This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.
The getVRDisplays() method of the Navigator interface returns a promise that resolves to an array of VRDisplay objects representing any available VR devices connected to the computer.
Syntax
navigator.getVRDisplays().then(function(displays) {
// Do something with the available VR displays
});
Parameters
None.
Return value
A promise that resolves to an array of VRDisplay objects.
Examples
Apps built using the WebVR API should iterate over the returned list and correlate displays that share VRDisplay.displayIds, to access full device capabilities.
TBD.
