Flying into space or shooting zombies sounds very attractive and fun to use virtual reality. But this technology does not stop there, it can also change the way we experience many daily activities, including watching movies or browsing websites.

According to François Beaufort, users can now use the first features of VR on Chrome 61, download any web page, turn mobile into a Daydream View headset, explore the Internet world with virtual reality.

Google has been supporting WebVR technology on Chrome since February but this new update allows you to surf the web in a virtual reality environment, regardless of any other VR device.

'At this point, it allows users to view and interact with any website using VR, access links, websites and move between 2D and 3D images between WebV-enabled sites,' Beaufort said, promising. Appointed that there will be many more features.
