  The future is here. Virtual reality and augmented reality have been blowing minds in the world of gaming for some time now, but there’s a lot more to these cutting-edge technologies than just letting you outrun zombies in a post-apocalyptic world.

Thomas Coughlin wrote this great piece for Post Perspective regarding the future of VR 

The HPA Tech Retreat, run by the Hollywood Professional Association in association with SMPTE, began with an insightful one-day VR seminar— Integrating Virtual Reality/Augmented Reality into Entertainment Applications. Lucas Wilson from SuperSphere kicked off the sessions and helped with much of the organization of the seminar.

The seminar addressed virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR, a subset of AR where the real world and the digital world interact, like Pokeman Go).

VideoStitch becomes Orah

By Jim Bask 0 Comment February 14, 2017

 

Last week, VideoStitch announced some exciting news! 

 

Have you ever thought about changing your name? Well, we have. And today the day has come. Today, we officially change our company name from VideoStitch to Orah.

The reason is simple, really. Five years ago, when VideoStitch was first founded, its name was obvious. We were developing our first product, a software to simplify and speed up 360 video stitching. And to be honest that was all we wanted at the time. Hence, the very descriptive name VideoStitch. Back then we never imagined the company to become this successful and grow into what it is today.
