This is James.
Like a lot of us, he's
heard about virtual reality.
But he hasn't had time
to figure it all out.
Got it James.
We can help.
Here's Consumer
Reports VR cheat sheet.
Let's start with something
easy-- watching a 360 degree
video on your computer.
You can find them on YouTube,
Facebook, and other websites.
All you have to do is use
your mouse or these letters
on your keyboard to look around.
You can even do
it on your phone.
Turn around to get a
360 degree perspective,
because just moving your
smartphone changes your view.
Want even more VR?
Download a virtual reality
app and slip that smartphone
into a cardboard viewer or
virtual reality headset.
Yup-- the cardboard viewer
actually works pretty well.
OK.
Now it's time to really
immerse yourself in VR.
Grab a computer and hook
up a high-end headset.
What do you think?
Safari?
Skydiving?
Oh I know.

Well, OK, James.
That's enough.
Time to give it back.
Oh, all right.
