VR videos, VR videogames, VR [insert other here].

Being able to watch a 360 degree video in the browser. Optionally hit a button and put on a headset and use head tracking to look instead of click+drag.

Playing VR games using something like daydream, oculus, etc... All within the browser.

The idea being it keeps the same cross-platform, cross-device, cross-"viewer" (VR headset, phone screen, computer screen, KB+mouse, touchscreen, etc...) that the web is built on.

You probably won't be making the next AAA title in the browser just yet, but it's more than capable of games, videos, and other VR "experiences".
