What is the VRBox Headset
VRBox is quite simply the easiest, most convenient and affordable way to experience Virtual Reality today. Why spend thousands on a dedicated headset and PC to run it, when you can use your existing smartphone to power the world of VR!
Based on Google's 'Cardboard' technology the VRBox is constructed from high quality ABS plastic with 42mm spherical resin lenses to bring you picture perfect 3D effects.
The sliding phone tray lets you insert your 4.7" to 6.1" phone in seconds, up to and including iPhone 6 Plus and Samsung Galaxy Note series! Both the iOS App Store and Google Play Store already feature dozens of quality apps many of them free to have you experiencing VR within seconds.
What can I do with the VRBox Headset
Further down the page you will find a handful of recommended apps for both major platforms including many free ones, here's a summary of what you can expect to find:
Watch dedicated VR demo apps Take a trip back to the Jurassic era when dinosaurs roamed, or sit yourself on a virtual roller coaster and feel your stomach lurch as you drop steeply over a crest. There are already countless apps created to show off the immersive capabilities of VR with more appearing every day.
Watch movies Perhaps you'd prefer to just sit and watch instead Immerse yourself in a virtual cinema; look around at the seats, the projector, fellow patrons, the big screen then play movies from your own collection! There are also plenty of dedicated 'storytelling' apps designed specifically for VR, some of which will blow your mind.
Play VR games The included Bluetooth controller will let you interact with selected apps and games in a way that you have never done before. Save the world from a zombie apocalypse or navigate your way around an open world in which you feel part of the action, not just from the outside looking in.
How does the VRBox Headset work
The VRBox Headset is a one-size-fits-all design with a flexible, adjustable headband plus adjustable lens distance and focus. It easily adjusts to different head sizes and shapes, eyesight quality and even fits most people with their glasses still on. Once an app is loaded, insert the phone into the sliding holder, then back into the headset. The app will use your phone to render a pair of stereoscopic images which your eyes and brain will interpret as a single 3-dimensional image. Without the headset and lenses you will just see the pair of matching images.
Some apps may also require use of your phone's camera for Augmented Reality functions a second sliding panel easily opens access to let your camera see the outside world without ruining the immersion.
The included controller requires 2 x AAA batteries which are not included.
