Now that virtual reality is becoming more popular, and more accessible to the masses thanks to products like Google Cardboard and the Dodocase, vcemo is set to be created as a dedicated video platform for VR content. vcemo's creators describe that this "This new form of 360-degree immersive media means that watching a video will no longer be a passive experience."
Currently raising funds on Kickstarter, this platform is set to be a place where people can plug into 3D content with the use of their own virtual reality headset, such as an Oculus Rift, Samsung Gear VR, or a more affordable option. Just like YouTube, vcemo will be a place for users to upload their own VR content as well as experience it.
