In its new Steam Frame VR headset, Valve put dual audio drivers on each side in the included head strap. That puts the audio near your ears while you\u2019re wearing it, and in my brief time trying the device at Valve\u2019s headquarters recently, I thought the sound was just fine. But the choice to have those dual drivers also helps reduce audio vibrations, which helps the headset with tracking while you\u2019re playing games in VR, Valve hardware engineer Jeremy Selan tells The Verge<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Frame, like many other VR headsets, uses outward-facing cameras built into the main part of the headset for tracking. However, audio with good bass \u201cinduces vibrations into the headset,\u201d which can affect that tracking, according to Selan. But on the Frame\u2019s included head strap, the dual drivers per side are \u201cmounted opposite to each other,\u201d which creates \u201cvibration cancellation inherent in the design.\u201d That allows for \u201cbetter tracking, even with good audio,\u201d Selan says.<\/p>\n

Pretty cool! The headset is modular, too, so theoretically, you might be able to use other head straps with other audio solutions later. It\u2019s a really interesting headset \u2014 I recently got to try it for myself<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
