Oculus VR has acquired Carbon Design Group, a design firm that helped Microsoft create the Xbox 360 gamepad and its first Kinect camera. The team will officially become a key component of the product engineering group at Oculus, the company announced today. Oculus is sharing news of the acquisition today for the first time, but the two teams have already been collaborating for nearly a year. Theyre working together on multiple unannounced projects, but Oculus isnt getting any more specific than that at this stage.
