If you guys haven't seen this before, it's worth a few minutes of your time! Watch the video on YouTube, turn up the resolution, and move your phone (android works best) around to change the direction of view. In this video, you are able to see what it would look like to be in the driver seat of a Formula car.

I can't wait until this gets more popular.

I read that it works on a computer (Chrome) but I haven't tried it yet.

That was pretty sweet.

Now we need 360° porn so we can start moving the camera away from the balls.

Haha sounds like you have a start to a good business.


Watch the end of the video where he does the donuts. First time I watched it, I was bummed I couldnt see the tire smoke. Second time I remembered it was a 360 video and i just spun around in my chair and watched the magic happen.

That was very cool. On the computer it looks strange but on the phone its like you are actually driving. I can't wait to see more videos use this system...

They have it.

Has anyone tried it with Google cardboard yet? I have a google cardboard sitting next to me but it's too small for my phone.

Just in case you guys did not know, if you are on a PC, you can drag with your mouse on the YouTube screen and it will let you do the 360* viewing.
