360-degree video clip of static panoramic screenshots of the AVA360VR interface that enables an analyst to inhabit video data

This equirectangular 360° video clip comprises a sequence of static panoramic screenshots of the AVA360VR interface that enables an analyst to inhabit the video recorded in a camerawork training session. The screenshots are high-resolution image captures of the complete field of view triggered live by the user inside the head-mounted display from whatever position they desire (and stored to disk). The screenshot image function and the live screen capture video function allow others not in virtual reality to view the results of the use of the AVA360VR tool at a later date.

AVA360VR (Annotate, Visualise, Analyse 360° video in VR) is a VR software tool developed by the BigSoftVideo team at Aalborg University. The aim is to support ‘inhabiting’ 360-degree video data – that is, to explore complex spatial video and audio recordings of a scene in which social interaction took place through a tangible interface in virtual reality.

To play the video and spatial sound correctly, use a digital video player that can play equirectangular videos with the YouTube ambiX First Order Ambisonic audio format, eg. VLC or PotPlayer. Please wear headphones.

At the end of the clip is a short demonstration of ambisonic spatial audio.
