The brain that powers this headset is called WorldSense. It tracks your movements without needing external sensors, just like the other stand-alone headsets. The familiar Daydream controller will allow you interact with the virtual world.

Lenovo is mum on the screen resolution but promises 110° field of view – matching the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. The headset is powered by the Snapdragon 835 VR platform with 4GB of RAM, so it has a performance edge over the Oculus Go/Mi VR Standalone.
