Thank you for the suggestion. Previously I interned at a VR 
company and had some experiences writing code related to 
graphics, but I don't have any experience on embedded system 
programming, so I was wondering that do I need to buy a 
microcontroller or just testing it on PC would be enough? If it's 
the former one, could you give some suggestions on the starter 
kit?
