Meta Quest Headsets Finally Work in Airplanes

[stainedmonster]

Meta is apparently now trying to fix that the products don't work particularly well in moving vehicles with a new Travel Mode on the Quest 2 and Quest 3.. Anyone know any more about this as I'm desperate to use my headset as a mini theatre on my next long haul flight coming up very soon..

Hey, Meta have put out a statement: 

Meta said in a blog post, “Travel Mode turns Quest into the ultimate in-flight entertainment device, so you can watch movies on a massive virtual screen, kick back with a game or meditation app, and even get some work done in private. And thanks to our headsets’ balanced, ergonomic design, you can enjoy it all comfortably, no neck pillow required.”

 

If you want to try out Travel Mode, you need to opt into the feature from the “Experimental features” section of the Settings app. It will then appear as a toggle in the Quick Settings menu. If the plane has a Wi-Fi network, the Quest might recognize it as an airplane network and ask you to enable Travel Mode.
