I have always been a big fan of virtual reality but haven’t been following it for a long time. Somewhere on the net I heard about Google Cardboard and I thought i give it a shot. I didn’t have very high expectations because it is made just of carton, lenses and magnets. To my suprise the experience was awesome.

There are several software (emulator) to run android apps on your windows or mac computer. I tried so far BlueStacks and Genymotion. BlueStacks made a cluttered and slow impression and Genymotion worked smoothely and fast.
Here you can download Genymotion:
Genymotion
If you want to install Android apps on Genymotion you need to install Google Play Store first. Follow this step by step:
1. Create a virtual device
2. Download the right Google Play Store version
3. Drag&Drop the zip file in the running virtual device
4. Let it install and restart the device
5. Run Google Play Store and run all updates

I just downloaded the newest version of Google Earth and noticed that you can explore the planet mars now. How cool is that? I recommend you to download it and do the tour guide. It is quite impressive. |

Google Map API is very powerful and can be integrated into your webpage. As long as everybody can access the maps in your webpage for free you don’t have to pay for the service. Even it is used commercially. I just start to learn the API and found a very helpful online tutorial. Especially don’t forget to check out the webpage.
