Entering Virtual Reality (VR)
In Pixyz Review, you can decide to enter in VR in your scene to visualize and interact with your 3D files at 1:1 scale. You can do it on your own or during a collaborative session with others.
Entering VR experience on one computer already allows collaboration
While entering VR, Desktop Pixyz Review is still running and displays what the VR user sees. You're able to collaborate with your teammate wearing the head-mounted display since he can see your selection or interaction with the scene and he can see yours !
How to launch a VR session ?
To launch a VR session, you need:
- SteamVR installed on your computer.
If for security reasons, you can't install SteamVR by the installer, some constructor like HTC gives offline possibilities. - A VR headset connected and recognized by SteamVR (The list of VR hardware is available here)
- Select the right VR Headset in the "VR" panel
If these conditions are met, you can "Enter VR" with the button in the TopBar Actions.
