rantin Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I want to know that is there a plan for making wireless adaptor for laptop. In my job, I have to change places when I use HTC vive Pro, so I use laptop. I think I read somewhere that vive is considering making wireless adaptor available at laptop so I just want to know is it true and if so how long will it take. Thanks.

HackPerception Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 @rantin We unfortunately don't have any plans to try and iterate on the current wireless adapter SKU for a laptop. There's hardware limitations with the WiGig platform that wireless adapter is built upon that would prevent us from getting USB working with the current hardware.

Delphic77 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 If I am using a laptop dock with WiGig would I still need to use the WiGig Card that comes with the wireless adapter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HackPerception Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 @Delphic77, You specifically have to use the PCI-E card that comes with the wireless adapter. There's additional custom integrated circuitry on the PCI-e card that handles VR-specific video encoding/decoding and compression which is highly specific to the Vive wireless adapter system. Unfortunately there's no way to use the wireless adapter with a laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
