LOS ANGELES—CAM4 and VRTube.xxx on Monday announced a strategic partnership that will bring Virtual Reality live cams to the public through CAM4's platform.
CAM4 spokesperson Derek Devlin said, “This partnership is really exciting because it marries VRTube’s technology with our own pioneering VR research and development.
"Together, we have created a best in class VR experience that will be fully integrated into CAM4.com, making VR cams accessible for all. We are committed to empowering performers to monetize across all mediums and VR is just one of the exciting new platforms we are developing to support our broadcasters.
"This unique service offers our users an experience that far surpasses what was possible with any 2D analog live streaming. It’s a new era for live cams and we are excited to be at the forefront of this emerging technology."
VRTube.xxx was co-founded in 2014 by Ela Darling, the producer-performer who has championed Virtual Reality as a means for transforming adult content into a fully immersive experience.
“Live VR cams are the most engaging and powerful experience yet made for Virtual Reality,” Darling said. “The most attractive aspects of live cams are intimacy, immediacy, and presence. VR amplifies these aspects to create a performance that goes beyond what was previously attainable and soon to be available from CAM4.com. People can have a much more personal cam viewing experience than with traditional cam shows.”
VRTube.xxx specializes in full 360° experiences rendered in real world environments.
CAM4VR’s commitment is that performers will broadcast from their own home and viewers will be able to transport themselves to the performers bedroom with a full 360° view. CAM4VR will support all of the popular VR headsets available today including Oculus Rift, Gear VR, HTC Vive and Google Cardboard with your Android phone.
Darling will discuss the venture at the upcoming CamCon conference in Miami this June.
