3D SBS Stereo for Cardboard 2.3

This application enables users to view high-definition 3D stereo videos and accommodates various VR devices, including those with dual displays or smartphone-based non-display VR glasses.

Typical video formats supported include SBS (Side-by-Side), 3D, Oculus Rift, and Google Cardboard. These videos are recorded with stereoscopic cameras, resulting in separate images for the left and right eyes when in SBS format. Viewing these videos requires compatible hardware such as 3D televisions or VR goggles like Oculus Rift or specialized glasses (not Google Glass).

Users can connect an iPhone or iPad directly to compatible VR glasses via VGA or HDMI adapters, facilitating a true 3D viewing experience akin to watching a real three-dimensional film. Additionally, there are options that utilize glasses without built-in screens, such as Samsung Gear VR, Google Cardboard, or Zeiss VR One, where the smartphone is inserted into the device to serve as the display.

Among these options, Google Cardboard offers a cost-effective solution, typically priced around 8 USD, providing an accessible entry point for immersive 3D viewing with compatible smartphones.
