ALVR (Air Light VR) is an open-source application that streams PC VR games to standalone VR headsets over Wi-Fi, acting as a SteamVR driver on the PC side with a companion client app on the headset. It supports Quest, Pico, Vive Focus, Apple Vision Pro, and other headsets, with a Rust-based server and launcher for Windows and Linux.

- stream PC VR games to a standalone headset over Wi-Fi
- use a high-end gaming PC to run VR games for a Pico 4

- run PCVR on Apple Vision Pro
- play VR games from a Linux gaming PC on a Quest 3
When to choose
