Google Has a Small Team Working on Android for VR

We've already Got Android in Phones, Tablets, TVs and Maybe Even Cars but, according to a New Rumor, the Next Step could be VR Headsets (Beyond Mattel's View-Master). While Smartphones Can already Provide the Brains of a VR Unit for Samsung's Gear VR or Google Cardboard, the Wall Street Journal Saysm Google has "Tens of Engineers" Working on a Version of Android that would Power Virtual Reality Apps. According to the Rumor, that's in Addition to the Magic Leap Augmented Reality Project Google has Invested in and a Separate AR Project Google is Working on itself. Based on What we've Seen of Android Development so Far -- and the Recent Flood of VR Hardware -- it's Really No Surprise but, if you See a Slew of Headset Rumors Ahead of the Next Google I/O it Might be for Something Other than just a New Edition of Glass.
