Samsung’s Galaxy Gear VR headset it’s a lack of content.
While there are some pretty decent-looking custom made
games in the pipeline, they lack the clarity and definition
you’ll get on an Oculus Rift or PlayStation’s Project
Morpheus. And you may be able to view 3D photos
and movies with the headset, but these are still going
to be fairly limited by the way this content is created.
To combat this, and to create great-looking 3D visuals
for the Gear VR, Samsung has created Project Beyond.
This small disc-like gadget contains 16 cameras – plus one
on top – arranged to capture wherever it is in stereoscopic
3D. Once the videos are captured they’re stitched together
into a seamless whole, which can be explored via a Gear
headset. You could place the camera anywhere – on
stage during a U2 concert, for example – and whoever’s
wearing the headset will feel like they’re there. Which is
great, until Bono bounces his leathery crotch all over it.
Samsung hasn’t actually confirmed who the device is
aimed at, or whether it’ll even be available for purchase
by the general public. But if it plays its cards right Project
Beyond could become the Gear VR’s killer feature.
