	The technology behind Entrim 4D headphones is called Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation or GVS. It works by activating the vestibular apparatus, which, in each ear, includes the utricle, saccule, and three semicircular canals. This apparatus is responsible for processing information about motion, equilibrium, and spatial orientation.<ref>https://www.engadget.com/2016/03/14/samsung-entrim-4d-vr-motion-headphones/</ref>		The technology behind Entrim 4D headphones is called Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation or GVS.

==Hardware==
The headset looks like a regular pair of headphones but contains electrodes that correspond with movement data input by engineers, thus generating physical responses to on-screen events.<ref>http://www.roadtovr.com/samsungs-new-headphones-trick-your-inner-ear-to-move-you-in-vr/</ref>
==Technical Specifications==
==Software==
==Apps==
Entrim 4D was showcased with a demo of a car racing around a track.<ref>https://www.engadget.com/2016/03/14/samsung-entrim-4d-vr-motion-headphones/</ref>
==Developer==
