Currently raising funds on Kickstarter, this platform is set to be a place where people can plug into 3D content with the use of their own virtual reality headset, such as an Oculus Rift, Samsung Gear VR, or a more affordable option. Just like YouTube, vcemo will be a place for users to upload their own VR content as well as experience it.
