Samsung Gear VR

You've probably heard of the Oculus Rift and Sony's Project Morpheus, well Gear VR is supposedly Samsung's answer. It's a virtual reality headset (hence the VR in the name) which developers are already testing, according to rumours and Samsung is hurriedly working order to launch the product at IFA.

It will apparently work only with high-end Samsung devices. The virtual reality effect is possible through head-tracking using the docked smartphone's acceleromter, gyroscope and processing power. The Gear VR has an OLED display and runs the Tizen OS.
