Matterport says that at launch, its VR app will come with gallery of "150 real world places" and will be supported by Google Cardboard and Samsung's Gear VR. The remaining 250,000 spaces can be accessed via its 3D Showcase app, with more being converted to VR over time as publishers enable the option on their existing tours.

In a bid to further expand its digital catalog, the company is letting companies add their own VR experiences for free for the rest of the year, letting you take tours of places that haven't yet or won't make it into Google's Street View collection.
