hi... this would be very very useful and easy and practical and cheap...
everybody has some form of freehands headset with a "call answer" button...
would be amazing if that button could be used as "vr action" button to interact with the virtual world (press buttons, panels, switches, levers, etc), and could be the only vr app that make available this button
... because in the meantime the only other options i found are:
an htc vive, occulus quest, starvr one or another vr headset with its own controls (and a 1000+ $usd pc)
a bluetooth vr controller (rare, expensive and maybe not fully compatible)
a google cardboard with builtin button (the one that touches the screen inside or the other that interferes accelerometer)
buy a cheap plastic vr visor for smartpone and modify imitating the cardboard button (i actually tried this and was a disaster)
get an usb-otg adapter and attach an usb mouse (left click are recognized as "action"), but not so friendly (can see mouse cursor, sometimes click another screen elements and phone go crazy, etc...), and you get more hanging cables
get a "button remap" app and remap "answer call headset button" to "vr action", but complicated, a bit techie, and doesn't work always (maybe depending the phone model, the os version, if the phone is rooted, etc)
use the phone camera+motion track with paperstick or some other DIY controller
maybe use another phone+app as a controller (like daydream controller emulator?, see below)
maybe some other unknown, esoteric, complex or expensive way to do it
