Samsung Gear VR software manual leaks

We already got our first taste of the upcoming Virtual Reality device by Samsung, and now with the new software manual leak courtesy of SamMobile we got a little more information. Although not much, but it does tell a little bit about features.

So, while the setup process doesn't reveal a lot when you don't possess the actual device, it revealed some features which are not too important but do play a role in user experience;

First of all, since the wearable itself isn't see-through, we now have a confirmation that the device's camera will be used to provide a visual of your surroundings, done when you long-click the 'back' button. Also, the device will make a sound when you dock and un-dock it.

There are VR Panorama and VR Cinema apps that were revealed, but weren't much of a use since the actual device wasn't in possession. In addition you can set screen timeout time, and some more advanced-settings. You can also launch applications using S Voice, simply by saying "Hi Galaxy" and then issuing a command.

Samsung Gear VR will make its appearance at IFA 2014, only a month away, so not too long a wait before we all get our eyes and hands on it. For more information, be sure to visit our source, SamMobile.
