Oculus Rift / HTC Vice Technical Comparison
Description
In this project, we compared the working area, accuracy, and jitter in a room-size environment, and the working range of the head tracking of the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive.
The HTC Vive provided a working area (24.87 m2) twice as large as that of the Oculus Rift. Both devices showed excellent and comparable performance at sitting height (accuracy up to 1 cm and jitter <0.35 mm), and the HTC Vive presented worse but still excellent accuracy and jitter at standing height (accuracy up to 1.5 cm and jitter <0.5 mm). The HTC Vive presented a larger working range (7 m) than did the Oculus Rift (4.25 m).
