Sensations of Sound

How it was made

Lytro delivers the ultimate experience with an uncompromised sense of presence in virtual reality through six degrees of freedom.

In 6DoF experiences you can make eye contact with the performer, lean forward to look closer, shift side-to-side to see around objects, all with perfect stereoscopic visual, perspective, and parallax. It’s Lytro’s Light Field technology that enables 6DoF, so live action VR content in headset for the first time behaves as it does in the real world.

The 6K omnistereo and monoscopic editions are available for download in the NYT VR app.

Project Overview
