| Hello HN!
|
| "Not another spatial audio company" - is probably what you're
| thinking and we're not! Haha we actually were one of the first
| ones to launch in this space mid last year with our mobile
| offering. I'm personally excited to share how we're building a
| very differentiated product in this new marketplace by telling
| you about the Cinema experience!
|
| Here are some of the key features
|
| Immersive spatial experience
|
| People get louder as you get closer and quieter as you move away
| allowing you to replicate how we communicate in the real world.
| So you chat with the people next to you while watching the
| experience
|
| Full integrated experience platform
|
| Comes with a built in ticketing platform so you can organize and
| monetize your space as needed. Share your event page, get RSVPs
| and more including built in analytics.
|
| Insane customization
|
| You can create a 2D or 3D experiences for maximum immersion. You
| can even decide if you want the experience to be audio only or
| allow video! You can also select from a list of venues for your
| experience.
|
| Watch anything together
|
| Share your screen and watch Netflix, Twitch and any other
| experience you can think of while still being able to freely move
| around and communicate with others in the space.
|
| We've used it to host virtual movie screenings, watch sports
| games and Netflix together.
|
| Feedback and thoughts are welcomed!

| I get what you're doing, I don't get why. Can you give an
| example of where you've seen an event like this be successful
| and better than anything else out there (as in, something that
| is a non-spatial experience).
|
| I have a bit of experience here, as I run 3D mapping spatial
| media company https://ayvri.com, and lots' of people would say
| to us "why would anybody use this", so here's what we say...
|
| Every paraglider in the world uses our platform, I'm not a
| paraglider and it wasn't built for them, but until they saw
| Ayvri, they had no way of sharing their flights. People just
| didn't get what it was all about, and it was difficult to learn
| from other pilots about flying in different regions and
| conditions. Then came the cyclists and mountain bikers, I'm a
| mountain biker, and I'd describe a trail, we could take photos,
| and maps, but with Ayvri, you just watch it and get it. There's
| no mental load in trying to translate a map into a 3D space.
| And you can zoom in or out and spin around to get different
| perspectives, it's better than being there! Then came the drone
| pilots, and commercial pilots that needed to report on their
| flights, particularly when there is an incident. Now instead of
| trying to decode an elevation map with an altitude map, with a
| 2d map, they can just replay their flight and show that they
| either didn't break the law, or .... then came the wildlife
| researchers, this gave them a way to plot and follow the pahts
| of migration, and see how those paths have changed over
| time....and on and on and on....
|
| So rather than just a "you can create a 2D or 3D experience",
| it would be great if you can pin what that 2D or 3D experience
| should be all about, otherwise, it's just....yeah, I can...but
| why should I?

| Should I expect problems if I share my Netflix movie or Sky
| Sports soccer match with invited guests who _don 't_ have their
| own subscription? I mean, it's fine to invite friends round for
| the game or a film etc (I think - except for the current
| pandemic), but is there a limit to numbers?

| rebroadcasting changes things, but if it's not illegal in
| principle, sharing it privately should not be a problem.
|
| IANAL
