put on a VR headset and you can
disappear into a new reality just don't
forget about that cord that keeps you
tethered to the real world the cord that
connects the headset to your computer
can be dangerous if you trip over it or
get tangled while you're moving in your
virtual space here's how to keep it out
of your way on the oculus rift make sure
the cord is secured into the clip on the
headset on the HTC vive check that it
slipped into the back loops on the
straps feed the cord into a carabiner
clip and clip it to your belt loop this
helps keep it off the floor so you can't
trip over it it works best if you clip
it to the back of your pants and pull a
little bit of slack so it stays out of
the way of your hands and arms no belt
loops put the cord into your waistband
with a binder clip when the cord is
close to your body you're less likely to
get tangled in it even if you spin
around keep the cord off your floor with
a cable holder or a binder clip on your
desk and make sure you keep enough slack
so you can move around but not so much
with the cord drags on the floor now
you're free to roam about your virtual
world without getting hurt and the real
one
