Company is devoted to increasing the virtual reality domain.Alphabet Inc. has debuted the VR View tool to assist developers in coming up with the ability to have 360 degree content on their sites. Panoramic content which is 360 degree has been limited to a few ambiguous places of the tech ecosystem as of yet, considering that not all sites cater to virtual reality content. The websites can now have an iframe added to it whereas applications can integrate VR Views.
On GitHub, the VR View code has been surfaced by the search engine giant that is open sourced enabling the developers to quickly link VR content to the websites.
It is said that the renowned social media behemoths like Twitter Inc. and Facebook Inc. should integrate the coding so that 360 degree videos can be posted by users. Facebook is supporting 360 degree videos but that requires the VR rigs ensuring that the scene has all the possible angles. Similar stitching software is used by photos and videos. However, it is easier to capture the 360 degree photographs. It is important for all the users even those who make use of the Cardboard camera app to rotate their smartphones in 360 to snap a picture.
Through a blog post, the Product Manager at Google, Mr. Nathan Martz claimed that the immersive elements present on a web site can actually make the apps and websites magical. The VR View enables the consumer to offer VR images in 360 degree via a Cardboard viewer or through a desktop.
Desktops are a great way to circulate and market the mainstream audience and 360 degree content to the consumers. Most of the users are not going to have a VR gear but irrespective of that, they will still be able to see 360 degrees photos and videos without any alterations.
Google is optimistic that the app makers will strive hard to get maximum benefit from the recent offering. The travel apps can make a 360 degree video that can be seen by tourist. Without the need to have customers over, the real estate agents can show a house. Entertainment, news app and websites can navigate to the location at the time of breaking news.
The company is now interested in coming up with the Software Development Kit (SDK) for the iOS version of Cardboard. This will allow the company to target the iOS devices whereas the Android variant was debuted in 2014. The company is more inclined to promoting its own OS but it understands that there is a need of mass penetration encouraging them to add to the iOS space.
Google Cardboard’s best part is its pricing. This is the prime reason why the sales of the geadset have reached the 5 million unit benchmark. The devices rival in the virtual reality domain is priced at $500 like the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and PlayStation VR where there are top notch PCs required to run these devices. Google Cardboard is thus a cheaper yet useful option for all those who wish to enjoy VR.
