  • Normally we can't wait to open our new toys and expose their inner workings... but we also love any excuse to pull out our handy dandy infrared camera.

  • Dots everywhere! The HDK 2's stand-mounted sensor tracks this constellation of infrared (IR) LEDs from one instant to the next, in order to compute the wearer's motion and position.

  • This is similar to the tracking system employed by the Oculus Rift, and the virtual opposite of that used in HTC's Vive.

  • The lone USB 3.0 port, nestled onto the side of this headset, can be used to attach accessories as they are developed.

  • When wearing the HDK, two cables pass over your head—the large one feeds data to the HMD, while the skinny one is responsible for a few IR LEDs hidden in the box behind your head (allowing for 360º tracking).
