I guess that announcement makes sense for professional content producers, but this is mostly a clickbait product. One that we won't probably see in real life, although it's clear that VR has pushed interest for 360 videos.
Good as an option, probably, but most of the time flat video is ideal. We'll see if that changes with these products or the ones made for big audiences (Samsung Gear 360, and LG Cam 360). I wouldn't bet my life on it. Adventure cameras have already reached their limits, it seems, for example, and I see a similar scenario on this case.
- tekromancr 11y agoI am not so sure. I once played around with projecting an imax 3d space movie on the inside of a virtual sphere. It was a pretty awesome accident, because (so long as I didn't turn around and look at the seam) I had the illusion of asteroids and stuff actually floating in my space. I think there is a lot of potential for 360-3D video. That said, I am not sure that content producers should focus too much on having things happening all around you. It's not great to constantly have to be looking all around, but it is useful to create the illusion of presence.
