We want to buy a new VR headset.
Our preferred headset is the new HTC COSMOS.
But before I buy it I have to be shure that it works with LumenRT.
Is there a up-to-date list of supported VR headsets for LumenRT?
Regards,
Christian
Hello Chrsitian,
For the latest, you can have a look at Vive Pro, LumenRT works fine with it.
About the new Cosmos we need to have a look at this device, will get back to you as soon as i have something for you.
Thanks.

is the Oculus Quest supported by LumenRT?
Hello Martin,
Can you please share some link for the product exact name or model number, if you can share the link of the product will be great.
We will have a look and let you know the results.
Hi Ankur, here is the link:

do you have a recommendation on which VR system works well/best with LumenRT update 13?
Hi martin,
The Quest will only work with LumenRT using a Link cable to tether it and I believe the software may still be in beta. I have a cable on order from Oculus and will know more once I have the cable and can test it first hand. The Rift S works fine but I believe the Quest to be a better headset and if it indeed works with the cable I would chose it over the Rift S.
I will let you know once I receive the cable and can test it with LumenRT. You would also need a system capable of working with VR for any tethered headset so be sure to check the recommended specifications for HTC Vive, Valve or Oculus.
I also have the HTC Vive Pro and it is a nice headset but I don't like their proprietary connector and IMO it is more of a hassle to setup than the Oculus not to mention it cost twice as much as the Oculus.
Here is a pretty good article on latest headsets including Quest. https://medium.com/@sscranton/oculus-link-is-the-rift-s-killer-why-oculus-quest-is-now-the-best-vr-option-for-almost-everyone-961f094e1fc3
And another one on why the Oculus link cable might be the best way to tether the Quest to a VR capable PC. https://www.pcworld.com/article/3519488/oculus-link-review-this-80-cable-is-worth-every-penny-to-turn-quest-into-a-rift-rival.html
