Nick Cannon Tries the Virtual Reality Beginner’s Guide and Smartphone VR Viewer

The new Virtual Reality Beginner’s Guide and Smartphone VR Viewer is a hot holiday gift item and Nick Cannon already tried it.

Here is a neat and affordable Holiday gift for geeks. The Virtual Reality Beginner’s Guide and Smartphone VR Viewer is a book bundled with a cardboard VR headset based on the design Google introduced earlier this year.

A a CES 2015 pre-party, Nick Cannon already tested this Smartphone VR Viewer. Why is Nick Cannon hanging out with geeks at a CES pre-party? After the recent divorce from Mariah Carey he has possibly too much time on his hand. The real reason though is that entrepreneur, actor and record producer Nick Cannon will serve as the Entertainment Matters Ambassador for the CES 2015.

The Entertainment Matters Ambassador illuminates CES’ focus on collaboration between the entertainment and technology industries. Cannon will advocate for uniting entertainment thought leaders, who are at the forefront of digital content creation, with innovative executives and entrepreneurs who are developing the next generation of breakthrough technology products and services.   

“As a successful entrepreneur, producer, actor and television host, Nick Cannon is the perfect ambassador for the 2015 CES Entertainment Matters program,” said Karen Chupka, senior vice president, events and conferences, CEA. “Nick’s multifaceted career is a vivid testimony to the importance of – and the opportunities presented by – merging content and technology to create the next-generation of entertainment.  And that is what the CES Entertainment Matters program is all about.”
