VR
Your games - on a huge screen in your headset
Hrava runs the Windows game on your Mac and streams the picture to your headset's browser over Wi-Fi. Nothing is installed on the headset. You play with a gamepad, keyboard or mouse - and watch on a big virtual screen.
Turn on streaming in Hrava
Open the VR panel in Hrava - it shows an address and a QR code.
Open the address in your headset
Scan the QR in the headset browser, or type the address.
Enter the PIN
Once per headset. Then start a game on the Mac - streaming begins on its own.
What this does, and what it does not
What you get
- A big virtual screen - the game looks like it is on a huge monitor
- The game runs on your Mac's GPU; the headset only displays it
- Up to 1080p at 60 fps, over Wi-Fi, protected by a PIN
- Play with a gamepad, keyboard or mouse; the headset controller works too
- Nothing is installed on the headset - a browser is all it needs
What it does NOT do
- This is not a stereoscopic VR mode: the game stays flat, with no 3D depth
- No in-game head tracking (6DoF) - the game camera does not follow your head
- Ordinary games do not become VR games
- It needs your home Wi-Fi: this does not work over the internet
