Instructions for Viewing VR Content

Viewing the VR content in the methods section requires using your mobile phone and the Google Cardboard viewer and app.

Before loading the video, ensure the follow:

  • Google Cardboard (the app) is downloaded and updated on your phone. If not, download from here or by scanning the QR code on your Google Cardboard viewer.
  • Google Cardboard will require an initial set-up process before working for other applications.

To leave Cardboard view, take your phone out of the viewer and click the arrow at the top left corner of your screen.
