YouTube Adds 360-Degree Feature For Videos

[Guest]

Last month, YouTube experimented with Choose Your View, which allows the user to have multiple camera angles of the same video. Now the popular video website is trying out another feature to keep viewers interested: 360-degree videos.

I know of a TV service provider that recently just tested something like this. I was one of the research study participants! Its very interesting I will say. Not sure if I like it or hate it though. Looks amazing on the Samsung VR headset I will tell you though.

The absolutely coolest part of this is that if you have an android device all it takes is updating your youtube app and you can experience it first hand right away. No money, no waiting for a VR headset to arrive, no plugging in cables and putting things on your head. Just update and experience something cool.

I wish they'd focus on improving the quality of their videos first, any motion in youtube is horrible with little blocks.

@loki944, I think that may be your system, or internet provider. I certainly don't see any artifacts on youtube.

This stuff is the future. Very cool

If it isn't stereoscopic, then it's not VR, it's just a a spherical screen. Neat but, not revolutionary. "3D60" boys and girls, copyright 2015 all rights reserved.

I think 360° video will become especially popular with live sports.
You can watch a few *stunning scenes* like speed flying or a live rock concert over here:
