The support for 360-degree videos on YouTube that was reported earlier has become official. Starting today, content producers can upload videos that take advantage of 360-degree cameras to show all angles possible.
Viewers on the web or mobile devices can interact with the content in different ways. On YouTube’s site and through embedded videos on Chrome, viewers can click and drag to chance their angle. Those with Android devices, tablets included, can change viewing angles by moving the device around. Other devices and platforms will see the feature arrive at a later date.
Here are the 360-degree cameras compatible with YouTube:
- Giroptic 360cam
- IC Real Tech Allie
- Kodak SP360
- Ricoh Theta
