Immersive media tech company Matterport has introduced VR support for iPhone devices, after already being available to Android users. The Matterport VR app provides users with the option to publish any Matterport 3D space in VR.
The app comes pre-loaded with over 150 VR experiences. These experiences can be accessed via its iOS, Gear VR and Cardboard apps.
Bill Brown, CEO of Matterport said: “Companies that move quickly to integrate immersive media are going to deliver a better consumer experience and position themselves for long-term success.”
Matterport began offering 3D virtual tours of popular destinations and sites. In October, the company began to branch into VR with the launch CoreVR, which enables anybody with a Matterport Pro 3D camera to become a VR content creator.
Matterport says it has enabled CoreVR ‘free of charge for any 3D space created through June 2017 to allow both iOS and Android customers to experience just how easy it is to create their own VR spaces’. Bear in mind though, Matterport’s camera will set you back $4,500 (£3,652).
