Watch this 360-degree Video World record dodgeball game. Hit the full screen mode, it's pretty awesome. :rockout

I'm curious to see what video camera rig was used? I'm guessing multiple cameras and the frames were stitched together between the cameras into a spherical map?

Yeah it looks like this. A few times when balls hit the camera mounts and make only one of them jiggle you can see the lines where images are put together.

It does look pretty cool on 3 screens. Too bad it's low-res , woulda looked nicer if it wasn't so blocky.

Woah indeed ! Amazing. And a good demonstration that edge distortion (fisheye) does not only affect surround ARs...
