VR and 360° Videos

If you've been around on YouTube you have probably seen some 360° Virtual Reality (VR) videos, and maybe even 3D videos. The 3D videos required colored anaglyph glasses and were sometimes unwatchable without them. There was even a 3D Video Editor App on YouTube for a while which disappeared around the time of Google Cardboard and the popularity of VR viewers. We can now simply put our smartphones into a VR headset to enjoy 360° videos, games, and other content,.
