Frequently asked questions
What does "VR headset" mean?
It is the device worn on the head that displays an image in front of each eye and tracks head movement. Some are standalone, others connected to a computer.
What does "tracking" mean?
It is how the system knows where the headset, and often the hands, are in space. It is what lets your real movements match what you see.
What should I wear and plan for?
Comfortable shoes and clothing if the format involves walking. Instructions vary by venue: ask when booking.
Can I wear my glasses?
It depends on the headset model. Several accommodate them, and some offer an adjustment. Mention it when booking or on arrival.
