Razer Open source VR HDK 2.0 (VR17-C14122) VR Headset

• Display

The OSVR HDK2 has a dual display that runs 90 frames / Second and has 2160 x 1200 pixels as its combined resolution. The OSVR HDK2 has a screen with 441-PPI, RGB-OLED display. To cut the screen effect OSVR had added a silver layer to the display.

• Lenses

HTC Vive and Oculus Rift use fresnel lenses; Razer has opted a different system. It uses a dual lens system. Even though the dual lens system isn’t perfect, it’s free from the godrays issue. Furthermore, the dual lens system is heavier than the fresnel lenses. The OSVR HDK2 headset has an 110-degree FoV (Field of View).

• Infrared Positional Tracking Camera

Razer’s infrared positional tracking camera has a maximum range of 2.4 – 2.7 meters. Although the IR camera of OSVR HDK2 is a good alternative to other tracking cameras, it has certain limitations. The infrared range is sufficient to track standing experiences. The camera’s performance might greatly suffer if the users walk around too much. The infrared LEDs on the rear end of the VR headset allow the camera to capture 360-degree turns.
