Leveraging the <a href="#sustained_performance_api">Sustained Performance API</a>

and newly introduced {@code VrListenerService} class, Android N provides support for

VR apps developed using the <a href="https://developers.google.com/cardboard/overview">Cardboard

SDK</a>. For more information about the {@code VrListenerService} class, see the relevant section

of the downloadable <a href="{@docRoot}preview/setup-sdk.html#docs-dl">API Reference</a>.

Android N adds platform support and optimizations for a new VR Mode to let developers

build high-quality mobile VR experiences for users. There are a number of performance

enhancements, including access to an exclusive CPU core for VR apps.

Within your apps, you can take advantage of intelligent head-tracking,

and stereo notifications that work for VR. Most importantly, Android N provides for

very low latency graphics. For complete information about building VR apps for Android N,

see the <a href="https://developers.google.com/vr/android/">Google VR SDK for Android</a>.

  Android N contains system behavior changes aimed at improving the battery

  life of devices, RAM usage, and app performance. These changes can impact the

  availability of system resources and system notifications to your app. You
