Hands on with the HTC Vive Pro

HTC have up the ante on Room Scale VR. The Vive Pro and Wireless Adapters are a force to be reckoned with.

HTC, the company that bought us the VIVE headset, have released the latest iteration. It's called the Vive Pro, and instead of replacing the Vive you can buy today HTC plans to sell it separately as an upgrade for those who need something a little better.

With a new look, new sounds, new sights and pretty much new everything there's a lot to talk about, so lets jump in!

A new look

While the main body may look passingly familiar the actual HMD is very different. Sporting two cameras on the front much like the Windows Mixed Reality headsets and a new matte blue finish, the Vive Pro is an altogether sturdier looking machine.

Unlike Mixed Reality headsets, these cameras aren't for tracking the world around you. Instead, HTC is opening these cameras to developers for things like augmented Reality integration in Vive apps.
