Steam Frame preview: a long-awaited standalone VR headset that runs Steam games on ARM
Codename Deckard, Valve’s long-rumoured standalone VR headset, is here. Despite being the subject of rumours for years, this is in many ways the most unconventional part of Valve’s November hardware announcements, which also include the Steam Machine and Steam Controller, as it’s an entirely new category for Valve. It also marks the debut of two key technologies, Foveated Streaming and SteamOS on ARM, allowing the headset to be a capable option both for streaming games rendered remotely and playing games directly on the Frame’s Snapdragon chipset.
