This time, it adds in something most people are already familiar with: an element of sharing.

But first things first. What does Jump allow people to do? This program allows for the filming and combining of virtual reality videos into one seamless package. It’s a camera rig made up of sixteen camera modules set in a circle. The size and the arrangement complement the Jump assembler.

What’s the big deal about Google Jump? It allows others to see the video the way it was meant to be seen. In other words: you can view a scene in any direction. Anything near to you actually looks near to you, while things that aren’t up close and personal actually look farther away.

Don’t worry about jagged lines, white spots, or blank areas either. With Google Jump, the recorded image is perfectly captured each and every time. There’s never a seam; there’s only a flawless recording experience.

As for the resolution, gone are the days when pictures were blocky and blurry. The final result of the put-together videos feature a resolution so fine that Google compares it to “five 4K TVs playing at once.” Now that’s crystal clear.

Using Google Jump

At the moment, it’s possible to experience these videos captured by Jump right from YouTube, if you install the YouTube app for Android. Do you have a GoPro camera? Select industry pros can currently apply for the chance to be one of the select few to get their hands on the GoPro Odyssey.

The GoPro Odyssey is ready for Jump. It’s a stereoscopic camera rig of sixteen HERO4 cameras that have been synced to work as one, capturing your content in 8K30 video. The videos are then uploaded to the Jump assembler to allow for amazing multi-directional viewing for realistic playback.

Two new camera companies have become partners: IMAX and Yi Technology, a Chinese digital camera manufacturer. It could mean big things for both China and the film industry, two areas clamoring for the Jump camera (especially at the cinema level).

VR Entertainment

While not everyone can get their hands on the GoPro Odyssey, you can still enjoy the experience of Google Jump by watching YouTube videos on your Android phone. Install PSafe’s PowerPRO and let your phone battery last longer, work better, and help keep you in the VR zone without interruption.
