The [[Valve Index]] is | The [[Valve Index]] is an [[HMD]] offered by [[Valve Corporation]], the company behind the popular gaming platform [[Steam]]. Released in 2019, the Index represents Valve's entry into the high-end virtual reality hardware market with their own branded headset, building upon their previous collaboration with HTC on the [[HTC Vive]]. The full kit comes with a headset, two controllers, and two base stations. The headset requires a connection to a PC, and features high-resolution displays, innovative off-ear audio solution, and a wide field of view. The controllers, originally known as "Knuckles" during development, enable individual finger tracking through capacitive sensors and force detection. The base stations utilize the [[Lighthouse]] tracking system, an enhancement to the system previously used by the [[HTC Vive]].<ref name="valve_website">https://www.valvesoftware.com/en/index</ref><ref name="verge_review">https://www.theverge.com/2019/6/28/19102584/valve-index-steamvr-headset-review-shipping-today</ref> | ||
