Slimline travel rig setup for Quest VR developers

Hello all,

 

I just wanted to share a pictures of my travel VR rig setup @ GDC 2022 in hopes that it helps others in the future that need to travel and dev VR on Quest. It is pretty much the most light weight and powerful setup I could put together.

 

Macbook pro with bootcamp Windows & striped down external GPU (below the TV) plugged into an external touchscreen display. eGPU works with Quest through thunderbolt, no need to plug it to the GPU directly, it pipes through the laptops thunderbolt. It’s a slim travel setup for a VR dev, and works flawlessly so far with Unity and other VR games.

 

I took some purchasing risks to try this out, so wanted to share the knowledge so others know that it worked for me. Hopefully this un-tethers someone from the home desk setup this summer. Everything fits nicely in a suitcase.

 

 

Enjoy some enhanced freedom devs! 🙂
