PlayStation VR connects to a PlayStation 4 for information processing and streaming. A small, black box is required to be connected to the PS4 to handle 3D rendering required by PSVR. The box can be attached to a monitor to display PSVR' user's view in an altered form.

PSVR integrates with the PlayStation Camera to accurately track the user's head movements and positions. When used with With help of the 9 [[LED]]s on the HMD, the PS Camera, the camera tracks the user up to 1000 times per second. The camera allows more precise tracking when combined with in-helmet sensors.
