Facebook is updating more amazing features by adding Hardware
and Software to provide 360 degree live video in a 4k resolution. The approved
hardware and software and products work well with live 360 video streaming
offering.
You can interact with your friends and followers through
direct access to Facebook’s emojis and comments by using camera’s applications
or web experience.
There are 11 Camera applications and seven software suites
which are approved by Facebook. That seven soft-wares are: Groovy Gecko,
Teradek, LiveScale, Assimilate SCRATCH VR, Voysys, Wowza and Z CAM WoderLive.
CEO of Insta360 JK Liu said: “The way we communicate is
getting more and more visual, and live 360 video is the richest medium of all.
We are excited to bring Facebook users a way to go live in 360 that fits in
seamlessly with the way they already use their phones.”
Live 360 steam will not b enough to provide a good service
and feature. 4k resolution is the need of the generation. That is why, Facebook
has announced that live 36o stream will support 4k resolution. It will be
available in Virtual Reality.
Facebook Product Manager Chetan Gupta and Caitlin Ramrakha
wrote: “Live 360 broadcasts will be available to watch in VR-- both while thery
are happening and after they are over—in our free Facebook 360 app for Gear VR,
available on the Oculus Store.”
Chris Michaels, a Live 360 Ready software maker said: “One
of the biggest challenges for content creators has been delivering in a high
enough resolution to provide breathtaking 360 degree experiences. With 4k, we
don’t have to worry about rendering down high-quality video and can deliver it
at its optimal design rate.”
There will be scheduling to live 360 and donate button on
Facebook. Scheduling will help Live 360 broadcasters to notify their friends and followers of upcoming broadcast. This notification will be posted to their
new feeds. And Donate button will allow nonprofits to raise their funds by
streaming a Live 360 broadcast.
Facebook has added many other functions/tools while making
Live 360 streaming. Like when your video is shaking during streaming live, so
it will use stabilization tool to steady it. Video author can identify specific
points of interest in video to direct viewers by guide tool. Heatmap tool will
help to show you which part of your video most engage your viewers. And Croosport
tool will help in broadening the distribution of your video.

quality control over that content.”

longstanding goal of Facebook.”
