    Spherical photos and video are not VR! They are one form of content you can experience in a HMD, but they basically suck.

        @BJ_Schwartz I'm only working on making it possible for your consumers to view your content once you invent volumetric cinematography. ;)

        @vk2zay you do know it's more than possible to add volumetric effects to a cinematic experience, right?

        @BJ_Schwartz sure. I mean only that the basic art of cinematography when your audience can move and look anywhere is in its infancy.

        people like myself that prefer content with geometry information are not the only users. Depthless data is fine for skyboxes.

        @vk2zay what of static generate CG expieiences with no interaction? Subjective to dictate what VR is or isn’t at this stage.

        @Filmbot some of them can be compelling, especially realtime rendered ones you can translate in without breaking your brain.

        @vk2zay I agree its wild west in terms of content both CG & live action. Compelling content w/ story done right is what will help VR succed

        @ajohnclark sure, I own a Theta I use a lot too. Still has no depth information and breaks your brain as soon as you translate or roll.
