Technical requirements overview

For operating our simulator you need:
  • a VR-capable PC (Windows 10 or 11, with dedicated, VR-ready graphics card e.g. NVIDIA)
  • a running HTC VIVE Pro VR system with SteamVR ("VIVE Focus Vision" support is in progress) 
  • the XRNAUT  control console (XRNAUT-RX)
  • Internet connection (LAN/WLAN)
  • Credit card (for billing)
  • Floor plate for mounting the helm console

Simulator PC - System requirements

The system requirements for the PC correspond to those for an HTC VIVE compatible system. A good overview of the technical data can be found under HTC VIVE - Recommended minimum requirements (please select "VIVE PRO 2" as the system). We also recommend 16 GB RAM and a graphics card with NVIDIA chipset.

A permanent Internet connection is also required (WLAN or LAN). In addition to the display in the VR glasses, an additional display on a FullHD (1920x1080) display system (screen or projector) should be provided for the other course participants.

Space and set-up requirements

Recommended space for the simulator console is approx. 3 m². However, if you decide for a VR system with Lighhouses, the positioning of the tracking sensors is an important point when planning the location, an example of a proven room layout is shown here:
