Oreon VR at a glance

  • Oreon 11 underneath, with a shell made for using it in a headset.
  • No account needed. Apps come from Flathub, and DNF still works.
  • Oculus Go first, because its 3DoF tracking is a simpler place to start.

What is Oreon VR?

Oreon VR es un proyecto dedicado al desarrollo de un sistema operativo de realidad virtual basado en Linux. Está diseñado para estar libre de seguimiento corporativo, ecosistemas impuestos y tiendas digitales restrictivas, de modo que tus datos sigan siendo tuyos.

Empezando con Oculus Go

El desarrollo inicial se centra en Oculus Go, ya que su sistema de seguimiento de 3DoF ofrece un punto de partida accesible. Tenemos previsto explorar la compatibilidad con más dispositivos a medida que surjan las oportunidades.

Desarrollo temprano

Oreon VR se encuentra en sus primeras fases. El tráiler de presentación muestra la dirección que está tomando el proyecto, pero aún no se dispone de un calendario de desarrollo.

Goals

Your data stays yours

The headset should not be sending your head movement, controller input, or what you use it for to anyone. If something does need to go out, you decide that.

No account

You should not need an account, especially one tied to a social network, to use a headset you already own.

Install what you want

The app store in the shell uses Flathub. DNF is there too, same as on any other Oreon system.

Open source

The source will be on GitHub once it is ready. You can read it, fork it, or send us fixes.

Why is the shell its own package?

Oreon VR is Oreon 11 with the VR shell on top, and the shell is its own RPM, separate from the base system. The main reason is debugging. When something breaks, it is easier to tell where. If the problem is in the shell, it is in one package we can fix and update without touching the rest of the system. If it is in the base, it is an Oreon 11 bug, and fixing it there fixes it for every Oreon 11 install.

It also means that if you already run Oreon 11, you can install the shell with DNF and boot into it. You do not have to reinstall.

Oreon VR image

Branding, the default user, and permission rules for the live system. That is all the image adds.

oreonvr-shell

The VR interface. It goes through our build service like the rest of our packages.

Oreon 11

Same base system, repositories, and updates as a normal Oreon 11 install.

Oreon VR is not out yet

When it is, you will install it with a web installer.

If you would rather build it yourself, the source trees will be on GitHub.
