VR Headset Recommendation

For VR teleoperation, Pico and Meta Quest are the primary tested headsets. Both can use WebXR (./run.sh vr) and XRoboToolkit (./run.sh vr-xrt). Pico Enterprise is the preferred Pico SKU: it supports USB shared networking (USB 网络共享) and uses a different headset App from Pico consumer.
