can it hook up to youtube? like is it just a headset you can put your phone in or is it something like the vive or oculus? because if it's the latter then i cant help you
If I remember correctly, there's an external program that monitors the orientation tracking data from the head set, and translates that into shifting around the Youtube 360 thing. As long as it's a headset that you can browse the internet through, it should work fine... Now if only I can get my brain to remember what the name of the external program was. I'll edit this reply if I succeed in remembering if I'm correct in my previously stated "belief" (and if I am, what the name of the program is) before someone else figures out for me. If I'm remembering incorrectly, I'll edit it as such. If someone else says it for me, this remains unedited.
Though before I click "post" and go search for confirmation/refutation of my assumption, I want to point out that if Defcon's gotten the Samsung Headset, then they just need to use the youtube app and full screen a video of a hypnotic spiral. The headset puts the phone close enough to the face that it will create a faux-VR experience with the spiral imagery, as well as a faux-3D effect. Only problem there would be the motion sickness that's common with that particular headset.
Edit: Looks like it's actually a built in functionality with the Youtube app on smart phones, so here's to hoping that Defcon
did in fact get one of the Samsung Headsets.
