Whether you're looking to create a futuristic concept, a high-end car configurator, or a mass-market mobile experience, one of the most important decisions you'll make in a VR project is picking the right headset.

‍

Although VR is still relatively young, there are so many headsets currently available (or on the way), that it's often hard to know which is best for your use case. At ZeroLight, we're always working to get access to the latest hardware, so we've been able to test our solutions across a wide range of HMDs (head-mounted displays). We've used all of our expertise and experience to put together this guide to help you make the right decision for your project.

Before we get into the specifics, there are a few key areas to consider when you're looking to make this decision: cost, degree of freedom, resolution, tracking method, tethered vs. wireless, your available computation/rendering power, and enterprise support. The first step in this decision process is deciding on your ideal for each of these areas.
