Google Cardboard requires a smartphone with stereoscopic display software, meaning it splits the phone screen into two parts, one for each eye. The headset is mostly carboard, and has lenses, a magnet, a piece of hook-and-loop fastener and a rubber band. With no official manufacturer, Google has listed the schematics and instructions for the device on its website. Users can either construct one themselves or purchase them from a number of unofficial vendors.
