Beyond Cardboard is Google's Daydream

Google has already announced its next VR project Daydream. It is an andriod based VR headset that will be compatible with newer smartphones and Andriod N. Technologically far superior than cardboard, this headset goes a step ahead in hardware & software optimization for VR.

The next version of andriod is all ready for Google Daydream with a fully functional VR mode. According to Google's initial announcements, there will be a wide range of Apps available for Daydream. Besides YouTube, Google Play Store, Play Movies and Google Photos will also get a VR update specifically designed for Daydream & Andriod N.

Although, Daydream promises a far better VR experience than Google Cardboard, but it still needs a Daydream ready Andriod N smartphone to work. It is reported that Google will partner with some of the leading smartphone manufacturers to build VR optimized next generation Daydream ready smartphones.

With Google's growing interest in VR technology, it is believed that a new phase in VR research and development has began and it is only a matter of time when VR technology will truly revolutionize computer interaction.
