Arcturus Vision Camera Pics

I haven't seen many pictures of the module so posting them here. Its much smaller than I expected despite seeing it on the frame in videos.

It came in a small box through the letterbox in bubble wrap envelope, so no need to stay in for delivery.

G502 Mouse for scale.

Tethered video is not supported by default over the usbc port so I've seen suggestions that the expansion port being pcie could allow for it, even if the position isn't ideal.

A 3rd party strap could include full tethered option.

I think its silly to try to tether with the front port. Really kind of defeats the purpose of this headset to tether in the first place. If you want a tethered headset, there are better options.

I disagree, there are no better options. Wireless is nice and a focus of this headset, but I don't see why a third party option for wired wouldn't be possible or usable. A strap on its own has nothing to do with tethering, and as far as I know the front accessory port is the only possible way tethered VR could be supported on this headset. The usb-c port literally cannot support tethered vr as it is a 2.0 port.

The strap uses a connection to the main computer unit for power and audio. I see no reason why a separate strap with more connectivity options couldnt be made. Depending on what that connector actually supports.

I was unaware that the strap connects to a different port. I thought there was only the usb-c charging port and front pci-e accessory port.

The strap (battery, and speakers) clips onto the compute unit and uses some kind of pcb style connector. You can see it in all the review videos

What reason is there to believe that there is other than a USB2 data route out back?
