Tracking mode, choose one of the following:
Mode Description Default mode Allows users to use the headset in their defined room-scale or stationary play areas. Supports mixed reality. See Setting up your play area and Setting up multiple play areas. Instant mode Best used for stationary applications and when the headset will be used in different spaces or shared among users. Doesn't support mixed reality. In this mode, you won't need to set up a play area. A temporary stationary play area—a circular area with a radius of 1 m—will be created automatically every time a user puts on the headset.
Passenger mode Helps prevent drift when using the headset in a dark environment or a vehicle that's moving steadily forward, such as a train.
