Summary:
As any tech headline will tell you, 2016 is the Year of Virtual Reality. Every billion-dollar corporation and its brother are rushing into the VR-headset market (Sony, Samsung, Google, Microsoft, HTC). Ever since 2014, when Facebook bought Oculus, a fledgling VR company, for $2 billion, journalists and investors have become part of the hype machine. With this technology, image-filled goggles immerse you in a world. When you turn your head in any direction, your "camera angle" changes - an obvious tool for games. Why just shoot aliens in front of you when you can fire behind you, too? But according to the techs advocates, the next step is VR movies. Fox, Disney and Lionsgate have already committed huge sums to producing 360-degree movies.
"In the Movies" is from the May 2016 issue of Scientific American.
