Phone goggles

Use your phone in landscape orientation. Enable head tracking, then place it in your goggles. Fit varies with the phone and lenses.

Without motion access, you can drag to look around.

Information circles and camera icons open the historical explanations and photographs inside the goggles. Use the panel’s page controls to read, and Close to return to the panorama.

Stay seated or stand still, clear your surroundings, and stop if viewing feels uncomfortable.
