LOS ANGELES — BaDoink Studios has partnered with VR player HereSphere to optimize its streaming capabilities and to deliver a fully customizable interface and more personalized user experience.
HereSphere’s built-in browser allows users to log in to their favorite BaDoink website and instantly enjoy an immersive theater experience in which they can browse and stream BaDoink's premium VR catalog.
BaDoink’s Director of VR Content Lucas Elliot said, “Downloading our 7K VR scenes is a great way to enjoy our content, but HereSphere offers a quicker, more direct route to a VR experience, without filling up hard drive space with heavy files. We’re excited to be working with HereSphere as they continue to provide cutting-edge, custom-tailored streaming solutions.”
HereSphere is an experimental application that “pushes the boundaries of VR player immersion,” a rep enthused.
“Their new autofocus feature allows users to selectively focus on scene subjects using eye-tracking technology to create a more cinematic atmosphere within their headset,” the rep explained. “While stereoscopic VR videos are perceived differently by each individual, HereSphere’s technology allows users to find the right settings for them through distance-based head tracking and IPD correction.”
Users will also have access to a time-stamped file tagging system, making it easy to skip to their favorite scene segments. Color adjustments, key-framed settings and lens distortion settings are also available to further personalize the user’s experience.
