(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Starbreeze looking to support the filmmaking community desiring to produce
immersive 360° content with its 210-degree VR headset
Starbreeze AB, an independent creator, publisher and distributor of high quality
entertainment products, yesterday supported the Nokia OZO launch event MAKING
VIRTUAL REALITY taking place L.A. LIVE, Los Angeles, November 30th. The event
itself hosted hundreds industry professionals to demonstrate the Nokia OZO
virtual reality (VR) camera. The STARVR VR headset, amongst others, gave the
event attendees the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in a number of OZO
filmed experiences, fully taking advantage of the headset 210-degree field of
view.
Starbreeze is looking to work closely with the Hollywood filmmaking community
supporting content creators in providing a high-resolution headset solution that
will provide a 5k high resolution, 210-degree point of view for un-paralleled VR
experiences. The headset will provide the high-end tool re-required to properly
capture, edit and present the future feature films and documentaries.
" We want VR filmmakers to experience their films at their best, with an
immersive large field of view that fill the human vision and allow the user to
experience the expressions of human emotions. This is a tool for storyteller
and, artists in pursuit of perfection, working on meaningful emotional stories
and with the desire to touch their audience." said Emmanuel Marquez CTO of
Starbreeze. He continued: "What VR needs are stories where you lose yourself,
stories that give you a heightened awareness and the immersion into the virtual
reality. That's the reason why we want to support VR film creation and we
definitely see the Nokia OZO being an important part of that future."
Nokia's OZO is the first commercially available virtual reality (VR) camera
designed and build for professional content creators and the first in a planned
portfolio of digital media solutions from Nokia Technologies, the company's
advanced technology and licensing business.
OZO captures stereoscopic 3D video through eight (8) synchronized global shutter
sensors and spatial audio through eight (8) integrated microphones. Software
built for OZO enables real-time 3D viewing, with an innovative playback solution
that removes the need to pre-assemble a panoramic image - a time-consuming
process with solutions currently in the marketplace.
