360 GizmosBringing Virtual Reality to Tweens
Here’s why Everen T. Brown thinks his new products should be featured in TDmonthly Magazine’s documentary, TOY FRENZY!:
My travels have taken me more than 1,000,000 miles photographing some of the world's most remote regions for the world's first interactive 360 Degree World Atlas. Along the way, I wanted to create a 360 Degree Panoramic Camera for kids. However, I needed to find the right partners to develop it properly and bring it in at a reasonable price point.
CONFERENCE SPARKS PARTNERSHIP
I was asked to speak at a Virtual Reality conference a few years ago, and at the opening dinner I was seated across from one of the most brilliant people I ever met. As we took turns telling our fellow attendees what we do in this niche market, he mentioned that his company had pioneered a way to make a special lens at a very attractive price point.
Upon hearing that, I arranged for further discussions.
READY FOR THE FAIR
We signed some paperwork and a few days later I met with him and his associate and mentioned the word "toy!" He loved the idea and we slowly went to work on it.
We are ready to show the world these two incredible products at Toy Fair 2008.
This revolutionary new camera will allow kids to capture and create full 360-degree panoramic images that can be converted into Virtual Reality (VR) Images and viewed on a computer. They can also be shared online through one click Virtual Reality programming and posted on a special website. Another feature will let one print these long, skinny images. With the 360-degree capability, everything is captured in a true "you-are-there" photo. How about am image from a birthday party that has everyone in one shot? Or creating Virtual Tours of your neighborhood to share with other kids halfway around the world? The possibilities for fun and education are endless with a camera that puts everything in one interesting image. ToyDirectory Product ID#: 17083 (added 1/17/2008) . TD
The world's first interactive 360 Degree World Atlas will allow children to wander through penguin rookeries in Antarctica and stand in awe of the giant Moai statues on Easter Island. More than 1,000 Virtual Tours of the world's most incredible destinations are featured on this educational DVD software. Combining maps and Virtual Reality, viewers can travel around the world in just a few clicks of their computer mouse. 360 Degree Photographer Everen T. Brown traveled more than 1 million miles to create this unique piece of interactive software that lets children become world explorers, creating their own passport and even going on a Global Scavenger Hunt, finding answers hidden in the images.
