“…In a 360-degree format, in contrast to the traditional video format where the point of view is determined by the creative director, and viewers are passive, viewers have a free and omnidirectional viewpoint which they can move arbitrarily through all the angles of a 360-degree radius.

That is, consumers are able to control, customize, and change their viewing experience and information flow.…”
