Real IPD is the actual distance between the center of your eyes' pupils in real life. Any [[Head-mounted Display]] require this measurement to accurately position the virtual camera outputs on the screen in front of the user's eyes. The outputs have to be directly in front of both of the users' eyes. Any deviation can cause eye strain.
