Field of View (FOV)

Field of View (FOV) defines an observable area or the range of vision seen via an XR device such as HMD when the user is static within a given XR environment. The standard human FOV is approximately 200 degrees, but in the immersive experience it may vary.
A higher FOV contributes to a more immersive feeling.
