Since last year, the description, products and prospects of VR virtual reality have been widely reported. For example, we are about to enter a new era, people can immerse themselves in the virtual world and enjoy a unique life experience. Today, one year later, virtual reality is still an important future topic, but the progress of development has begun to slow down. Instead, VR-related panoramic photography is getting more and more popular. Why?
The concept of virtual reality must be understood by everyone. Through VR glasses and other devices, a computer can be used to generate a simulation environment and interact with elements in the virtual environment. Systematic simulation of interactive 3D dynamic vision and physical behavior immerses users in environments outside of reality. This technology was first used in the game field and is still a major development direction of the game. However, from last year to the present, in addition to games, the development of other fields is not fast, which is indeed worth pondering.

On the other hand, the panoramic photography industry is starting to get hot. Panorama shooting is not a collage technique in the past, but a photo taken in reality can be combined. The result is a 720-degree photo that can be swiped. Of course, you can also use VR glasses to achieve virtual reality, such as being in the shooting scene. This technology has existed for almost 10 years. At that time, the limitation of synthetic technology was very difficult to achieve. It has not been fired until the VR technology entered the public eye in recent years, and the panoramic shooting was born again. However, in recent years, it has been found that the panoramic shooting with the prosperous is more concerned than the VR technology itself. There are more and more fields involved.
Maps, navigation, and commercial displays all require a new form of panorama
Speaking of the reasons is actually simple, let me talk about why the panoramic shooting is hot. Panoramic photography has existed for so many years, not the lack of application requirements, but the early technology is too backward, so that the cost of achieving panoramic shooting is high, including the cost of shooting and the cost of time. Even the best way to show up is to compromise in the face of cost. In addition to a small number of institutions showing demand, almost no penetration into other popular areas, consumers are also looking at the adventure, does not care about the experience upgrade it brings. Of course, VR technology was still a cutting-edge technology at the time, and it did not stimulate the panoramic shooting itself. VR technology and panoramic photography were almost two areas that were separated.
Multi-camera bracket integrated shooting is currently the most efficient panoramic shooting practice
Today's panoramic shooting applications are used in many areas: map navigation, shop display, live coverage, and even panoramic aerial photography. The demand for panoramic images is increasing, which is a very good and intuitive way to display, so it is not surprising that it is popularized by VR technology. The important reason for the popularity is that the synthetic technology of panoramic shooting has made significant progress. This is the result of the progress of the IT industry, software algorithms are more efficient, computer hardware is faster, and the cost of synthesizing panoramic photos is greatly reduced.
Personal panoramic recording camera is also getting hot
On the other hand, the requirements for panoramic shooting are not particularly high, and one camera can also be completed. To shoot efficiently, you can choose multiple cameras with a panoramic shooting bracket, or directly use a panoramic camera to shoot, the rise of panoramic shooting. It also allows camera manufacturers to find a new development path, the entry of panoramic cameras is underway, and the development direction of panoramic photography is a higher pixel output and a more efficient and accurate synthesis. These are also the development needs of future panoramic shooting.
VR virtual reality, especially AR, is widely used in the industrial field, but it is difficult to implement
Let me talk about why VR virtual reality is now a bit of a blow? The most important point is that the demand for technology is not clear. In addition to the game field, other aspects of VR needs have not been tapped. Or if other areas are to be upgraded to VR technology to achieve, it is a subversive thing. For many traditional industries, it is a revolution that drives the whole body. It won't be easy. For example, in the field of product design, if you change to VR design, most designers have to retrain and then go to work. This kind of disruptive change can't be done overnight, and there needs to be a process.
In addition to the fact that demand points have not been tapped, the implementation cost of VR technology is too high to be commercialized. The hardware requirements for implementing VR technology are not high. With a high-performance computer, most VR landscapes can be realized with VR glasses. But software development is a very big project, and it is low-profile. The reason why VR games are still hot is because the game market is highly concerned, and gamers are willing to pay for new forms of game experience. Developers are naturally willing to invest in new VR games. In contrast to other fields, new forms of application may not be able to extract more profits, and naturally lack the motivation for companies to develop VR technology.
Summary: VR virtual reality is undoubtedly a major trend in the future, but this change requires a revolutionary change to stimulate. From traditional to three-dimensional interaction, there needs to be a stimulus. When can this stimulus be achieved? To put it bluntly, I hope that another industrial revolution will make VR technology not only stay in the game field.
