What is the play area?
The play area sets the virtual boundaries of Vive. Your interaction with VR objects happen within
the play area.
Choosing the play area
Find a space that you will designate as the play area. For best results, do the following:
§ Clear the play area of furniture and other things (including pets) that may block you from
freely moving around.
§ Remove or cover large mirrors or reflective surfaces.
§ Cover windows or other sources of direct sunlight.
§ Place your computer right outside of the play area. The headset cable can only extend by
around 16 feet (5 meters) from your computer.
