Hey @mwestphal  
Saving the panoramic view as animation, will help in viewing it in VR box ?

@mwestphal

I have opened my file in panoramic view.I kept the camera at the center of the box. Now I have created an animation of this (Orbit).  
I want to view this animation in VR headset.  
So what should I do in order me to view this animation in VR headset.

- Save your animation as images.
- Create a video from the images.
- Open in your VR headset with a dedicated 3D player.
