The 'MovieMask' headset for smartphones is designed to help create an immersive experience for users when they are traveling or away from home and looking to watch content. The 'MovieMask' headset works by enabling a smartphone of virtually any make to be placed inside; users can then start a movie or a show and slip the headset on. The 'MovieMask' blocks out exterior light and isolates the viewer with the content being streamed.
The 'MovieMask' features a soft design that is comfortable and breathable to wear for extended periods. The headset for smartphones creates a 2D experience rather than a 3D experience to make it as comfortable for viewing while on a plane or during a commute as possible. The 'MovieMask' is currently up for funding on Kickstarter where pledges start at $54.
