Virtual reality has the potential to change the way we work.\u00a0We envision the future office worker to be able to work\u00a0productively everywhere solely using portable standard\u00a0input devices and immersive head-mounted displays. Virtual\u00a0reality has the potential to enable this, by allowing users to\u00a0create working environments of their choice and by relieving\u00a0them from physical world limitations, such as constrained\u00a0space or noisy environments. In this paper, we investigate\u00a0opportunities and challenges for realizing this vision and\u00a0discuss implications from recent findings of text entry in\u00a0virtual reality\u00a0as a core office task.<\/p>\n
