The New Google Cardboard Visual Reality by jude33084(m): 8:22pm On Oct 06, 2015
Please who can help me with the new Google cardboard virtual reality specs.


It is no news that we can now turn our iPhones and androids into reality specs,....meaning you will now have a feel of being inside the movie!

How can I get it in Lagos?

You can actually build one your self, but the lenses and the magnets are the main issue. I ordered mime from Aliexpress. Still waiting for it sha

Will soon start selling and distributing the Google cardboard virtual reality viewer. There will be two versions ; a basic and an Elite. The Elite will have the following features
1. Bigger and clearer picture
2. Adjustable lens apature
3. Inbuilt earphones
4. Color variation
5. Beautiful packaging
Google listed about 5 phones it can work with but I've been able to make it work for any phone as long as the phone has the following dimensions
136.6 x 69.8 x 7.9 mm
However, I'm very busy at the moment but about 20 units will be avaliable by the end of this month.

Nice. Not only were you given a Bluetooth pad with it, the focal lens can also be adjusted. Must have cost a bundle. Have you tried Galaxy VR with it? I use a PS3 to play the game. It's like Star Fox on steroids.
Will start production tomorrow, please what's your location?
Re: The New Google Cardboard Visual Reality by Leopantro: 11:50am On Oct 15, 2015
Work in progress.
I utilized the latest design from Google that removed the use of magnets and used a conductive switch which is better as Tecno, opsson and a few other android devices I tried don't work with magnets. It's the silver switch at the top. Also, the design is stronger.

How did you do that? Haven't tried out films yet but from my research the apature for viewing cinema is different from the apature from viewing games.
I have over twenty VR apps I have tried out. Will be making a list of beautiful apps to try out. But, since you have a Bluetooth pad try out GALAXY VR. you will love it.
The cardboard viewers will be in Lagos next weekend.
BTW, does your screen drift to the left or right while viewing?

I can but I modified my template based on the focal length of the lens I utilized and the location of the magnets ; it might not work for you. If you can determine the focal length of the lens you are using, I can modify my template for you.

For those interested in DIY, magnets and lens will soon be avaliable.

The device converts certain videos or games on your phone into 3D, enabling you to see lenght, breath and depth. For example, while watching a film you see what the camera wants you to see. Imagine if you can enter the video and look anywhere you want to look

mehn,that will be insane, is it same with 3d glasses?
Re: The New Google Cardboard Visual Reality by ibawon(m): 11:36pm On Nov 17, 2015
My Google cardboard is just sitting eating dust why? Because of no Gyroscope support. If you wanna buy any VR GADGET make sure your phone has Gyroscope surpport and be sure cos most lie about their specs.

Its not a complete waste. You can still watch 3D movies with it. Download VR CINEMA FOR CARDBOARD and try a few videos. ( will post a few 3D video links very soon). You can also try this game, SPACE VR DEMO FOR CARDBOARD. it requires your phones compass only, no Gyroscope needed. If you search Google you will come across some games that can be played without Gyroscope.

BTW, I recall when you assembled your cardboard and posted the pictures. Considering the short time period and the underuse due to lack of Gyroscope, that viewer looks like it wouldn't survive another month.
