Canon EOS Virtual Reality System Updates
EOS VR System Information on the Canon Camera News 2023 website:
What is Virtual Reality?
Virtual Reality is the creation of an environment that fills the viewers field of view and
presented in such a way as to immerse the user within that environment and make
them ‘believe’ they are somewhere else.
Environments can be filmed real life scenes, using specialist camera systems, or can
be computer generated (or can even be a mixture of the two).
To experience virtual reality in its truest form, the user must wear a Head Mounted
Display (HMD) / VR headset that projects a (3D) stereoscopic image onto the users
eyes (using two images, one for each eye, showing the same scene but from slightly
different angles), providing depth perception and filling their field of view, while
ideally also incorporating spatial audio.
Canon’s EOS VR SYSTEM (which includes the Canon RF 5.2MM F2.8L DUAL FISHEYE lens) aims to provide a better balance of price and performance while making the process of 180° VR content creation a lot simpler and more efficient, enabling greater opportunity to create more content and enabling more people to enter the VR content creation market.
