New 180 and 360-degree Camera Systems will Capture First-Person Virtual Reality ExperiencesOne of the latest innovations in camera and film technology may lead to incredibly realistic virtual reality experiences for consumers. Earlier this month the team working at the Astronauts Guild, led by producer and director Roham Rahmanian announced that they have begun test trials on 180 and 360-degree camera systems to capture first-person virtual reality experiences.

Unlike the CGI environments currently utilized in the gaming and virtual reality world, this new camera technology would create a much more realistic environment for the individual to experience.

“The virtual-reality revolution is upon us, and The Astronauts Guild wants to be on the forefront of creating quality, live-action content for entertainment, and possibly more importantly, for medical applications. When 3D became the rave a few years ago, it took off with a Wild West, every man for himself explosion. No standardization and no quality control. This created a lot of content that was just plain bad, Because of this trend, many consumers had bad experiences” said Rahmanian.

The Astronauts Guild has been described as a collective of dreamers, doers, artists and technicians who are equal parts Production Company, creative collective and technical development firm.

“I hope, the early content creators for Oculus Rift and Sony Morpheus, including The Astronauts Guild, can come to a consensus early on, about quality control and mathematically calculated standards for content, it is of the utmost importance that the consumer feels comfortable trying out virtual reality, and is excited to make it a part of their daily entertainment experience,” added Rahmanian.

Rahmanian and his team are not shy about taking on incredibly challenging projects, many of which require an advanced knowledge of production and cutting edge technology.
