About This Project

At the core of the Vector Gear is a simple belief — people should own the products they buy. That's why we make our hardware and software either source-available or fully open source. Upon release, we plan to progressively open the ecosystem — starting with more software, then hardware documentation, and eventually down to the lens design itself.

Key Highlights

▸ Dual 2160x2160 @ 90hz setup with automatic IPD adjustment

▸ Full face tracking system

▸ Inside-out SLAM tracking (headset + controllers + gloves)

Risks & Challenges

The biggest risk comes from the development of the PCBs. While we are good enough to handle current and future additions to the software, a mistake with the PCBs specifically would mean the headset doesn't turn on.
