[PhilNote: this is a prerecorded experience, not a live 360 camera on the plane.]
Lufthansa has tested a new inflight virtual reality experience, the ‘VR Moving Map' which has been trialed on a flight to Dubai.
The VR Moving Map allows passengers wearing special VR glasses were able to view the moving landscape below them as a 3D map and even take part in 360° virtual excursions as they immersed themselves in places of interest.
As the aircraft flew over Vienna, some passengers virtually rode the Prater Ferris Wheel or even had the chance to virtually attend one of the city's famous classical concerts. The prototype was developed by Lufthansa in cooperation with 3spin, Lufthansa's lead agency for virtual and augmented reality.
The technology was piloted on a Lufthansa Airbus A330 flying from Frankfurt to Dubai.
