Before its test: the Homido virtual reality headset for iPhone and Android in photos

If we talk about reality
virtual, the first name that comes to mind is obviously Oculus
Rift. A helmet designed specifically to give this spherical 3D vision to
its user. Except that it is not yet marketed to the general public
and remains very expensive. Since then, Google in particular has imagined reducing the cost of
this technology inusing a screen that we already have, that of
smartphone
. It is
the CardBoard project mentioned here
, an assembly made of lenses and
cardboard which allows everyone to experience virtual reality.

But cardboard is good, except that it's neither sturdy nor really easy
to be settled. So French societyHominid
created a more complete solution withadjustment dials for
adapt to different morphology and optical adapters for
possible myopia
.

This helmet,financed on a platform
participative
, is now available. Compatible with iPhone and
smartphones running Android, it allows you to take advantage of Virtual Reality apps
at home now!

We received it yesterday, neither one nor two, here it is in photos to discover it
together before its full test in a few days:

The helmet offers an adjustment of interpupillary distance, distance
eye-screen and 3 optical supports to be able to adapt the sharpness to
different degrees of myopia.
