How to Watch VR180

Step-by-step viewing instructions for iPhone, smartphone VR goggles, and Meta Quest 3.

ABOUT

What is VR180?

VR180 is a stereoscopic video format that lets you view the 180-degree space in front of you in 3D.
Separate images are prepared for the left and right eyes to reproduce binocular disparity.
This creates a stronger sense of distance, depth, and three-dimensionality than ordinary video.

With a headset such as an iPhone + VR goggles or Meta Quest 3, the view follows the direction of your head.
You can also watch on an iPhone alone like a normal video when using VRPlayer.
