Virtual reality has been talked about for years, but it’s finally here—and accessible for anyone with a smartphone. The VR KiX headset lets you access the many virtual reality games and apps on Google’s rapidly growing public platform, Cardboard. Place your phone inside the virtual reality goggles and it turns the screen into an immersive, 360-degree experience. Move your head to explore the amazing new surroundings—fight off alien invaders, watch a concert like you’re there, or take a tour of a foreign land. To create 3D environments, VR KiX uses a technique called stereoscopy that shows an offset image to each eye. Your brain combines those images, which gives a realistic impression of dimension and depth. Founder Joe Elichaa wanted to create a headset that was better than the competition. He added vents to help keep your phone cool and a secure tray to hold it. Then, to keep you comfortable, he included padded face cushions and an adjustable design.
