Thanks all, both on- and off-list, really useful.
One of our main concerns is that the system concerned should have some kind of API / CMS / programmatic input in order to cope with changes in the future (adding a new object, moving things around, etc) - but also I’m less inclined to hosted solutions than to ones we can host ourselves..
Will continue thinking!
cheers
Mike

It does include watermarked Google logos but they’re not too intrusive and a bit of photoshop should cure that. You can then create the hotspots or gaze-input actions for VR using the regular Unity tools.
