Open Source Virtual Reality (OSVR)


Hands-On with Razer's OSVR Hacker Dev Kit

Published on Jan 14, 2015

We put on Razer's OSVR prototype, a headset that's part of an open-source initiative to promote virtual reality for PC gaming. Think of it as Android for VR, where not one company controls all the hardware and software. Will and Norm discuss what they learned about OSVR from chatting with Razer's representatives, and share their impressions on the hacker dev kit demo.
 

Hands-On: Razer's OSVR Hacker Dev Kit at GDC 2015

Razer's approach to the virtual reality headset space is interesting: they're not making the best VR HMD, but one that can be modular for developers to experience with different features like augmented reality and third-party controller compatibility. We try the latest dev kit prototype at GDC 2015, and chat with Razer about why they're making a VR product at all.

We stop by the Razer booth at CES to check in on the company's OSVR imitative and try out the Hacker Dev Kit virtual reality headset. It's not as polished a VR headset as the Oculus Rift or HTC Vive, but gives developers similar features to make games and experiment with virtual reality.
