# Immersive Widescreen Headsets The Cinera is an HD Headset That Offers an IMAX-Like Experience By Joey Haar | Published 2017-08-17 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinera References: [theverge](https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2017/8/16/16159068/cinera-personal-theater-headset-imax-kickstarter) & [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2074302220/cinera-an-immersive-personal-theater-headset) At first glance, the Cinera looks like a VR headset. However, the device is dedicated to displaying traditional media (i.e. television and films especially) in a format that users haven't ever experienced in their homes. The Cinera offers an [IMAX](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xgimis-horizon-max)-like media experience, broadening one's field of vision to bring the theater into one's living room. Cinera differs from other VR headsets in the extent of its image quality. Other headsets offer the same wraparound vision as the Cinera, but the new entertainment device does so with far higher resolution. Its pixels per degree — the amount of pixels dedicated to each degree of human vision — is 39. By comparison, the HTC [Vive](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vive-focus-3) headset offers 9.8 pixels per degree and the [Oculus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/google-glasses) Rift 11.5. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Immersive Widescreen Headsets:** Immersive widescreen headsets are becoming popular in the entertainment industry by bringing the theater experience into people's homes. - **High-resolution VR Headsets:** High-resolution VR headsets are disrupting the traditional media market by providing a superior visual experience for movies and television shows. - **Advanced Pixel Technology:** Advancements in pixel technology, such as the Cinera's 39 pixels per degree, are creating new opportunities for enhanced visual experiences in various industries. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can leverage immersive widescreen headsets, like Cinera, to create an at-home theater experience for consumers. - **Consumer Electronics:** The consumer electronics industry can create a new market for high-resolution VR headsets, like Cinera, for consumers looking for a superior visual experience. - **Education:** Advanced pixel technology, like Cinera's 39 pixels per degree, can be used in the education industry to create more immersive and realistic visual experiences for students. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Retina-Level VR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retinalevel-vr-headset.md) - [8K-Resolution VR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pimax-crystal.md) - [Compact Featherlight VR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigscreen-beyond-headset.md) - [Head-Mounted HD Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goovis-g3x.md) - [Ultra-Clear VR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arpara.md) - [Cinematic Projector Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xgimis-horizon-max.md) - [Headset-Free VR Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dimenco-srprodisplay.md) - [Accessible PCVR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pimax-crystal-light.md) - [Cinema-Scale AR Smart Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightweight-ar-glasses.md)
