VR Download<\/a> broadcast because I was returning on a train from Queens where I had just watched Alanis Hamilton win her first match in the U.S. Open Women’s Doubles at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.<\/p>\nBelow is my view from the stands in 2025 using an iPhone 16 Pro to shoot spatial video instead of the Apple Vision Pro.<\/p>\n
Again, for this video, if you’re reading this article in an Apple Vision Pro, Meta Quest, Pico, or Vive standalone headset, open the video fullscreen and you should be able to view it in 3D.<\/p>\n
On Apple Vision Pro, after opening this video in fullscreen, you’ll see a ‘View Spatial’ option at the top.<\/p>\n
After opening this video in fullscreen, tell your web browser to display it in SBS 3D mode.<\/p>\n
Since I’m sure some folks out there will be curious about comparisons to other shooting formats, here’s a video captured by me from the same spot but choosing 4K and 120 FPS options from the camera app on iPhone 16 Pro.<\/p>\n
This is a 2D video, shot at 4K 120FPS.<\/p>\n
Here’s an ultra wide angle shot captured on iPhone 16 Pro at 1080P 30 FPS, labeled as 13 mm at f2.2, of my brother wearing his Ray-Bans while watching his kid score a point in the U.S. Open.<\/p>\n
This is a 2D video, shot at 1080p 30FPS with the ultra-wide lens.<\/p>\n
Lastly, here’s a telephoto video at 1080p 60 FPS, said to be 120 mm f2.8:<\/p>\n
This is a 2D video, shot at 1080p 60FPS with the telephoto lens.<\/p>\n
Did I just use UploadVR.com as an opportunity to cheer on family, or is there value to our audience in seeing what videos of a sporting event look like when filmed from the stands? Yes. Part of the reason I’m publishing this on UploadVR.com is so I, too, can go in a headset myself and see what value 3D brings when capturing action from these vantage points.<\/p>\n
Alanis Hamilton plays her next match in the U.S. Open later today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For the first time in an UploadVR article, if you’re reading in a VR headset, you can watch…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":106668,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[64,63,105,238,239,240],"class_list":["post-106667","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-virtual-reality","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-technology","tag-virtual-reality","tag-virtualreality","tag-vr"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=106667"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106667\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/106668"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=106667"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=106667"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=106667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
