FOV2GO is a smartphone VR viewer project from Mark Bolas at the MxR Lab.[1] It is made out of cardboard or foam.

A version of it supported a single iPhone 4.[2]

Palmer Luckey did mechanical design and optical design on it.[3]

It was shown off at IEEE Virtual Reality 2012.[4]

The Rift DK1 used the FOV2GO-D lens design and Mark Bolas' remote drive display. The first prototypes of the Samsung Gear VR used the FOV2GO-D optics. Google employed a similar folded-cardboard design as the FOV2GO-A which led to more than 1 million VR viewers.[5]
