Pinc Lets You Harnesses the Power of Virtual Reality on the Go
Laura McQuarrie — November 24, 2014 — Tech
Pin? VR is a case accessory for the iPhone 6 that comes with a free app in order to take mobile computing and virtual reality experiences to the next level. The project comes from Digital Agency Cordon Media Inc. and aims to make virtual reality more accessible for tasks like browsing the web or viewing a video on a mobile device.
In developing the virtual reality phone case, the challenge was to create a product for the mass market that rang in at under $100. When not in use, the case can be folded up neatly, just like a pair of glasses. The phone case and headset is even paired with digital rings for your fingers, so that you can take advantage of multi-touch gestures.
Now, Pin? VR is crowdfunding on Indiegogo, aiming to refine the design, manufacturing and machining before it comes to market.
