+- **Platform abstraction** using vtable pattern
+- **Stub implementations** for testing without hardware
+- **Modular design** allowing independent component testing
+
+### Key Algorithms
+1. **Quaternion Rotation**: Full 3D rotation math for head/hand orientation
+2. **Distortion Mesh**: Grid-based texture warping for lens correction
+3. **Pose Prediction**: Velocity-based extrapolation for latency compensation
+4. **Ray-Plane Intersection**: Efficient UI interaction detection
+5. **HRTF Processing**: Spatial audio positioning
+
+### Performance Optimizations
+- Pre-calculated distortion meshes (40×40 grid)
+- Circular buffers for tracking history

+## 🚀 Usage Example
+
+```c
+// Initialize VR system
+VRManager *vr = vr_manager_create();
+VRConfig config = {
+    .platform = VR_PLATFORM_OPENXR,
+    .renderWidth = 2048,
+    .renderHeight = 2048,
+    .renderScale = 1.0f,
+    .targetFPS = 90.0f
+};
+vr_manager_init(vr, &config);
+
+// Main rendering loop
+while (running) {
+    vr_manager_begin_frame(vr);
+
+    // Get tracking data
+    HeadTrackingData head = vr_manager_get_head_pose(vr);
+    XRInputState input = vr_manager_get_input_state(vr);
+
+    // Render game content
+    VideoFrame frame = capture_game_frame();
+    vr_manager_render_frame(vr, &frame);
+
+    // Monitor performance
+    VRPerformanceMetrics metrics = vr_manager_get_performance_metrics(vr);
+    if (metrics.fps < 80.0f) {
+        vr_manager_enable_foveated_rendering(vr, true);
+    }
+
+    vr_manager_end_frame(vr);
+}
+
+vr_manager_destroy(vr);
+```
