Felix and Paul Studios have announced that they have started filming episodes 3 and 4 of the multi-part virtual reality documentary "Space Explorer: The International Space Station Experience" outside the International Space Station so you can enjoy a 360-degree virtual object. Capable of experiencing the edge of the 3D video room.
The documentary "Space Explorer: The International Space Station Experience" enables you to understand life on the International Space Station.
The outdoor scene was recorded with a custom VR space camera from Felix & Paul Studios. This is the first attempt to use the International Space Station as a space camera to record 360-degree 3D videos.
On the other hand, these scenes are expected to be broadcast in the third episode in the fall of 2021 and in the fourth in the winter of 2021.
This series is unique to Oculus and offers VR support through the Rift, Quest, and Quest 2 glasses via the Oculus Store.
Hence, a video of the International Space Station dome gives you an idea of what it might be like when observing space.
The studio said the custom space camera is based on the commercially available Z-Cam V1 Pro.
The Space Camera consists of nine 4K sensors that can record 3D 360-degree images in 8K resolution.
In addition, it is particularly strengthened by Nanoracks which can withstand a variety of harsh conditions. Including the vacuum of space, solar ultraviolet radiation, ionizing radiation, and plasma. Combine surface loading, bending, temperature extremes and thermal cycles.
Space Camera is designed to store about 15 hours of 3D 360-degree video. The lens is designed to withstand strong light and heat to reduce glare from direct sunlight.
In addition, a space camera is attached to the Canadaarm2 robotic arm, which moves around the space station's exoskeleton.

At outdoor temperatures from -155°C to +121°C, this is an impressive feat.
The Emmy Award-winning studio Felix & Paul is responsible for producing virtual reality films such as Miyubi, the Nomads series, Strangers, and The Confessional.
The Montreal studio has also developed a variety of products for existing franchisees such as Jurassic World.
Envision the collaboration creating virtual reality experiences for NASA and SpaceX. The studio has also worked with President Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, and President Bill Clinton.
If you want to watch the first episode of Space Explorer: The International Space Station Experience. You can buy it from Oculus for $3 per episode. Each episode lasts about 30 minutes.
"Earth has yet to be experienced in 3D and 360-degree space in space outside the space station," Jonathan Woods, executive producer of the series, told Time Studio (one of the original project units along with NASA).
