The headset comes with two controllers, a "ring controller" that will manipulate objects and a "pointing controller" for aiming. Sony says that by using the controllers and a keyboard, creators can model 3D objects in real-time.
The headset also has a "video see-through" mode with a total of six cameras and sensors embedded into the device. The front of the device can be flapped up so that users can return to their work without having to take the headset off completely.
