5/8/2016 Note as of Fall 2015, the "new" Google Cardboard viewers have been modified so that they can work without magnets, and accommodate larger devices. The number of VR video content has dramatically increased. See www.youtube.com/360 to preview many amazing view compatible videos. After you download this free app and fold together the cardboard (yes real cardboard) viewer, this is a low-cost way to try VR experiences. In the original Google Cardboard app (released in 2014) there are four modes: explorer, exhibit, urban hike and kaleidoscope. You'll need the Cardboard viewer sold from many sources for about $10. Learn more at http://g.co/cardboard. As of October 2015, supported devices include iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 5s, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c. Demos include • Earth: Fly to places on Google Earth. • Tour Guide: Visit Versailles with a local guide. • YouTube: Watch popular YouTube videos on big screen. • Exhibit: Examine cultural artifacts from every angle. • Photo Sphere: Look around the photo spheres you've captured. • Windy Day: Follow the story (and the hat) in this interactive animated short from Spotlight Stories.
