Virtual Reality Headsets

Is anyone using VR headsets with there buyers to help them find properties? If so, how? 

I'm wanting to start utilizing the technology as I can see how it could be extremely beneficial to the client, especially ones from out of province but looking for some guidance on the getting started part of it.

I don't have any real world experience with this but it crossed my mind. I'm taking my FL real estate license test this Thurs and hanging my license with eXp. My wife is working on a graphics design degree, and one of the programs in her Adobe Suite (full plethora of amazing graphics software) can edit 360° video both normal and VR, including inserting characters and other items into the video in proper spacial position. I imagine shooting a 360° video walkthrough and then handing it off to her to edit and add descriptions to certain items (ex: "Fireplace includes gas insert installed in 2014" in characters that appear to be resting on the mantle). She may even be able to virtually stage rooms on a VR walkthrough. I'd love to get a 360° camera and VR headset and throw a VR walkthrough in on my first listing as a free perk just to try it out and gauge response.
