Smartphone VR Case Headset Brings VR To Your Pocket

What is the one thing that you bring everywhere you go? To the bathroom, to the kitchen, and possibly even to the grave? Your phone of course! And now the screen of your favorite device can be your portal to the world of virtual reality. Don’t have enough room in your bathtub for a VR headset? Try the Figment slim VR headset that snaps onto your phone! The days of Hello Kitty and rainbow unicorn phone cases are over, make way for the smartphone VR case headset. This cool gadget is exactly what it sounds like, an unbelievably slim VR eyepiece that can be attached to your phone. All it takes is the press of a button and the eyepiece springs into position, converting your phone into a VR headset.

You can now access VR content at anytime, anywhere. Whether you are standing in a line at a grocery store or are stuck in traffic that isn’t budging at all, just put on your VR headset and enter the kingdom of virtual reality. Even in the comfort of your home, why would you want to opt for a heavy and bulky headset when you can go for this feather light and slim VR headset instead. Although all good things come in small packages, they also come with some conditions attached. This headset may work, but it might not be as efficient, simply because the physical separation between the left eye’s content and the right eye’s content is missing. Also, since the slim VR headset sits on the back of your phone, scratched lenses are unavoidable, unless they are made from extremely abrasion resistant glass. The idea in itself is ingenious though, and we give full marks to Lee, Park, Jung and team for this brilliant design.
