How to use Headset simulation

Go to the Space menu -> Scene tab -> 3 dots menu -> Start AR FOV Simulation. Or go to the Settings -> AR Sim tab and turn on the toggle.

The field of view (FOV) can be set via custom preset values based on released AR headset specs, Magic Leap, Hololens 1/2, etc.

Also, all objects in your space can be set to additive material to further simulate AR headset limitations.
