Premium clarity in a headset that almost disappears
In virtual reality, the weight of the headset can make the difference between a comfortable session and a fatiguing experience. The Pimax Dream Air are designed to reduce that feeling of burden thanks to their ultra-lightweight structure, ergonomic face mask, and adjustable and modifiable back strap.
For simracing, this is especially important: during long stints, endurance races, or continuous training, a lightweight headset allows you to maintain focus on the track, car, and visual cues. The combination of Micro-OLED and DisplayPort provides a clean, stable, and uncompressed image, ideal for those who want high definition without sacrificing comfort.
ConcaveView Pancake: wide field of view in a compact form factor
Pimax's ConcaveView Pancake lenses are designed with a three-layer structure, including a concave top layer. This configuration allows for one of the widest fields of view among small-form-factor Micro-OLED headsets, while maintaining very high clarity.
The result is a more natural experience in VR games, flight simulators, and virtual driving, with better spatial perception and a more immersive view than many traditional compact headsets.
Eye tracking and DFR to make the most of your PC
120 Hz eye tracking allows for Dynamic Foveated Rendering, a technology that concentrates maximum graphic quality in the exact area you are looking at and reduces the load on peripheral vision.
In demanding simulators, where resolution and fluidity are key, DFR helps improve performance without sacrificing sharpness at the focal point. This allows for better adaptation of the headset to current gaming PCs, especially when combined with adjustable render resolution from Pimax Play.
Two tracking versions for different setups
The Pimax Dream Air are available in two tracking variants, designed for different needs.
| Version | Tracking | Controllers | Hand Tracking | See-through | Tracker Support |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lighthouse | Outside-in with base stations | Not included | Not integrated | Not compatible | Compatible with SteamVR Trackers |
| SLAM + Controllers | Inside-out with 4 cameras | 2 6DoF controllers included | Integrated | Compatible | Not compatible |
The SLAM version is the most practical option for getting started without external base stations. The Lighthouse version is better suited for setups that already use SteamVR stations and compatible trackers.
