Cardboard Meetup

GDG Philippines is organizing a Cardboard Meetup on August 27, 2014 at Jump Experience Center, 4th Floor, Cyberzone, SM Megamall (Bldg. B), Dona Julia Vargas Ave, Ortigas Center.

We'll be bringing some of our I/O Cardboards for everyone to try. If you have your own Cardboards, you can bring it too! And if you have created or are currently developing an app for Cardboard, you can share it to everyone.

What is Cardboard? Cardboard is a DIY virtual reality viewer. You can make your own Cardboard using the instructions at http://g.co/cardboard. The list of supported Android devices can be found in the FAQ at http://goo.gl/2MzqQa.

If you have a supported Android device, download the Cardboard app from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.samples.apps.cardboarddemo

Post-Google I/O 2014 Meetup

After returning from Google I/O and our short travel to the US, we organized a Post-Google I/O meetup on July 7. The resource speakers were Wayne Manuel and me. It was held at the Coins.ph office in Centerpoint Building, Ortigas Center, Pasig City.

The event was attended by more than 22 participants; some of them have joined the Google I/O 2014 Extended Manila.

It was a very informal meetup. We talked about the updates and announcements from I/O. We also demonstrated the Android Wear smart watches (LG G Watch and Samsung Gear Live). The participants also played with the Cardboard.
