"This is my first experience using Smartphone (Nexus6) and AR technologies. Due to the delay in delivery of items, this assignment has run into time and technical issues beyond my control"
Is it a viable tool as an emerging trend?
Wrapping Up
I was disappointed that I was not able to experience Google Cardboard and try out the Google apps for this experience. The headset I ordered from Google would have fit my phone. I was very disappointed I was not able to try it out. On the fly, I had to buy the Hoo Too pair. But, I did get the Hoo Too and Trinus to work. Above is a slideshow of my journey into AR & VR. It will take some more experimentation on part to get this feature to work using the Trinus app and software.
I am looking forward to my Google Cardboard which will fit Nexus6 mobile phone. I only know of two companies that make AR equipment large enough for the Nexus6 phone. So, in other words, your choice of Google compatible with AR is limited if you have a Nexus6.
They say hindsight is 20/20, had I known that Samsung and Oculus Rift were releasing the $99 VR set, I would have gone with a Samsung Smartphone.
Thanks for hanging in there with me and any suggestions would be appreciated to improve this webpage content.
