When you see a picture or watch a video, you see only what can fit into a flat, two-dimensional shot. You can’t experience what all of those vibrant people in all of those unique places have to offer. Even your selfies are limited to you and whoever else you can squeeze into the frame. Dmitry Kozko, ALLie Camera’s President, and self-proclaimed geek-at-heart wanted to challenge our perspective and let us encounter life in the dimension of Virtual Reality.
So we’ve been getting a glimpse of a diverse variety of immersive and VR video this year, making 360 video technology quite a formidable tool across the board. From travel sector to videography and everything in between, it seems every industry has been trying to get a piece of the action. The videos themselves are quite a sight. With them, the video experience is simply more than click-and-play.
Tech industry giants predicted that 360 video technology would be the next big thing. And they were dead right on the spot. With several companies already churning out top-notch 360 cameras - and newer, fresher, and more capable ones on the way, we are spoilt for choice.
360 videos are all the rage right now across the globe. These are VR-like video formats that allow you to view up, down, behind, right and left. Isn't that incredible? But, did you know that shooting or producing 360 videos isn't a walk in the park?
Are you looking to garner a good 360 video camera for yourself or your business? If yes, then you are dead right on the spot. The good news is that there are several 360 video cameras available in the market nowadays. They come in a variety of styles, performance, functionality, and, of course, price tags.
We've already plunged halfway into 2016; and, as tech pundits put it: this is the year of 360 video and VR technologies. Last year alone, we saw a plethora of startups make a foray into this budding niche. But then, these two technologies aren't entirely new. We've seen earlier tech companies experiment with 360 video technology, boasting mixed results.
If you have not experienced 360° video, then you are in for a mind-blowing surprise. When tech honchos predicted that 360 video technology is the next big thing across the board, many skeptics kept their tongues wagging. Videos that can allow us to capture our surroundings in full 360x360 view? That's right - 360 video technology brings you virtual reality like never before. With it, there is simply more to video than just click and play.
