Download the Software from the link in the menu. Choose the most recent one available on the releases page. Pick up the .zip file.

Right click on the saved .zip file and choose Extract All. Pick a folder to save it to. Open Headtracker.exe from this folder which will start the GUI (Graphical User Interface).

If you see that Windows Protected your PC, this is expected. Windows is doing that for applications that are not from the Microsoft Store. Click "More Info" and "Run anyway". Be careful. Never do that for other applications with unclear origin.

Once the GUI is opened the first step is to flash the firmware on your Nano. See Flash Firmware for guide.

Windows 7+8 Users

Windows 7+8 will need the Arduino Nano 33 BLE driver installed. It is included with the GUI under drivers/dpinst-amd64.exe
