Virtual Reality:
Manual and How-tos
Virtual Reality far surpasses regular 3D video by turning your viewing
experience into something that is quite simply out of this world. Watch a
VR video on xHamster, and you’re more than a mere observer, you’re
part of the realistic action!
To enjoy the full VR experience all you need is a smartphone (for motion
tracking) and a headset (for full VR with 3D) such as Google Cardboard.
With virtual reality you'll no longer just watch videos, it is a transforming
once-passive experience into a far more interactive one. You are no
longer simply sitting and watching the video content; you are feeling
and experiencing it.
While Virtual Reality can utilise a 360 degree scope, xHamster's VR video
content is mostly shot with an 180° or 220° eld of view. This reduces
le sizes to speed video bu ering by skipping the view to walls behind
the juicy hardcore action.

VR Headset
To achieve that “look everywhere” and hear
that stereo surround sound e ect you'll need
a VR headset. The very rst fully VR model is
the Samsung Gear, which works with certain
Samsung mobile phones. By inserting your
phone into the headset and downloading the
“Within Gear VR” app from either the Oculus
or Samsung Milk VR stores, you can
download and enjoy Virtual Reality videos.
Other headsets of the same generation
including the Sony PlayStation VR headset,
the Oculus Rift headset and the HTC Vive
headset which use your computer or game
console as a virtual technology engine. For
these, you’ll download the speci c “Within
VR” app for each platform.

Even without a VR headset, goggles or

experience by using your mobile device or
tablet on its own. To do it, download the
Within app for Android or iPhone. Once the
app is installed, download individual videos,
hit the play button, then simply move your
mobile phone around to enjoy the “arti cial

realistic stereo sound.
