	Blender VR is an open source, VR framework that is built on top of the [[Blender Game Engine]] (BGE). It is an adaptation of Blender Game Engine to support [[VR]] [[HMD]]s and external rendering modality engines.

	Blender is the first 3D tool that can integrate VR and a full stereographic pipeline into the regular 3D workflow.

Unlike other trial or educational versions of different software, Blender can be used commercially by artists, animators or studios to create their works.

	The interface of Blender VR is a GUI (Graphical User Interface) and is known as the console. The console is run by the user and the virtual environment is run by the blenderplayer. The console uses PySide but cannot import "bge" python module. the blenderplayer can import the module. The console allows the user to manually set the configuration file, simulation file and active screen set. All the relevant information is stored in the internal data store path and remains active across different running until it is changed via the GUI. The user can use the "run" feature to start/stop the simulation after defining all required parameters in the Blender VR console~~[4]~~.
