BeThere Immersive — Day-Before VR Event Checklist
Beginner‑Friendly • ~30–45 min. This guide walks you through a simple day‑before routine so your VR demos run smoothly on event day. No tech jargon—just clear steps and checkboxes.
VR headset + controllers (in case you use them)
Charger + USB‑C cable and wall plug
Power strip + extension cord (venue outlets are rarely close)
4–6 spare AA batteries (for controllers)
Cleaning kit: alcohol‑free face‑pad wipes, 2 microfiber cloths for lenses, disposable face covers (optional)
Protective carrying case + lens cover
Table signage and a paper or tablet sign‑up form (no QR codes) + pens
✅ Headset fully charged; controllers charged / fresh AA in each; spares packed
✅ App opens from the taskbar (fallback: Library → Unknown Sources works)
✅ Mode = Career Fair and Play 2D Video = OFF in the app
✅ The Go button is centered after you recenter
✅ Dry‑run reset loop is ≤ 30 seconds (Start → Exit → Reset)
✅ Seated option, hygiene kit, and Stationary Guardian verified
✅ Lead‑capture form visible with pens/tablet; quick script rehearsed
✅ Contingency items packed (AAs, power, wipes, microfibers, lens cover)
Tomorrow morning you’ll only need a 1‑minute quick check: power on, recenter, volume, wipe, start.
[ ] Headset at 100%; controllers charged or fresh AA installed
[ ] Pack 4–6 spare AA batteries
[ ] Pack power strip, extension cord, USB‑C cable, and wall plug
[ ] Cleaning kit ready: alcohol‑free face‑pad wipes, two microfibers (lenses), optional disposable covers
[ ] Protective case packed; lens cover installed when not in use
[ ] Table signage and paper/tablet sign‑up form (no QR) + pens
[ ] Power on the headset
[ ] Run any updates today (don’t update at the venue)
[ ] Set Stationary Guardian while facing a wall that matches the aisle direction
[ ] Recenter while facing that wall (hold the Meta button on the right controller; with hands, use the system menu and select *Recenter*)
[ ] Set brightness to comfortable, volume to mid‑high (you’ll fine‑tune on site)
Why face a wall? It keeps your app’s Go button pointing toward the aisle so guests don’t turn their backs to traffic.
[ ] Open Library → BeThere Immersive 360
• If you don’t see it: Library → Unknown Sources → open once, then pin it to the taskbar
[ ] In Settings: set Mode = Career Fair
• Use Demo mode only when traffic is very light
[ ] Play 2D Video = OFF (ensures immersive VR)
[ ] Confirm the Available Experiences list shows the correct name/track
[ ] Land on the Go screen; recenter so Go sits in the middle while facing your “aisle” wall
[ ] Hand Tracking = ON (Quick Settings → Hands & Controllers)
[ ] Practice opening the Universal Menu (right palm up → pinch the icon) and Library
[ ] Verify controller assist works (A/Trigger = select, B = back, Meta = menu)
[ ] Lighting check for your booth spot: even light, no harsh backlight from windows/doors
Tip: Even lighting makes hand tracking and inside‑out tracking more reliable.
Goal: Start → Exit → Reset in a smooth loop. Do it 5 times and time yourself.
Start
[ ] Hover on Go → pinch (hands) or press A/Trigger (controller)
Exit
[ ] Left palm up → Exit Video (or press the left menu / hamburger button)
Reset (≤ 30 seconds)
[ ] Wipe face pad + lenses
[ ] Recenter facing the aisle wall
[ ] Quick volume check
[ ] Confirm Go is centered
Include these in your 5 runs:
[ ] One loop uses a controller for a tiny on‑screen button
[ ] One loop is seated (comfort rehearsal)
[ ] Save a 15–30s clip of your smoothest loop (confidence check)
[ ] Seated option ready (stable chair); default to seated for older or anxious visitors
[ ] Wipe face pad after each visitor; microfiber on lenses only; let the pad air‑dry
[ ] Sunlight safety: keep lenses covered when not in use; avoid direct sun through windows/doors
[ ] Stop rule rehearsed: “You can stop anytime—left palm up → Exit Video.”
Place your form where the operator can reach it without leaving the guest.
[ ] Paper or tablet sign‑up form ready and labeled
[ ] Rehearse this quick prompt:
“Could you picture yourself in that role?”
[ ] If **yes**, ask:
“Great—may I note your name and best contact for next steps?”
Assign three lightweight roles (one person can wear two hats if needed):
* Greeter (invites the line)
Script: “Two‑minute VR tour—hands only. Pinch Go to start.”
* Operator (runs headset flow)
Script before start: “Stop anytime—left palm up → Exit Video.”
* Lead Capture (collects contact info)
Script: “If this fit your goals, can I get your name and best contact for next steps?”
[ ] Print a small contact sheet: event lead, venue contact, support contact
Memorize this order (fast to slow):
1. Exit Video
2. Quit app
3. Recenter
4. Relaunch app
5. Restart headset (last resort)
[ ] Keep an “Escalate” note on your phone: issue, where it happened, steps tried, repeatable?, short clip, lighting/environment notes
[ ] Spares within arm’s reach: AA batteries and wipes
[ ] Booth spot chosen: even lighting, steady traffic, no backlight
[ ] Power access confirmed; extension cord allowed; tape down trip hazards
[ ] Table height set; signage readable; lead‑capture form at front‑right
[ ] Transport plan + arrival time confirmed; parking/load‑in known
