Cardboard is actually very unique and kinda cool. You have to download
the Google Cardboard app which gets you a split screen view that combines into
a 3D image. Once you get the cardboard you fold it and put your phone
inside. There is a magnet on the side of the cardboard that mimics a
touch screen to make selections. It pretty much allows you to experience
a virtual world without spending lots of money.
A really cool part of this design is that it doesn't take much to
work this cardboard device, and you do not have to spend that much money on it
either. It is super easy to use, especially for people who are not very
tech savvy and would like to experience a virtual world.
How it works: Get the app (stated above), place your phone
inside the cardboard, then hold the cardboard with the phone inside of it up to
your eyes. You can use Google Cardboard from anywhere, ranging from your
couch to even the outdoors. It is an awesome way to escape reality for a
little while at least. I think that this is a really cool thing that has
been invented because it is cheap anyone can purchase it and its super fun to
experience something 3D.
Here is a video of the Google Cardboard and how it actually works!
It's really cool check it out! :)
