OVR Toolkit is a VR App.
Description
OVR Toolkit enables you to bring your desktop windows and some applications like Spotify into virtual reality. You can overlay many SteamVR applications and use your VR controllers as well as a virtual keyboard to control windows. You can also utilize "Simulator Mode" to eliminate the use of VR controllers, which is particularly useful for desktop-focused VR and games like simulated racing.[1]
Features
- Lay over almost all SteamVR applications, including curved overlays
- Create and view multiple desktop windows
- Attach windows to tracked devices
- Enable window re-centering in Edit Mode
- Quickly select desktop windows
- Scroll up and down or select on windows by dragging with your controller
- Wristwatch - overlay on your hand with the time, date, controller battery power, Spotify/music players, and more
- Save/Load configurations
- Advanced settings for window capture - change FPS, transparency, and window visibility
- Eco Mode - when enabled, performance mode will lower the capture rate of windows you are not using to significantly increase performance and lower CPU usage
