Basics

  • This format captures a "sphere" of panoramas, and thus:
    • One can use a VR display to view it as if they are/were there
      • This is especially of use in training or event coverage
    • It also can be used for gathering of conventional format perspectives in post production (granted results vary a lot depending on camera/stitching etc (ie it isn't the same quality as a dedicated camera if cropped etc) )
  • Typically accomplished via two cameras on opposite sides of the camera frame, with wide angle lenses (thus getting two ~180* videos) which are then "stitched" into the final video (either automatically, or in post, depending on workflow)
  • More complex multi-camera setups also exist
  • Some but not all also capture Ambisonic Audio which allows for production of binaural audio from the view perspective in the recorded soundspace
