Jump is an open VR camera design created by Google. At its core, Jump is an assembler that combines multiple video feeds to create a seemless 3D environment. The design features 16 viewpoints and will be released to the public to allow 3rd parties to manufacture the device. Jump is able to create 360 Videos by capturing stereoscopic 3D footage in 360 degrees around the device.

Google has teamed up with GoPro to create the first version of the device. It features a ring-shaped array with 16 GoPro HERO4 cameras lining the rim. It uses software to stitch together the footage from various cameras to create the stereoscopic and panoramic videos.

Features

  • Stereoscopic 3D in every direction.
  • Seamless panoramic video without boarders.
  • Resolution is equivalent of 5 Ultra HD (4K) TVs playing at once.

Hardware

GoPro 360 Camera Array consist of 16 HERO4 cameras arranged facing outward in a ring.

Software

  • An assembler that stitches multiple video feeds to create seemless 3D world.
  • Frame level synchronization of all 16 cameras.
  • Storage architecture to record video locally then transfer it to the cloud.
  • Highly parallel hardware pipelines to process and reduce the data to a manageable rate.

History

May 28, 2015 Announced in Google I/O 2015.
