“Make it real”:
from Virtual
to Emotional reality
Presenting the VR-on demand-kit, made by Prophets for Orange
VR today
The Virtual Reality buzz spreads all over these days. Yet, VR as we know it today is still far from a truly immersive experience. Sure, the technology and equipment evolve rapidly. But VR often remains a passive, one way experience. So …
Beyond the VR-hype
That’s why we decided to approach VR from a different angle: the participative one.
What does it mean?
- Bringing VR to a two-way interaction level
- Fully immersive and in real time
- Both visually 360° and 3D-auditive
- Allowing to be present ánd to participate to the action
- Without wires or static positions as limiting conditions
- Using only hardware components for end users
With eyes
Two 360fly 4K cameras represent the eyes of our VR-kit. Thanks to a unique code, our installation is able to stitch 2 half-sphere videos from the cameras in real time. Afterwards the full videosphere is streamed to the Gear VR 2.
With ears
Our VR-installation records sound with an omni binaural microphone with 4 pairs of ears, which provides audio in 3D. With tailored, homebrew software, we synchronized the omni binaural audio to the 360° videosphere.
With a body
No ears and eyes without a body: a self-assembled installation, that fits in a backpack. It consists of an Orange flybox, which connects to the 4G-network, an amplifier for audio, a processor and a battery.
