Facebook Entices VR Content Creators With Open Source Surround Cam

What's more, this summer Facebook will offer the plans for the camera and the code for its software for free on the popular developers' website GitHub.

"We're open-sourcing the camera and the software to accelerate the growth of the 3D-360 ecosystem -- developers can leverage the designs and code, and content creators can use the camera in their productions," Cabral said.
