A few months ago Google unveiled its new VR headset named Daydream View. Google also showed us the onstage demo and gave us the idea of what should we expect from this new device. The Daydream View is now officially available in few countries. You can either buy it online from the or get it from the official retailers.
Following is the list of countries that are currently selling the Daydream VR,
- United States
- Canada
- United Kingdom
- Germany
- Australia
Unlike the other VR headset the Daydream View doesn’t look like a chunky piece of plastic, Google said when they were designing the Daydream View they didn’t want to make a piece of gadget they wanted to build the product that the people will like to wear, they took inspiration from fabric and the clothes we wear in our day to day life.Which is something that first time someone has ever done.
The Daydream View comes up with a corresponding controller which will allow the users to interact with objects in the virtual reality. Google showed a demo of the new Fantastic Beasts and where to find them a game where the operator is using the controller as a wand. Google said the new controller is so accurate and sensitive that you can write with it. The Daydream View also features a loop container for the new remote so when you are not using it you can just put the controller on the headset.
The Daydream View only works with the Google Pixel smartphones presently, with support to more eligible android devices coming soon in the near future.
