Device baseline
Agree the headset, build, thermal state and representative interaction.
VR / XR · Optimization
Profile the headset build in a repeatable scene.
Diagnose the scene that fails on the target device. Separate rendering and application cost before reducing detail or changing interaction.
Example starting scope
A scene that runs on desktop but misses the headset budget.
Rendering and runtime
Measure stereo rendering, materials, content and CPU work on the target device.
Prioritized fixes
Deliver a diagnosis and the agreed changes with comparable device captures.
Relevant work
Metro VR · mobile environment
A first-hand example of modular scene production, baked lighting and atlas-based content under mobile constraints. Its published screenshots contain Unity Editor statistics; project-specific headset measurements are a separate deliverable.

What we check
Agree the result before implementation.
Headset evidence
Use on-device measurements for the agreed scenario and quality settings.
Experience review
Check interaction, visual quality and sustained behaviour alongside frame time.

VR optimization questions.
Can you optimize a project without rebuilding it?
Yes. The first step can be a focused audit that identifies the dominant bottlenecks and ranks the highest-value changes.
Do you optimize standalone headsets?
Yes. Standalone XR is specifically where device-side profiling and strict content budgets become most important.
