It’s 360-degree video. What it is is video formatted for virtual reality. Facebook supports the video format because they own Oculus and believe VR is the future (and they’re right – Disney recently bought a VR company too, and every company at E3 had a VR platform).

Here’s a 360-degree camera:

Here’s a Facebook-exclusive 360-degree video of Star Wars: The Force Awakens: New ‘Star Wars: Force Awakens’ 360 Video That Is Neither A Trailer Nor A Clip
