Abstract
In the guide Nigel explores the two main options for VR-HMD; HTC Vive and cardboard VR with a smartphone/device. Focussing on the cardboard VR option, he then offers some guidance on using this technology with autistic pupils and recommends some content for both cardboard and HTC Vive VR devices.
Nigel outlines advantages and disadvantages of both options, before focussing on the cardboard VR-HMD and offering guidance on how to set it up and use it with pupils. He also outlines apps and content to use with both the cardboard and HTC Vive options.
