Tom’s Hardware said this type of virtual reality support help push ongoing commercial efforts. The site said, “The ability to visit a web page and immediately start poking around VR content--even if it's not as immersive as a dedicated VR headset would be--could help people better understand why VR can be so exciting.”
According to Forbes, this support now allows any device to their web browser into a virtual reality platform. Simply go on a WebVR-enabled site via Chrome and then navigate using a mouse for your laptop or desktop, or your fingers on your mobile device.If you have a DayDream-ready phone or a DayDream headset, you can have a full virtual reality experience using WebVR.
Google says users can expect more headsets to handle the virtual reality-enabled websites, including the most popular Google wearable, the Google Cardboard.
