VR content do not know what to see? Come and try these apps

Double 11 has just ended and a big wave of express delivery is on the way. As in previous years, there are still a large number of users who have carried out "treasure-stabbing campaigns", and the turnover of new records reached RMB 120.7 billion. However, a new partner in the field of digital products this year seems to have a good performance - VR.

With the development of the VR industry, more and more users have begun to pay attention to, experience and even purchase VR devices. The sales volume from the "local-class" HTC Vive to the "variety of" mobile phone VR boxes is also accumulating, and the market scale is also increasing. Expanding. However, the first difficulty faced by many users after purchasing a VR device is how to use the VR head display. What is the use of the VR head display? If you purchase a PC VR headset, most “fever-level” users will choose to download (purchase) games for experience on platforms such as Steam VR (in addition to some users and business units buying devices for development, content creation, etc. ). In contrast, the more "lightweight" mobile phone VR box will become a "decoration" for the user after eating fresh food because of "deficient content."

Really feel the VR brought about the realistic, immersive experience, then let the VR head to eat gray is about equal to "stormy heavenly things." Just as a "new product category", users will indeed face the embarrassing situation of having no content to see and no games to play after they get their own VR headset. Although many heads-up have their own apps and app stores, the content is still limited. Therefore Xiaobian recommends five good APPs for everyone to let you see a more exciting virtual reality world.

Must not be missed - Stories

Although Google Spotlight Stories is the few applications recommended by Xiao Bian today, with the least content (the most concise page), but it is the most representative boutique! If you want to know what is the real VR content, then Stories is definitely a Can not miss the application.

Google Spotlight Stories

Each story in Stories tells a story about a 360° video, where the user can watch it with the VR headset, or swipe the screen on the phone and rotate the phone to watch it. At present, there are 8 video contents in the redesigned application, new content is also on the line (in addition to the old content may also be updated), the screen is beautiful, really is suitable for all ages.

In these contents, the video titled "HELP" must not be missed. This may be the first real-life VR movie to be taken by the film. Directed by Justin Lin, director of Speed ​​and Passion, starring Sung Kang. The final market for the entire film is also only a few minutes, but this only a few minutes has cost millions of dollars.

HELP

Compared with many of the panoramic videos we currently see, "HELP" not only moves the camera frequently (in accordance with the previously planned trajectory, and slides on the ropeway), but also collects real scenes and objects and uses CG effects to create a real city. Realistic scenes, cruel monsters, panicked crowds, and stunning visual effects are all enough to convince you that you are in Los Angeles where monsters are attacking!

In addition, although Stories contains "video" content, it also includes some interactions. After the user moves to the corresponding area by turning the head (mobile phone), the story will develop accordingly, increasing the interest.
