Connecting a Meta Quest Headset

The Meta Quest headsets do not use SteamVR by default, this section outlines the steps required to connect a Quest 2 or Quest 3 to SteamVR using Quest Link so you can use the Quest Headset with RoboDK.

Quest Link is Meta’s solution to connecting your headset to a PC. This has the advantage of being easy to set up, free, and included with every headset. You can use a high-quality data + power USB-C cable to connect the headset to the PC or simply use Air Link for a wireless experience.
