Whirligig Commercial Licensing
Put VR to work. The proper way.
Whirligig is the go-to VR media player for professionals. Whether you're running an arcade, a museum installation, a gallery exhibition, or a corporate training suite — you need a commercial licence for any use outside the home.
The good news? It's still Whirligig. Same player, same features, same updates. Just licensed for the real world.
Who needs a commercial licence?
If Whirligig is being used in any professional, public-facing, or institutional context, you need a commercial licence per headset. That includes:
VR arcades and location-based entertainment venues
Museums, art galleries, and heritage sites
Exhibitions, trade shows, and film festivals
Corporate presentations, product demos, and showrooms
Staff training and safety induction programmes
Universities, schools, and educational institutions
Film and video production review suites
If you're not sure whether your use case counts, just ask.
What you get
A commercial licence is the full Whirligig experience — nothing locked, nothing watered down. Every feature available to home users is available to you.
Massive format support — MKV, MP4, AVI, MTS and more via the VLC-based pipeline. If VLC plays it, Whirligig plays it.
360° and 180° video — Equirectangular, fisheye, VR180, dome projection. All the formats your content creators are working in.
Stereo 3D — Side-by-side, top/bottom, anaglyph. Proper stereoscopic playback, correctly.
Network streaming — Play directly from a NAS, Plex server, or SMB share on your local network. No SD card juggling, no re-encoding, no faff.
Dolby and DTS passthrough — Bit-perfect audio when connected to a compatible receiver.
Playlist and loop support — Queue a full programme and leave it running. Essential for unattended or kiosk-style installations.
Multi-platform — Meta Quest 2, 3 and Pro, Pico 4, Pimax Crystal, and PC VR via Steam. One player for your whole fleet, whatever the hardware mix.
All updates included — No recurring fees. Buy once, keep forever.
Whirligig Remote
One operator. Many headsets.
Whirligig Remote lets you control every headset in your setup from a single PC or Android phone — without anyone touching the headsets themselves.
Start, stop, pause, seek, and switch content across your entire fleet from one screen. Perfect for museums and galleries where a single staff member needs to manage multiple simultaneous viewers, or anywhere you need a clean, hands-off visitor experience.
Works over your existing Wi-Fi. No specialist hardware required.
