The first consumer-ready implementation of Chaperone was introduced at CES 2016 as a part of the HTC Vive Pre headset.
==Chaperone and the Guardian system==
The Chaperone has been compared with the Rift’s Guardian system. Both systems enable the user to interact safely with the virtual space. However, the front camera in the Vive allows for the projection of the outside world in the virtual experience, further helping the user to avoid crashing into obstacles. The camera can also be used to find something in the room without having to remove the headset. This, according to some opinions, has given Chaperone the edge over the Guardian system. <ref name=”vs”>Smith, S.L. (2017). Oculus Rift vs. HTC Vive: The Rift is best all around.
