Oculus Rift Development Kit 2
Children:
This product is supplied solely to facilitate the
creation and development of interactive software applications to be used solely with the
headset, and should not be used by children.
General Instructions & Precautions:
You should always follow
these instructions and observe these precautions while using the headset to reduce the
risk of injury or discomfort.
•
Use Only In A Safe Environment:
The headset produces an immersive
virtual reality experience that distracts you from and completely blocks your
view of your actual surroundings. Always be aware of your surroundings
when using the headset. Remain seated whenever possible, and take special
care to ensure that you are not near other people, objects, stairs, balconies,
windows, furniture, or other items that you can trip over, bump into, or knock
down when using—or immediately after using—the headset. Do not handle
sharp or otherwise dangerous objects while using the headset. Never wear
the headset in situations that require attention, such as walking, bicycling, or
driving.
•
Ease into the use of the headset to allow your body to adjust; use for only a
few minutes at a time at first, and only increase the amount of time using the
headset gradually as you grow accustomed to virtual reality.
•
Do not use the headset when you are tired, need sleep, are under the
influence of alcohol or drugs, as this can increase your susceptibility to adverse
symptoms.
•
Take a 10 to 15 minute break every hour, even if you don’t think you need it.
Each person is different, so take more frequent and longer breaks if you feel
discomfort. You should decide what works best.
•
Listening to sound at high volumes can cause irreparable damage to your
hearing. Background noise, as well as continued exposure to high volume
levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they actually are. Due to the
immersive nature of the virtual reality experience, do not use the headset
with the sound at a high volume so that you can maintain awareness of your
surroundings.
Repetitive Stress Injury:
Playing video games can make your
muscles, joints or skin hurt. If any part of your body becomes tired or sore while playing,
or if you feel symptoms such as tingling, numbness, burning or stiffness, stop and rest for
several hours before playing again. If you continue to have any of the above symptoms
or other discomfort during or after play, stop playing and see a doctor.
Sunlight Damage:
Do not leave the headset in direct sunlight.
Exposure to direct sunlight can damage the headset.
