Font-awesome: Icon request: icon-vr (for Google Cardboard and other VR enabled content and apps)
To mark VR (virtual reality) enabled apps and WebVR enabled web sites and Cordova Apps it would be helpfull to use an icon with the catchy Google Cardboard logo but with a more general name
https://developers.google.com/cardboard/
i.e. /site-assets/logo-cardboard-white.svg

Anything clearly a headset would work. If there's some copyright issue with using something that looks too close to a Google Cardboard we could use something more generic, though I admit that it's hard to get more generic than the cardboard icon. ;)

Don't forget that simple logos of real trademarks are sometimes public domain, like the Microsoft logo. But I like a-frame's icon more, like here: https://aframe.io/examples/showcase/helloworld/
Already in SVG format ...

For what it's worth, rotating the simply built icon 180deg works pretty well:

This would be really useful! I'm prototyping a bunch of WebVR demos using font-awesome / bootstrap for 2D UI so having an icon like this bundled in would be great :-) 馃憤

I hope that we are able to have a generic, universally identifiable icon for VR, I'm currently using the "cube" icon to represent 3D-ness. Thanks @sensibleworld :)

This was added in 5.4: https://fontawesome.com/icons/vr-cardboard?style=solid (along with an alternate version: https://fontawesome.com/icons/head-vr?style=solid)
It's currently available in Font Awesome Pro, but will be added to Free in the next release. (Meant to do so in this release, but it slipped through the cracks).

@sensibleworld would be great to add to alternate version where the headset is off or being raised up to represent exiting vr

@equinox2k We've also added a head-side icon the matches the head-vr icon: https://fontawesome.com/icons/head-side?style=solid
