Abstract
A system and method of capturing view-point-encoded 360° video data with a 360° camera includes capturing a frame of video including a substantially 360° view and contemporaneously receiving position information from one or more mobile electronic devices such as cellphones linked to the camera. The position information identifies a viewpoint associated with each mobile electronic device. The camera records the captured video frame and the received position information together such that one or more of the viewpoints may be selected during later playback.
