VR hardware compatibility: Ensuring that the VR Public Speaking Simulator was compatible with a range of VR headsets was a challenge. The team had to take into account the different hardware specifications and software requirements of each headset, as well as ensuring that the experience was optimized for each device.

Realistic feedback: Providing realistic feedback was another challenge. The team had to design a feedback system that accurately reflected the user's performance and provided constructive criticism that was useful and actionable.
