Hello
I have a Theta V, I took a 360° movie with it, my question is; after putting the movie on my smartphone with 360° view, is there VR goggles for it to watch the 360° movie?
Thanks

You can use the RICOH THETA app to watch it in cardboard with your mobile phone.
This free plug-in may also be of interest to you.

The other headsets will work. Just download the 360 video player for the headset.

I think testing with cardboard goggles is probably the easiest, quickest path to testing images and video from THETA V in goggles.
I have tried with with Sony PSVR. The information is old, so it is probably out-of-date, but here is information on using the THETA V with Sony PSVR:

We set up and tested using the brand new RICOH THETA VR Media Connection BETA Plug-in with Sony Playstation VR.
We had a lot of fun!
The setup and overall process was incredibly smooth, like you would expect from a well-known consumer product from Sony. Overall, setting up the Playstation, the VR headset, and connecting it over Wi-Fi to the THETA took approximately 20 minutes to configure. Connecting to the RICOH THETA was only 1-2 minutes of the whole configuration.
