Yes. An immersive 360° Live VR broadcast needs a suitable 360° camera with compatible RTMP live-streaming capability. Organisers can use their own compatible camera or purchase one from OowOah.

Will any 360° camera work?

Do not assume a camera that records 360° video can also provide the required live stream. Confirm the particular model and its compatibility before planning the event. Test the actual camera, connection and venue arrangement rather than relying on the product category alone.

Do audience members need a camera too?

No. The organiser's camera captures the event. Viewers attend using Meta Quest 3 or Meta Quest 3S headsets with the required audience access. Capture equipment and viewing equipment have different roles.

What should I do before announcing an event?

Discuss the intended setup with OowOah and rehearse the broadcast. Check the camera view, presenter audio and programme. This is a live 360° event experience, separate from showing one conventional RTMP feed during a business VR meeting.
