What is Facebook Surround 360 Virtual Reality Camera?<\/h2>\n

Facebook Surround 360 Camera has been invented in order to enhance the ability of capturing, editing, and rendering high-quality 3D-360 videos<\/strong><\/em> by creating a system that would enable more VR content producers, artists, developers and even amateurs to start producing high quality 3D-360 video.<\/p>\n

Facebook Surround 360 is a professional-grade end-to-end system uses a 17-camera<\/strong> array and accompanying web-based software to capture images in 360 degrees<\/strong> and render them automatically.<\/p>\n

The rig includes 14 wide-angle cameras<\/strong> bolted onto the flying saucer, plus one fish-eye camera on top and two more on the bottom. This allows the device to capture the surroundings without showing the pole holding up the camera.<\/p>\n

What Makes Facebook Surround 360 Camera The Best of its Kind?<\/h2>\n

Thanks to the integrated hardware and software designed by the Facebook company to work in harmony.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • The device can work for “many hours” without overheating.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Exports video in resolution up to 8K.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Output content can be viewed on many platforms such as Gear VR, Oculus, and inside the Facebook app.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Extremely high quality that immediately makes you believe in 360 film.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • The cameras are globally synchronized. All the frames capture the scene at the same time within less than 1 ms of one another.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Each camera has a global shutter. All the pixels see the scene at the same time.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Using optical flow technology to analyze the captured images and create a depth map of objects.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Using\u00a0an 8-way level-5 RAID SSD disk system to keep up with the isochronous camera capture rates. This, in coordination with the sturdy cameras, allows for minutes to hours of continuous capture.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Control the camera remotely with a simple web interface, making it possible to control the camera from any device that supports an HTML browser.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
