Hii Tech Enthusiasts,
Virtual reality (VR) content used to be hard to procure but that's hardly the case nowadays. VR is both growing in popularity and becoming cheaper and easier than ever to capture.The biggest problem at the moment for the end-user isn't so much the hardware, but the software.To assist with the creation of 180-degree virtual reality photos and video, Google LLC announced on Friday the launch of its VR180 Creator tool that will be available for MacOS and Linux.The VR180 Creator app can be downloaded from Google Play Store and is available for macOS (version 10.9 and above) and Linux (64-bit).
The tool is designed to work with the VR180 app video and image format which uses special 180 degree cameras to seamlessly upload VR video and photos to platforms such as Google Photos and YouTube.
Although the VR180 app allows easy creation of 180-degree content, most people don’t have easy access to VR software for editing the content created.Essentially,this tool allows the users to take various 180 degree 3D video formats and standardize them so that they can be viewed without distortion with a VR headset or on a flat screen such as a mobile phone or a computer monitor.
The market for VR180 capable cameras is currently limited but growing and it includes Lenovo’s Mirage Camera, with a price just under $300, and the Yi Horizon. Google partnered with Lenovo Group Ltd.,LG Electronics Inc. and Yi Technology Inc.to bring these cameras to market this year.
Although 180 degree video lacks the ability to capture and record video fully surrounding the camera,it produces a video format that captures a fully forward view including a lot of periphery.As a result, it allows the capture of scenes in a highly immersive format that works well with VR headset viewing because it helps better create the sensation of “being there” to a stationary viewer.
With the VR180 Creator tool, people with 180 degree capable cameras will have greater access to store,refine and edit footage and images.It’s one of the first editors designed to allow easy access to this content and it can work with commonly available video editing software such as Adobe Premiere and Final Cut Pro.
So, hope you guys got sufficient information from this thread.Just like and share if you find it as an informative stuff.
Do comment query.We will be back soon with more for our techgiants, stay tuned.
