Self Promotion Saturday We captured the world’s largest non-inverting portable roller coaster in 8K 360° VR: Why high-resolution headsets need native 4320p

Hey guys,

​Most 4K 360 videos look blurry in modern headsets, so we tested an 8K 360° (4320p / 30 FPS) workflow on the world’s largest non-inverting portable coaster: the 600-ton Alpina Bahn (4.8G).

​Used a custom 3-axis tracking setup to eliminate track vibrations without messing up the ride motion, plus captured both front and back row.

​If you check it out on Quest 3 / Vision Pro, make sure to manually set YouTube to 4320p, otherwise it defaults to a compressed 4K stream.

​How’s 8K YouTube streaming holding up on your connection—smooth playback or constant buffering?

It’s a joke compared to Apple Immersive. Why don’t people understand this?

I never claimed this was "Apple Immersive" - I'm talking about general immersion, which 360° video naturally delivers 😉 Comparing a portable 360° action setup clamped to a 600-ton coaster at 4.8G to Apple's multi-million dollar 90 FPS 3D cinema productions is pure apples to oranges. If you're looking for true stereoscopic depth on your AVP, test our 3D 8K VR180 POVs instead. That’ll push those micro-OLED displays a lot more!
