VR Content Presentation
Each student must give a ~5 minute presentation on a VR app for smartphones or a VR video.
App/video URL need to be entered into the wiki page on TritonEd, for the date you want to do your presentation on. You need to enter your presentation date by Monday, April 10th, 11:59pm. You can add or change the URL after this deadline. And you can change the date as long as time slots are available. There are 5 time slots on each lecture day.
You don't need to prepare slides or bring a computer (but you can). For the app, the instructor will open its page in the app store. The instructor will play your video from his laptop, with the audio muted. You need to talk over the video explaining what is shown, and how the video was created. Both app and video need to run on your phone in the MergeVR viewer, or a different one you provide (eg, Gear VR, Daydream). You need to be ready to show a demo in class.
It may be helpful to bring a notes sheet to use during the presentation. While the video plays you can request jumps to specific times in the video, or to pause the video. When the video ends, the instructor can start it over for you.
If you don't have a phone to run app and video on and you can't borrow one, please contact the instructor.
Merge VR viewers can be borrowed at no charge from the Media Teaching Lab. They have about 40 units. To allow everyone to borrow one at some point during the quarter, please return your viewer after your presentation is done.

How to Find a Suitable App and Video
- App/video needs to be able to run in Google Cardboard mode, i.e., render separately for each eye, so that it can be viewed with a VR viewer.
- App/video does not need to render in 3D stereo. It's preferred that it does. State during your presentation if it shows in stereo or just surround mono.
- App/video needs to support head orientation changes so that the viewer can see the scene around them by turning their head.
- Good places to start for 360 degree VR videos:
- Within the Google Cardboard app for Android or iOS
- Youtube's VR channel
- The New York Times VR app
