Google to live stream I/O 2016 in 360-degree

Aside from the usual live stream and Extended events in your community, there’s a brand new way to watch Google I/O 2016 if you’re not attending the event in person.

The developer event, this year, will be live streamed in 360-degree mode – alright, just the opening keynote – providing an immersive virtual reality experience.

You can tune in to YouTube through your virtual reality headset, like Oculus, Gear VR or Google Cardboard, on Wednesday, May 18 at 10am PT to watch the opening keynote of I/O 2016.
