360-degree video

A 360-degree video (or 360° video), also known as surround video, or immersive video or spherical video, is a video recording where a view in all directions is recorded at the same time, shot using an omnidirectional camera or a collection of cameras. The term 360x180 can be used to indicate 360° of azimuth and 180° from nadir to zenith. During playback on normal flat display the viewer has control of the viewing direction like an immersive panorama. It can also be played on a display or projectors arranged in a sphere or some part of a sphere.
