List of virtual reality headsets

There are two primary categories of virtual reality (VR) headsets:

  • Standalone – devices that have all necessary components to provide virtual reality experiences integrated into the headset. Mainstream standalone VR platforms include:
    • Oculus Mobile SDK, developed by Oculus VR for its own standalone headsets and the Samsung Gear VR. (The SDK has been deprecated in favor of OpenXR, released in July 2021.)[1]
  • Tethered – headsets that act as a display device to another device, like a PC or a video game console, to provide a virtual reality experience. Mainstream tethered VR platforms include:
Thumb
Comparison chart of per-eye headset resolutions

Other categories include mobile headsets, which combine a smartphone with a mount, and hybrid solutions like the Oculus Quest with the Oculus Link feature that allows the standalone device to also serve as a tethered headset.

In addition, VR headsets are categorized by the degrees of freedom they provide:

  • 3DoF: 3 degrees of freedom, which only tracks the rotation of the player's head.
  • 6DoF: 6 degrees of freedom, which tracks both the position and the rotation of the player.
