Does the Cardboard Example Work on Vive and Oculus?

Does the Cardboard example at https://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Apps/Sandcastle/gallery/Cardboard.html work on WebVR devices or do you have to use Cesium-VR plugin https://github.com/NICTA/cesium-vr

I am wondering the same thing, specifically about Vive. Thanks!

The Cardboard example currently does not work on WebVR devices. I tried to add support several months back but there were a lot of issues. I haven’t tried with the latest update to the WebVR spec or the latest builds of Chrome and Firefox. You can give Cesium-VR a try, but it looks like it hasn’t been updated in a while. Let us know if you give it a try.

For Firefox, you need to install the WebVR plugin on a nightly build:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mozilla-webvr-enabler/

For Chrome, you need an experimental build:

The latest spec can be found here:
