VRguide

360-degree video player for the classroom

In accordance with EASA guidelines

VRguide is a 360-degree video platform designed in accordance with EASA guidelines on distance learning, Issue 5, 18.08.2020. 

The platform allows for easy sharing and synchronizing of 360 degree videos. In VRguide pilots can either watch videos alone or with others in a classroom like experience. The videos can be paused and discussed while instructors can point out details and much more without sitting in the same physical location.

Required equipment for recording 360 degree video

Recording 360 degree videos is just as easy as recording regular 2D videos. At VRpilot, we use GoPro Max for the video and a Zoom H6 audio recorder for ambient and headset sound.

360 degree videos can be recorded with a GoPro Max for video and a Zoom H6 for audio.
