'Spatial video'? I guess this is just an Apple marketing term because they don't want to say 3D? Can you imagine how boring non-spatial video would be?

- elicash 3y agoNo, it's not the same as 3D. They are 6DOF videos, essentially, so you can change perspective.
- two_handfuls 3y agoNah. They are stereo 3D videos with depth data. You can only change perspective very little.
- elicash 3y agoI think we're saying the same thing, that it's not the same as 3D video. Totally fine to say their version of it is bad because you can only change perspective very little. But saying it's "only" 3D would I think confuse people more, since it'd be wrong.
- sigmar 3y agoI would call it "3d with parallax using sensor-derived depth data." 3d mesh models can be rotated and are still considered 3d, not 6dof or any new term.
- elicash 3y agoI like that description very much. It's a bit wordy so don't exactly fault Apple for not using it in marketing materials. But I do prefer it for more general use and might steal that!
- sigmar 3y agoassuming it is because apple did focus groups and knows that everyone associates "3D" with the 2003-2010 "3D movie" hype/gimmick.
