VR 360 streaming

Broadcast VR 360 stream from specialized webcams with playback in a VR player or helmet

VR 360 is a video stream format with viewing angles of 360° x 180°. When watching from a PC, the viewer can change the angle using the mouse, and when watching such a video from a smartphone, the viewing angle is controlled by moving the device in space.

VR stream can be played in virtual and mixed reality devices if one of the supported browsers is running on this device. The playback quality of the stream in the VR device directly depends on the quality of the published stream.
