This site has been archived and remains strictly as a historical reference for developers who actively maintain apps built using the legacy Google VR SDK, which was last updated in 2019 and is no longer receiving updates.
  • All developers actively developing experiences for Google Cardboard should use the new open source Cardboard SDKs for iOS, Android NDK, and Unity XR Plugin. These new SDKs offer streamlined APIs, improved device compatibility, and built-in viewer profile QR code scanning.
  • The Daydream View VR headset is no longer available for purchase as of October 15, 2019. Existing apps on supported devices are unaffected for users who previously installed those applications. It is no longer possible to opt-in to Daydream distribution via Google Play.

GVRHeadRotation Struct Reference

Overview

Contains yaw and pitch angles corresponding to where the user is looking.

yaw is the rotation along the vertical (y) axis. Values are in the [-180, 180] range with:

  • 0 == looking straight at the initial image orientation
  • 90 == looking 90 degrees to the right
  • -90 == looking 90 degrees to the left
  • 180 == -180 == looking in the direction opposite to the initial one

pitch is the rotation along the right (x) axis previously rotated by yaw. Values are in the [-90, 90] range with:

  • 0 == looking straight, level with the ground
  • 90 == looking up
  • -90 == looking down

When pitch approaches 90 or -90, yaw values are reset to zero as computing the yaw values becomes numerically unstable.
