Here is the first interactive 4D scan on Facebook ever. By supporting this on Sketchfab, it is VR-ready out of the box, mobile ready, shareable and embeddable anywhere on the web. TimeSlice Films are the pioneers of multi-camera array. The 4D footage made possible by Sketchfab and the volumetric capture specialists at TimeSlice Films was created by using 53 GoPro Hero3+ Black Edition cameras, experimental GoPro Sync technology.

Because creating one’s own VR game is no easy task, 3D scanning and, hopefully one day soon, 4D scanning will be a method for consumer-created content.Īlban writes, “With the growth of immersive storytelling, full volumetric capture is the key successor to spherical 360 type videos which currently occupy the “VR 1.0” space. And, in order for VR to be truly popular, ordinary consumers will need to be able to create their own VR content so that it’s as personal as social media. I’d add that even stereoscopic 360 videos, as captured by Jaunt, aren’t quite as immersive as VR requires.

Sketchfab CEO Alban Denoyel points out in his blog post that we currently occupy a VR 1.0 space, occupied by spherical, 360 videos.

We call this type of content Free Viewpoint Media (FVM) – content that can be viewed from any perspective.” It fundamentally changes visual content creation from a fixed-viewpoint to a free-viewpoint experience. Volumetric capture is a crucial evolution of both the still and moving image. Although early days, it’s fantastic to see they intend to support this type of content. In turn, Sketchfab quickly set to work establishing a way to host it.Ĭallum Macmillan, Managing Director of TimeSlice Films, comments on the project, “It’s incredibly exciting that Sketchfab have offered to host an example of our prototype 4D footage.

The firm had created a 4D volumetric array using custom hardware and software, as well as experimental GoPro Sync technology, to program 53 GoPro Hero3+ Black Edition cameras to record 3D information across time. TimeSlice Films, a London-based studio with a focus on unique capture technology, reached out to Sketchfab with news that they had used novel tech from GoPro to capture 4D data. View the daily YouTube analytics of TimeSlice Films and track progress charts, view future predictions, related channels, and track realtime live sub counts. Today, the site has published a new blog that demonstrates just how ready they are for VR with dynamic 4D content that is, a moving 3D model captured in motion. And, with the introduction of VR viewing capabilities, they’ve demonstrated that they’re ready for the wave of VR headsets to hit the market, as well. Timelapse Film Media House believes in a smarter way to build, develop and trigger beautiful content for global agencies and brands.

3D model sharing site Sketchfab is already laying the foundation for a social 3D experience with users sharing 3D scans of their newborns and other personal scans with the community.
