I'm looking at the Google Cardboard kit, an inexpensive VR setup that uses Android Devices to play 3d VR games. I see that they have an Android demo project, but is there any iOS or Objective-C port of the Cardboard project?
If not, are there any other VR projects for iOS that can be modified to work with the cardboard kit?
June 2015 update
Google has added iOS support to their official Unity SDK. Even though the Unity plugin bundles a pre-compiled iOS Cardboard binary, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to use it in a standalone fashion.
I just completed an iOS CardboardSDK port for the company I'm working for.
It (mostly) has feature parity with Android's CardboardSDK v0.5.1. Works on iOS 7+. Tested on iPhone 6 and iPhone 5.
You can check it out here: CardboardSDK-iOS.
According to this article:
Virtually any iOS app that was designed to work with the Durovis Dive will work with Google Cardboard. There are only about five apps worth checking out at this point, but as the demand rises I’m sure other developers will jump on board and craft better VR experience apps. The best way to find compatible apps at the moment is by searching for “Durovis” or “Durovis Dive” on the App Store. Either of those terms will pull up a variety of apps that were designed to work with VR headsets.
Here's the Durovis SDK: http://www.durovis.com/sdk.html
