Equipped with AMOLED displays offering a resolution of 1440&#215;1600 pixels per eye, the Vive Pro ensures sharp images and vibrant colors. Its 110-degree field of view and 90 Hz refresh rate provide smooth and natural visuals. The SteamVR\u2122 2.0 tracking system allows precise movement tracking using base stations, making it ideal for applications requiring high accuracy. Additionally, the headset features integrated headphones with 3D spatial audio, enhancing immersion further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Vive Pro is lightweight and ergonomically designed for comfort during extended use. It supports various interfaces, including USB and DisplayPort, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of systems. The headset&#8217;s modular design allows for easy upgrades and customization, making it a versatile tool for both professional and personal use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:48px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Research Areas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The HTC Vive Pro is utilized in various research areas related to road safety and driver behavior. In the field of driver education, it provides a safe and controlled environment for novice drivers to practice and learn driving skills, mostly used in connection with our driving simulator <a href=\"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/trafikklab\/equipment\/thor\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"43\">THOR<\/a>. Researchers use the Vive Pro to study driver behavior and reactions in simulated driving scenarios, helping to identify factors that influence safe driving practices. At TRAFIKKLAB the VR Headset from HTC can be also implemented for research related to pedestrian, thanks to the open VR Arena dedicated to VR experiences with free movement. As an example, VR technologies are now being tested to evaluate the risk level perceived when riding e-scooters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, the Vive Pro is used to educate drivers on the importance of road safety and to train them in handling complex driving situations, thereby reducing the risk of accidents. This can be done by experiencing immersive situations without the exposure to any risk. In fact, by creating realistic virtual environments, the Vive Pro enables researchers to conduct experiments that would be difficult or dangerous to perform in real life, contributing to the development of safer and more effective driving education programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Feature<\/th><th>Specification<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Display<\/strong><\/td><td>Dual AMOLED<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Resolution<\/strong><\/td><td>1440&#215;1600 pixels per eye<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Refresh Rate<\/strong><\/td><td>90 Hz<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Field of View<\/strong><\/td><td>110 degrees<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Audio<\/strong><\/td><td>Hi-Res certificate headphones (removable)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Tracking System<\/strong><\/td><td>SteamVR\u2122 2.0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Sensors<\/strong><\/td><td>G-sensor, gyroscope, proximity, IPD sensor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Connections<\/strong><\/td><td>Bluetooth, USB-C port for peripherals<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Ergonomics<\/strong><\/td><td>Adjustable IPD, headphones, headstrap<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Minimum Computer Specs<\/strong><\/td><td>Intel\u00ae Core\u2122 i5-4590 or AMD FX\u2122 8350, 4 GB RAM, NVIDIA\u00ae GeForce\u00ae GTX 970 or AMD Radeon \u2122 R9 290<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Recommended Graphics<\/strong><\/td><td>NVIDIA\u00ae GeForce\u00ae GTX 1070\/Quadro P5000 or above, AMD Radeon\u2122 Vega 56 or above<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General Description The HTC Vive Pro is an advanced virtual reality headset designed to deliver a high-quality immersive experience.
