Experience virtual reality on your Mac with the help of this application and an Oculus Rift DK2

Since virtual reality glasses appeared, a range of possibilities has opened up for both developers and users. What did you imagine you could do when putting on your glasses? Be that only gamers enjoy this technology? Certainly, as this new application for Mac proves, the VR Desktop for Mac.

VR Desktop

Created by Cindori, this app is intended to take the desktop environment to the virtual reality glasses. It works as follows: with an Oculus Rift Developer Kit 2 device and a computer running macOS 10.11 or higher, the user can view up to three desktops (that is, their original screen and two virtual screens) and work in the most productive way possible.

Last year, the founder of Oculus stated that it would not be possible to bring the device to Macs due to the lack of more robust specifications. Contrary to this, Cindori created “a framework first-rate custom virtual reality to ensure a smooth experience on any modern Mac with a discrete GPU ”.

There have been many opponents dismissing the Mac as a VR platform. We are here to prove that Macs are capable of useful VR applications.

In addition to providing the creation of two virtual screens, the application also allows the user to have an almost cinematic experience when watching movies and playing on a “big screen”.

VR Desktop for Mac costs $ 20, but you can fill in your email on the website and receive a trial version reminding you that, for now, only Oculus Rift DK 2 is supported (soon other VR glasses will also be listed).
