How to Cast The Quest 3S VR Headset

Article Overview

Casting allows activity inside a Meta Quest 3S headset to be viewed in real time on a nearby computer or tablet. This is useful during Osso Nurse Training sessions when live observation, evaluation, or debriefing is needed.

Health systems may use one of two casting methods depending on how devices were set up. Confirm the applicable method with the device administrator.
