The HP VR1000-100 Windows Mixed Reality headset is a tethered VR headset for PC made by HP, a manufacturer based in the US. This Windows MR headset's official name is HP VR1000-100 but is commonly referred to as the HP Windows Mixed Reality headset. This is a VR headset and not in fact mixed reality. User reviews are quite positive regarding the HMD's comfortable design and image quality as well as its 90 Hz refresh rate. However, users point out the low 90° FOV (or 100° FOV with a Windows MR Ultra PC) and the lack of IPD adjustment.
