Description

Provides an API and runtime access layer for virtual-reality hardware from multiple vendors. Applications use it to communicate with supported headsets, controllers, tracking systems, and VR compositor services.

Use it when games or VR applications need OpenVR compatibility. It is infrastructure for VR software and hardware integration, not a normal desktop app that users open by itself.
