Onsen: PLAY Virtual Reality Device for Smartphones from PARALO, Simply slip in your smartphone and you'll have a Head-mounted Display, I had a vision in the Harbin warm pool this morning - of combining the virtual earth of Google Maps / Google Earth with Google group video Hangouts with 10 live people speaking and interacting together IN Google Earth and even in a virtual Harbin Hot Springs' warm pool ... kinda great, I'd guess that Google folks have already envisioned this and the infrastructure code could even be written for this at Google but I'd also like to explore it for a) ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy, b) soaking in the Harbin warm pool virtually, and c) NtF un-programmed Quaker Meeting, and from my bathtub even, virtually d) even "entering into" Grateful Dead videos, for example

PLAY Virtual Reality Device for Smartphones - from PARALO http://www.coolwearable.com/play-virtual-reality-device/ - GREAT




Added to Hardware_Resource_Possibilities ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Hardware_Resource_Possibilities and Wearable_Electronics ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Wearable_Electronics :) These  wiki schools, eventually for accrediting courses, are planned in many countries' main languages. 

See, too -

Simply slip in your smartphone and you'll have a Head-mounted Display. 





Students at World University and School could explore making such at home as well in courses for credit.

This is similarly cool too - which will look the best?

... but the above Paralo device is so simple ...

Very cool and for a virtual Harbin and from our bathtubs even -

and for ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy and even meditation.

*
Such a Head-mounted Display with smartphone could also be a "meeting place" for Non-theist Friends' Quaker Meeting (Quaker Meeting in the manner of un-programmed Friends), which I think of as meditation with sharing ... and I'd explore this from my bathtub for deepening the releasing action or centering of Quaker Meeting.



I had a vision in the Harbin warm pool this morning - of combining the virtual earth of Google Maps / Google Earth with Google group video Hangouts with 10 live people speaking and interacting together IN Google Earth and even in a virtual Harbin Hot Springs' warm pool ... kinda great. 

I'd guess that Google folks have already envisioned this and the infrastructure code could even be written for this at Google but I'd also like to explore it for 

a) ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy, 
b) soaking in the Harbin warm pool virtually, and 
c) NtF un-programmed Quaker Meeting, and from my bathtub even, virtually  
d) even "entering into" Grateful Dead videos virtually, for example




Could we also enter into, for example, a 1960's Grateful Dead concert video in Google Earth with a modified Google group video Hangout and be there?
