General Question 3D VR-glasses in orbiter?

[Col Brubaker]

Hello folks,

is there any option to combine VR with orbiter? It would be enough if another person could have the 3D-view, while I am flying. It's seriously not practicable to fly with it and use the keyboard. But by all the advancements in the last years, there should be a way to give somebody the experience of a spaceflight in 3D?
Is there any way to connect a samsung-phone in a VR-oculus with orbiter?
I haven't found anything under these keywords in the forum.

AFAIK, there is no dedicated Orbiter VR module yet. However, you could use generic VR drivers like e.g. vorpX to get the D3D9 rendering on a Rift or Vive. It is not free, though.

Do you know if Orbiter 2016 D3D9 will work fine with vorpX or any other driver?
