	Unlike seated or standing VR, room scale VR requires space to use. For HTC Vive, [[HTC Vive#Play Area Requirements\|play spaces]] can range from as small as 2 x 1.5 meters to 3.5 x 3.5 meters. Users will generally define this space via the mounting of [[base stations]] and then tracing the area using their [[SteamVR Controllers\|controllers]]. For added safety, Vive headsets include a forward facing camera and [[Chaperone]] software that can be used to take a peek into real life and warn them if they approach an object such as a piece of furniture or a pet.
