3. Check the millimeter mark on the other eye. You may need to close the first eye to get a
clear measure.

4. Make a note of your IPD measurement. You may want to recheck several times to make
sure your reading is accurate.
You can also ask a friend to help you measure instead of using a mirror. Make sure you're
looking straight ahead while they measure.
Estimating your IPD through experimentation
You can estimate IPD by trying different settings. This method is very convenient, but might be
less accurate.
1. While wearing the VR headset, focus on text or lines at the center of view. If no text is
present, open a screen in VR with text.
2. Adjust the IPD knob until the text is clear. Note the number for future use.
3. If the image in one eye is clearer than the other, adjust the headset position. Repeat until
images are clear for both eyes.
Flipping up the visor
Quickly take a break from VR to check your surroundings.
While wearing VIVE Cosmos, hold the visor with one or both hands, and then gently flip it up.
To return it to its original position, tilt the visor down until it completely covers your eyes.
If you wear large glasses, you may need to adjust the headset to sit higher on your head when
flipping the visor up or down.
