Roto has been designed to make 360-degree exploration comfortable, effortless, productive and immersive. What games does Roto work with?
Roto adds fun and immersion to all types of games and experiences. We will grow a recommended content list on our website, so please share with us your favourite experiences and setups so we can let everyone else know. Wed also love it if you would share any videos of your setups with us. We find the best experiences with Roto are in 360 degrees in VR. Rotos Headtracking feature enables comfortable viewing with all 360-degree content (Roto auto-turns to wherever you look), whilst the rumble packs add immersive feeling with haptic (vibration) feedback. Roto has lots of other features to explore including Touch Pedals underneath each foot (for walking in VR) which will need developer support before being able to use them. Were excited by the possibilities of how developers make use of Rotos expansive and unique features. If youre a developer, please do get in touch. What should I wire up?
How you wire up your Roto depends on which particular features or functions you wish to use at any particular time. Whilst Roto supports many different types of headsets and accessories, we recommend to wire up as little as possible at any given time, as some PCs and software are not great at handling too many USB devices simultaneously. If you experience any problems, we recommend disconnecting and then reconnecting all connections, especially the last USB cable which goes into your PC as it then reconfigures all the USB devices. Roto VR is a UK Ltd company. Companies House: 9473421. VAT Reg: 241423444. 28 Church Road, Stanmore, Middlesex, HA7 4XR, United Kingdom www.rotovr.com Using HTC Vive or Oculus with Roto Set up your VR Headset and PC normally, as if you didnt have a Roto. Once the headset is fully operational and you can see the menu (or game) inside the headset, then you are ready to set up Roto. Tip: Please see the setup videos for on our website. Connect the cables (and 12.5V power connector for Vive) into the Disconnect the Headset from (if using Oculus) or Vive Breakout Box (if 1) using Vive) 2) Cable Magazine sockets inside the Central Tube of the Roto chair. Connect the Vive USB male connector into the USB Socket labelled B (the data line) or into Side B of the Control Box (ensure the control box is connected to the Cable Magazine using Cable E).

If the user removes their headset, Headtracking Mode will be disengaged automatically. This is a safety feature. Stow the Headtracker inside the recess area of the chair arms for protection and to reduce accidental loss. We like playing all sorts of experiences in Headtracking Mode, including adventure games, 1st person shooters and watching movies. Check out www.rotovr.com for a list of our favourite titles we recommend with Roto. Cockpit Mode: connect a gamepad*, wheel* or HOTAS*
Cockpit Mode is for great for games and experiences where it doesnt make sense to turn around 360 degrees with Headtracking. Flying and Racing games are examples of what we call Cockpit Games, where the player is usually drawn inside a cockpit environment. In Cockpit Mode, Rotos motorised turns are controlled directly by the game controller - and the chair movements are limited to 30 degreees left and right. This keeps the user facing the in correct general direction for the game whilst also offering massive immersive benefits. To activate Cockpit Mode:
Download and install the Roto PC Desktop application from our 1) website www.rotovr.com Connect Roto to the PC via USB (allow for any auto-installations) 2) Connect your gamepad, wheel or joystick (can be anything Windows 3) recognises as a USB HID game controller device). The device should show up in the Roto application. Roto VR is a UK Ltd company. Companies House: 9473421. VAT Reg: 241423444. 28 Church Road, Stanmore, Middlesex, HA7 4XR, United Kingdom www.rotovr.com 4) Using your mouse, tick the Cockpit Mode box Use accessories such as the Racing Pack mounts or Tablettes to set up your Roto devices as comfortably as possible. Before turning on Roto, ALWAYS check every wire is safely connected and there are no loose wires anywhere. When using a wheel or joyatick, ALWAYS ensure the accessory is firmly secured, screwed or clamped in position before turning Roto on. NEVER connect a device thats atop the Roto chair to anything off the chair. ONLY connect devices to the Control Box and through the stem of the Roto central pole. Use the USB cable from the Roto base to the PC to connect all the devices that are connected on the chair. DANGER: Cables will start to wind up extremely quickly if not secured properly, which can lead to serious property and personal injury. Roto VR Ltd accepts no responsibility or liability for any harm or damage caused through misuse.
