EPU handles image distortion, output the HMD view to a secondary monitor and some audio output. EPU distorts the image generated by the PS4 to counteract the lens distortion before sending the image to the HMD. It also provides an optional non-distorted output to an additional monitor, so you can attach a monitor to the EPU to display PSVR's user's view in the undistorted form.
