The VR180 format splits the difference between full 360° VR video and standard video. Mostly made off the idea of making VR content easier to shoot for creators, you’ll be able to set up and film your videos the way you normally would with any other camera. The video can be viewed on screens or on mobile. 3D video in VR isn’t the greatest idea, but it’s good that YouTube is making some effort to standardize and increase its availability. YouTube previously supported VR, stereoscopic 3d, and 360-degree content, but the company believes that the new VR180 format will make it easier for people to make their own VR content. And, content created in the format works seamlessly in and out of a VR environment. According to YouTube, you’ll also soon be able to edit using familiar tools like Adobe Premiere Pro.
