Merge AR/VR Headset !

A robust and comfortable smartphone viewer!

Today we would like to introduce you to the Merge AR/VR headset. 

The Merge headset is a viewer for smartphone produced by the company Merge Labs, those who also made the famous Merge Cube. 

This headset allows you to do virtual reality but also augmented reality without holding the phone in your hands. It can be used with all CardBoard VR compatible applications such as Google Expedition, 360° video players or in AR, with the Merge Cube (of course).

The Merge headset is compatible with a wide variety of Android and iOS smartphones whose screen size can be between 4.8 and 6.2 inches. The user can thus enjoy a pleasant VR experience with a field of view of 96 ° (FOV).

Two control buttons also allow better interaction with the virtual environment.

User reviews are excellent about it. They appreciate the comfortable design of the headset, the adjustable strap and the affordable price of the device.

The Merge Headset is easy to use, all you have to do is insert your smartphone into the slot, launch a compatible app and off you go. It’s also water and shock resistant, making it very robust for classroom use. 

If you have tested it, please let us know what you think!
