VR Headset Storage
Storing and charging a virtual reality headset safely when not in use is necessary in order to make sure the equipment continues to function properly. There are only a few options available that offer a way to store your vr headset both securely and attractively. Below we take a look at some of the challenges unique to storing this technology and then we provide a list of what is currently available.
VR Headset Storage Challenges
- Tangled Cords: multiple headsets require at least one headset per unit resulting in a spaghetti-mess of tangled cables, cords, and chargers.
- Controllers Mixed-up: each headset has two hand controllers paired that should stay together.
- Safely Store VR Headsets: keep VR headsets safely tucked away and ready.
- Charging Multiple Headsets is Inefficient & Unsafe: plugging multiple headsets into multiple outlets is messy.
