I’m more interested in the virtual screens than the AR aspect. I’m perfectly fine to do this in a VR office I really don’t need to see the real world when doing this.
It’s in the published specs. The pass through cameras on the Steam Frame will be monochrome, but an expansion port exists that could support third party color cameras. They’ve said they prioritized game streaming features over AR.
Our HTC Vive (yeah, it’s not made by Valve, but it’s the Original SteamVR Headset and is kinda close enough) has a color passthrough camera. It’s really low res and useless for fancy AR but it’s great if you need to look around for a sec.
Pretty sure steam frames cameras will be black and white

Why do you say that? Valve’s last two VR headsets had full color cameras.

My Valve Index only has black and white cameras. And what other headset are you talking about? They never made more.
