The application of the Cardboard camera looks something like this, and a sample panoramic picture is displayed on the screen.
Search by scrolling and tap one of the samples to select it.
Since panoramic photos are displayed, tap the Cardboard icon at the bottom of the screen.
A guide appears so that the smartphone fits into the Cardboard.
When I looked at Cardboard with my smartphone installed, the panorama picture just before was displayed as VR.
By turning around, you can see the back side and so on and you can see panoramic photos of 360 degrees stereoscopically in a blink of an eye.
While still wearing Cardboard, select another panorama photo.
You can also see another view as much as you wish. In addition, the application also has a function to add the sound that was recorded at the time of shooting to the photo, making it possible to make crisp VR photos with realistic feeling than ordinary panoramic photos.
