VR-Compatible Streaming Services

This Company Plans to Use VR Glasses to Improve Video Streaming

— October 23, 2015 — Tech
Amazon recently showed an interest in using VR glasses to improve the video streaming experience. In recent years, VR technology has been used to enhance everything from fashion shows to campus tours. Now Amazon wants to incorporate the smart technology into its streaming service.

Although Amazon has not officially announced the details of its new move, the company recently acquired a patent for a pair of VR smart glasses. The glasses are designed to improve the video streaming experience for consumers by offering immersive content. The glasses are largely intended for those who stream video content on tablets or other mobile devices. When the screen appears directly in front of the viewer, the glasses provide an immersive VR experience.

Amazon's new patent could change the nature of video streaming by giving consumers the option to experience their favorite content in a new way. If the glasses prove popular, Amazon's original content may be tailored to complement VR technology.
Trend Themes
1. Vr-enhanced Video Streaming - Companies can explore the use of VR technology to improve the video streaming experience, offering immersive content to users.
2. VR Smart Glasses - Smart glasses with VR technology have potential to become a new product category in the market, changing how users stream video content.
3. Incorporating Immersive Content - Businesses that incorporate VR technology in their streaming services can provide users with more interactive and engaging content, creating a unique selling point.
Industry Implications
1. Entertainment - The entertainment industry can create new and innovative ways to offer VR-enhanced video streaming services, revolutionizing how users consume content.
2. Technology - Tech companies can develop VR smart glasses that work seamlessly with popular streaming services, opening up a new market segment.
3. Marketing - Marketers can explore ways of using VR technology to create immersive brand experiences in video content, engaging audiences in new and innovative ways.
