Play desktop games while in VR! No need for keyboard and mouse, you can use your VR controllers to emulate key presses, mouse movement, or even a joystick! Create custom bindings for each controller, and play your favorite games from the comfort of VR!

This is an overlay application, meaning that it can be played on top of other VR experiences! Your controls can be automatically locked when the handheld is enabled. Double tap your controllers to enable or disable the handheld! You can edit your settings from the SteamVR dashboard.

You can use the handheld's dual-screen functionality to put a different window or monitor on each screen, allowing for multitasking or dual-screen gaming!
