，F(xiàn)acebook希望自家聊天平臺(tái)也能實(shí)現(xiàn)類似效果。Facebook推出新二維碼功能，用戶用手機(jī)掃碼之后可以了解更多活動(dòng)內(nèi)容。

開發(fā)生態(tài)圈

Facebook希望通過全新的開發(fā)生態(tài)能吸引新一代應(yīng)用開發(fā)者。新平臺(tái)向所有開發(fā)者免費(fèi)提供，完全開放，而且很適合相互協(xié)作和分享知識(shí)。本地開發(fā)者可以負(fù)責(zé)當(dāng)?shù)厝ψ?，組織線下活動(dòng)并管理當(dāng)?shù)氐腇acebook工作組。此外Facebook也在努力吸引學(xué)生和經(jīng)驗(yàn)豐富的程序員，將與優(yōu)達(dá)學(xué)城合作為開發(fā)者生態(tài)圈提供定制培訓(xùn)項(xiàng)目。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

Facebook laid out its vision for the future Tuesday, revealing new tools and features during its annual F8 developers conference.

Augmented reality

When Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg kicked off Tuesday's conference, he emphasized that the camera would play a larger role in how people interact with friends on the social network. Facebook is encouraging developers to build new augmented reality camera effects for Facebook, which will be launching in a closed beta starting immediately. Eventually, dozens of AR-powered effects, like masks and frames, will be available within the Facebook app's camera.

Based on the company's demo, these photo effects will be able to move and adjust based on what the camera is pointing at. Users could fill a photo of a room with candy, for instance, or put swimming sharks around an image of a cereal bowl.

Facebook says its AR platform will eventually make it possible to leave a virtual note

for a friend at a restaurant or create artwork that appears on a building wall when looking at it with your phone.

Facebook will be launching software to help developers create such experiences called AR Studio. Zuckerberg also teased the company's ultimate goal with AR, saying yet again the tech will "eventually" be implemented in glasses.

Facebook Spaces

Ever since Facebook acquired virtual reality firm Oculus VR for $2 billion in 2014, Zuckerberg has said that he sees VR as the future of social interaction. Facebook unveiled its first major step in that direction on Tuesday with Facebook Spaces, an app that makes it possible to spend time with friends in virtual reality.

Through the app, which launches in beta on Tuesday, users can create a digital avatar, then chat and interact with friends in VR. Facebook will generate an avatar based on your photos, which you can customize. During these hangouts, participants can draw with virtual markers, watch 360-degree videos, and call other friends through Messenger.

New Messenger features

Facebook's selection of chat bots has quickly grown since the company opened its Messenger platform to developers, but there hasn't been an easy way to find new bots. Facebook is addressing that issue by adding a new Discover tab accessible from the home screen. Here, Messenger will offer categories, recently used bots, trending bots, and a search field.

Facebook is also building chat extensions into Messenger, which make it possible for more than one person to interact with a third party app or business at the same time. For example, Messenger users will now be able to drop songs from Spotify into a thread so that they can all listen to the same track.

Facebook has been experimenting with its M virtual assistant since 2015, and now it's finally bringing some of that intelligence to its chat app. When talking about what to grab for dinner in Messenger, M will now be able to suggest placing an order through Delivery.com. The announcement comes after Facebook recently announced that M will be coming to Messenger to serve up relevant stickers and perform other functions.

QR codes have become a large part of the way WeChat users interact with brands in China, and Facebook is betting some of that interest will translate to its own communication platform. The company is rolling out new QR codes that makes it possible to learn more about events in the real world by scanning them with your phone.

Developer Circles

Facebook is hoping to make its platform attractive for the next generation of app creators through its new Developer Circles initiative. The program is free an open to any developer, and will function as a forum for collaborating and sharing knowledge. Local developers will lead each circle by organizing offline events and managing a Facebook Group for that specific region. The company is pushing it as an opportunity for students and experienced coders alike. Facebook will also partner with Udacity to create custom training programs for Developer Circles.
