"IR Books." Do I need a VR headset? You do not need a VR headset to use the IR Books App; a 2D video of each experience is available. However, we highly recommend using a VR headset or Google Cardboard that is compatible with smartphones to take full advantage of the 360 video experience. What type of VR headsets work with IR Books? Any VR headset that can be inserted into your smartphone will work. We recommend using the Google Cardboard VR headset provided by your public library for IR Books. Each book contains three QR codes that lead to Virtual Reality (VR) or Augmented Reality (AR) experiences to be viewed through the IR Books app on a smartphone. Without the VR headset, the VR experiences can be viewed as 2D videos. Includes glossary. "This version is a partnership between Library Ideas, LLC and Bellwether Media, Inc ... Original edition and text copyright Bellwether Media, Inc. Text and narration in the IR Books app is original material by Library Ideas, LLC." -- title page verso.
