You can choose between navigating with your head or hand controller.

How to switch to hand controller navigation

  • When you log into OMS on your VR headset, check the “Laser Pointers” option at the bottom of the screen

  • When you have launched your OMS scenario look to the floor and open your Settings menu and check the “Laser Pointers” option
