Lytro is Positioning Its Light Field Tech as VR’s Master Capture Format
“Lytro, a leading light-field company, is positioning its light-field capture and playback technology as the ideal format for immersive content. The company is building a toolset for capturing, rendering, and intermingling both synthetic and live-action light-field experiences which can then be delivered at the highest quality playback supported by each individual platform.
Light-fields are pre-computed scenes which can recreate the view from any point within the captured or rendered volume. In short, that means that a light-field can be played back as scenes which exceed the graphical capabilities of real-time rendering while still retaining immersive 6DOF positional tracking and (to an extent) interactivity. Though not without its own challenges, light-fields aim to combine the best of real-time immersion with the visual quality of pre-rendered VR experiences…”
