Littlstar brings 360-degree videos to Apple TV

The year that we are about to start is going to be that of virtual reality. Many are the manufacturers that will bring to the market the devices in which they have been working for several years such as Oculus, Sony, HTC and Samsung. Models Sony and HTC will focus on adapting virtual reality to video games, as Sony showed us in the official presentation of its virtual reality glasses that are called PlayStation VR. 

Currently we can already enjoy the virtual reality through Google cardboard glasses, that depending on whether we orient the head to the left or right, the device screen will show the left or right part of what we are viewing. Obviously the content has to be recorded in 360 to be able to offer this type of content.

Littlstar is an application that has just been made compatible with Apple TV that allows us to enjoy 360-degree scenarios using the Siri Remote and its touchpad. Behind this application is Disney so the content that we can find through this application is of quality. Among the content providers we find National Geographic, The Wall Street Journal or ShowTime.

Disney offers us a large number of videos available directly from its platform as if it were a kind of YouTube but with 360-degree images on which in addition to scrolling we can zoom to see the content more closely. But in addition, the application will also show us videos uploaded by private users or other companies, but they will be previously reviewed so that Littlstar does not become a YouTube where everyone uploads any type of video, many of those of poor quality.
