HTC has announced the Vive Focus Vision, its latest XR headset for enterprise built on the success of the Vive Focus 3, with numerous updates and features for the new 5k per eye resolution headset.

Featuring a DisplayPort mode for PCVR, enabling lossless visuals by connecting the headset directly to a workstation graphics card, users can maintain intended quality. Offering up to 120-degree FOV and 90Hz refresh rate, support for 120Hz refresh rate via DisplayPort mode is intended as an upgrade later in 2024.

Two front-facing colour cameras enable stereoscopic passthrough, so users can see the world with natural depth perception while wearing the headset, making Mixed Reality experiences even more realistic. Vive Focus Vision also features a revamped cooling system, allowing for more comfortable sessions. A built-in sub-battery also allows it to keep running for up to 20 minutes while swapping batteries, so users never lose their place in an XR experience.

Vive Focus Vision also adds auto-IPD adjustment with integrated eye tracking, so users can easily share the headset, with it automatically adjust the interpupillary distance of the lenses for crystal-clear visuals every time.

“Vive Focus Vision gives you the best of both worlds, with outstanding standalone capabilities, and DisplayPort mode support for visually lossless PCVR experiences,” said Shen Ye, global head of product at HTC Vive. “We’re taking everything to the next level with built-in eye-tracking, stereo colour passthrough cameras for depth-correct Mixed Reality, and even an infra-red sensor for enhanced hand tracking in low-light conditions.”

The Vive Focus Vision comes with 1x HMD, 2x controllers, 1x headset battery, a charger and charging cables, and costs: $999 / £999 inc. VAT€1,199 inc. VAT
