Monday, Youtube announced that it will now support 360-degree live-streaming.
To celebrate the announcement, YouTube going to be live-streaming 360-degree videos from the Coachella music festival, which is currently taking place in California.
YouTube will be live-streaming select artist performances in 360 degrees this weekend.
"Just as watching a concert in 360 degrees can give you an unmatched immersive experience, spatial audio allows you to listen along as you do in real life, where depth, distance and intensity all play a role," Mohan said.
He then said "To make sure all creators can tell awesome stories with virtual reality, we've been working with companies across the industry. We're working with companies like VideoStitch and Two Big Ears to make their software compatible with 360-degree live streams or spatial audio on YouTube and more will be available soon. We'll also make 360-degree live streaming and spatial audio technologies available at all YouTube Space locations around the globe, so you can take it for a spin."
Here are some 360-degree spatial audio examples.
Hopefully we get to see some VR Compatibility, so that maybe in the future you could be at a virtual concert while wearing a VR Headset using this 360-degree technology.
