As well as the consumer uses, the Rift has attracted significant interest from industry and professional spheres for productivity enhancement, visualization, and advertising.

A number of architecture firms have been experimenting with using the Rift for visualization and design.
With the right software, the Rift allows architects to see exactly what their building will look like and get an understanding of the scale that is impossible on a traditional monitor.

In early 2015, Audi started using Rift Developer Kit 2's at dealerships to help customers configure the car they are interested in, as well as to see what driving a race in the car would be like.

The Norwegian Army has been experimenting with the Rift Development Kit 2 to allow for a greater situational awareness of armoured vehicle drivers and commanders.

The use of Oculus Rift on an innovative virtual operator station assists the control of a teleoperated military mobile robot Tactical Robotic System (TAROS).
Human operators can have intuitive control and mediate 3D view from stereovision cameras.

Oculus Medium is a Painting Experience for Oculus Rift.

Education
The Oculus Rift is increasingly used in universities and schools as an educational tool.
The ability to provide an immersive, engaging environment can assist a diverse range of students for learning.
In particular, there appears to be benefits to medical, health science and exercise students when utilising the Oculus Rift as a supplement for content provided in anatomy and physiology.
There is also increasing use of the Oculus Rift within curricula in other fields such as marketing, architecture, clinical education.,
