Formula E Is Even More Captivating in 360 Degrees

Formula E is n’t just different from its established sib in what ’s under the bonnet . Up top , there ’s power boost activated by tweets , a patrician whine rather of the iconic roar , and now 360 - point photographic camera riding on top .

The 360 - degree television is a highlight of the Formula E Buenos Aires slipstream , admit all a sizable telephone number of overtakes , clank , and solemnisation . Fast racing can be disorient , since everything moves so fast , and cameras are limited to a narrow viewpoint . The 360 - level video is substantially viewed through a VR headset , but it ’s even a step up over normal highlights in Chrome .

Racing is also a good use - case for practical reality . Most conventional sports broadcasts are already using cautiously institute photographic camera angles , and look decidedly weird in VR . But stick a bunch of 360 - point photographic camera into a fast - pace steering wheel - to - wheel race , and you have something that might just get me to welt a phone to my face .
