Virtual Reality Of The Cardboard

Distribution of cardboard helmets at google i/o

Google I/O made some pleasant news at the Google I/O conference, but the most unusual of the novel was created by a couple of Parisian staff in a 20 per cent-time free of basic work (yes, somewhere these rules are still in place). It's a simulation project. Virtual reality With the improvised VR helmet from the cardboard, which contains the Android smartphone. Smartphone shares the picture on the stereopard and even tracks the head!

The project is called Google Cardboard.

Smashing such a helmet is easy. We need to find a suitable piece of cardboard, two lenses, an intact magnet with a diameter of about 19 mm and a thickness of 3 mm, a rubber ring and a few lips. I'd like to stick to the NFC styker helmet for a more reliable interaction with the smartphone.

Step 1/3

Smartphone can react to magnetic motions, catching a change in the magnetic field through the built-in magnetometer. This is not working in the deck, but the developers are asked to make their own applications, and there are also documents for the developers.
