Device Readiness Check analyzes input by control and field of view in Unity projects. See how to use the tool without outsourcing acceptance.
Direct answer
On September 24, 2026, Meta published the Device Readiness Check, an experimental feature of the Meta XR Core SDK v207 for Unity projects. The tool performs a read-only scan, identifies control dependencies and field of view issues, and generates prioritized recommendations for Meta VR Glasses. Standard mode does not need AI; Assisted mode connects a provider to analyze code. Automatic corrections reduce configuration work, but comfort, hand precision, gauze, readability and performance still require human testing and testing on the target hardware.
Scan creates an objective queue
Prioritized findings help turn migration into a verifiable backlog, with automatic, manual, and AI-assisted items.
Standard mode preserves independence
Basic analysis checks configuration and input patterns without sending the project to an AI provider.
AI assistance requires code policy
Before connecting a provider, define which files can leave the environment, retention, secrets, contracts, and review suggestions.
Compatibility does not prove ergonomics
A reference to a controller can be fixed in the code, but gesture, fatigue, feedback, range and accessibility need testing with people.
Nexus Reading
Use the report as a technical gate, version the findings and combine it with headset sessions, frame budget and acceptance criteria per task.
FAQ
Does the tool change the project during scanning?
Meta informs that the scan is read-only; Changes happen only when a fix is explicitly applied.
Is it mandatory to connect an AI?
No. Standard mode works without a provider; assisted mode adds contextual code analysis.
Does it replace on-device testing?
No. Configuration and code are just part of the physical and performance experience.
