I'd hope you could run a USB peripheral like Leap Motion from the USB port in a Vive headset while using one of the upcoming wireless VR solutions. Is that not the case, due to bandwidth already being maxed out by the headset?

They never say which frequency or frequency ranges they are using for said wireless.

All I can find is a "Each Kit supports 30 Mbps of bandwidth and 4 USB devices" quote on their website.

They say it won't interfere with other wireless devices so I assume they are using a frequency lower than 2.4 gigahertz?

That's something we'll have to find out.
As soon as I have my hands on a finalized wireless kit I will be testing that sort of thing.

There is no way that they could the FCC States what Ranges we can use. I bet it is in the 5GHz there are 130+ non over lapping channels and can use channel bonding.

Why don't they use the already existent wireless usb protocol?
