Toronto, ON -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/30/2014 -- PincVR (pronounced 'pinch') , the smartphone case that converts into a wearable virtual reality experience for iOS and Android announces they have 23 days and $21 Thousand Dollars to go in their IndieGoGo campaign. PincVR, combined with a free companion app, is the first VR platform that fits in one's pocket, allowing the phone to be used as a virtual reality headset with integrated controllers. "We see the opportunity for VR as much broader than just gaming," stated Milan Baic, President of Cordon, who leads the PincVR product development. "Areas like everyday computing, commerce and productivity are very interesting for us."
The campaign, set up by Canadian company Cordon Development Labs, has been live for about 37 days and already successfully raised $29,190, a little over 50% of the goal of $50K. The campaign is set to end at midnight on January 22, 2015. At this time, Cordon Development Labs is seeking developers interested in developing for PincVR. Interested developers will have full email and phone support from 9am to 6pm ET, including support with their applications, for the first 90 days of the time of their registering for a PincVR SDK account.
Investors helping fund the PincVR Virtual World campaign to the next level will be eligible for perks such as thank yous, a T-shirt, a gesture controller kit, the Limited Edition PincVR for iPhone iOS 6 or 6S and Android, Metallic Black PincVR Discovery Editions, or a PincVR Software Development Kit.
The team also understands not everyone may be able to give money to help the PincVR Virtual World campaign, so they ask that those who cannot give monetarily help by spreading the word about the PincVR Virtual World project online through social media such as Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr or record a video challenge for Vine, Facebook or Instagram to invite friends to give to or share this IndieGoGo fundraiser. Include #PincVR in all posts.
