Some pretty bad stitching artifacting during the bicycle section. Looks like dynamic range is going to be a problem too: when biking under the overpass, the whites were blown out and overexposed, while the darks were muddy and underexposed.

Can it produce 3D footage, I wonder? Intuitively, it feels like 360-degree 3D video would require a heck of a lot of cameras.

Yeah, 3D video is "easy". 360 video is "easy". But 3D, 360 video is hard. So far the only traditional solutions I've seen (without using several depth cameras set up around a room) involve a ball of cameras and custom software that can be used to both stitch together video and also interpolate depth based on the different angles.

Very interested in this stuff though. None of the current solutions in development fall within my video and VR hobbyist/enthusiast budget but that never lasts too long.
