Does krpano use the WebVR API's defined by the W3C?

Hi,
I'm making a task for school about WebVR and found some libraries that uses WebVR. Here are some examples: A-frame, React VR and krpano.

I know also that krapno is the only library that uses Flash as fallback. The other two uses API's from specifications by W3C.

So my question is now: Does Krpano make use of the WebVR API's specified by W3C or is it krpano that makes some own specifications?

Thanks in advance
H.

Oh nice ~~I didn't know that.~~

So why uses krpano Flash as fallback and the other two not?

How do you mean that?

That Krpano uses WabVR. But not it's not important

Sorry, but I can't follow your thinking or understand what you mean...

But as note - Flash and WebVR or VR in general don't relate together in any way. The krpano WebVR plugin is HTML5 only.
