IPD (interpupillary distance) is the distance between the pupils of the eyes.
Most adult humans have an IPD of about 63mm.
IPD can be measured in a number of ways.
Some VR headsets have an IPD adjustment. The Oculus Rift DK1, DK2, and HTC Vive have manual IPD adjustment. And the Valve index too.
Mirror measurement[edit]
IPD can be measured using a mirror.
It can be measured by standing close to a vertical mirror, and close one eye at a time. Each eye look directly into that eye on the mirror, use a marker to mark a spot on the mirror where the pupil is. The distance between the dots is a measurement of IPD.[1]
