LIMASSOL, Cyprus—VirtualTaboo.com, the 5-year-old company that produces virtual reality adult content, has become the first VR porn site to release that content in the 7K-quality format.
Founded in 2015, VirtualTaboo.com, one of the first high-end VR sites, will be using 7K for all new content starting April 3.
“We’ve always been at the forefront of tech,” said Capo Rockett, President of Virtual Taboo. “At a time when more people are looking for realistic, immersive experiences from home, we are upping our game and transporting them off the couch. 7K promises to make all the existing content on the market look like the standard of ten years ago.”
The new 7K format broadcasts in 7260x3630 resolution, and shoots without interpolation in real 60fps footage. The 10-bit footage displays up to 1.07 billion colors, a vast improvement over the older 8-bit footage with just 16.7 million colors.
The 7K images perception is the closest format ever to the human vision field, and with the expansion to 200-degree videos, makes user perception more immersive and intense.
As is often the case, adult is leading the way in technology, and Virtual Taboo’s 7K videos push the envelope. Existing VR headsets available on the market have difficulty sustaining this ground-breaking technology, but consumer demand, led by porn, will force change. But even for those without a 7K-enabled headset, the quality will be higher across the board. All of Virtual Taboo’s new videos will now be shot in the 7K format originally and re-encoded to work for existing headsets.
“As the first to bring 7K into the market, we see this as a great opportunity and stimulus for the VR manufacturers to enhance their products and help them evolve,” said Rockett. “7K will quickly become the new normal and industry standard, making VR porn even more real—perhaps more seemingly real than our own lives at this challenging time.”
To see 7K videos in action, visit VirtualTaboo.com starting tomorrow, April 3.
