 Note: There are two types of tracking that the Varjo XR3 uses:
-  * Unordered List Item
+  * Inside-Out Tracking
+    * Utilizes the Front-facing cameras to draw virtual boundaries around the player
+  * SteamVR
+    * Utilizes HTC Vive 2.0 Base Stations to track the position of the headset
+ **You can use either or, however, since our lab has Base Stations, we will use SteamVR**
+To change the tracking type, go to Varjo Base, click on System, and under Headset Tracking, change it to SteamVR.
+  * Calibration with SteamVR will not be shown in this tutorial. Tutorial for any headset utilizing SteamVR will be shown here (Add link for SteamVR calibration).
 ==== Connecting the Varjo XR3 to Unity ====
+In order to get our headset connected to Unity, we will require the following packages:
+  * SteamVR
+  * Varjo's Unity SDK
+Before installing the above-mentioned packages, please create a new Unity 2020+ 3D project and name it **Varjo_XR3_Intro**.
+Once the project has opened, go to the Asset Store, download SteamVR (if not already downloaded), and import it into your project.
+Once SteamVR has finished installing, you may now install the Varjo SDK for Unity
+Copy this Github link: https://github.com/varjocom/VarjoUnityXRPlugin
+Go back to Unity and press Window. Then scroll down to Package Manager.
+When the package manager opens, press the top left (+) icon and select add package from git URL. Paste the above GitHub link into the text box and press add.
+After a few minutes, the package should have installed the Varjo SDK into Unity!
+In the Asset section, search for the Player GameObject and drag it into the Hierarchy.
+And finally, hit play and put on the headset!
