Monado

Monado is an open-source software framework designed for virtual reality (VR) systems running on Linux. It enables Linux-based computers to connect with and run VR headsets like the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. By providing the necessary drivers and tools, Monado allows developers and users to experience VR content without relying on proprietary software typical of Windows or other platforms. It aims to improve compatibility, performance, and accessibility for Linux VR applications. Essentially, Monado makes Linux a viable platform for immersive virtual reality experiences by bridging hardware and software support.
