We can set a site to be responsive with the standard meta tag to do so: <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width”> This will adapt the content to the viewport width. We can also explicitly set a width – this is pretty uncommon, but it’s possible: <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=1024″> This will render the content at 1024. […]

At CES 2017, HTC announced the HTC Vive tracker, which is kind of an accessory to create other VR accessories. The idea is that you attach it to real-life objects to then use these in VR. For example you could attach it to a (special) baseball bat, which would enable you to bat in VR. […]
