Facebook Entices VR Content Creators With Open Source Surround Cam
Facebook on Tuesday unveiled a high-quality 360-degree 3D camera
suitable for creating virtual reality content. The Facebook Surround 360
system, which made its debut at the F8 developers conference, includes a
production-ready camera.
Which costs about $30,000 to build and looks like a flying saucer
from a science fiction movie — and software for controlling the camera
and for stitching and rendering what the camera captures. “We wanted to
create a professional-grade end-to-end system that would capture, edit
and render high-quality 3D-360 video,” said Facebook’s Brian Cabral.
