Aber ich hab grad mal geguckt. War vor 3 Jahren ja auch hier so ... Zufällig auch wieder mit dem guten @Jott der das auch nicht so kritisch sieht wie ich.
Hier ging es um VR / 180 / 360 Grad bzw AR:

Ja, was ist eigentlich aus dem "das ist die Zukunft" halben VR Format geworden?
Anscheinend sind alle Partner abgesprungen.
Lenovo verkauft die Mirage auf der Resterampe
However, two years later, the Mirage Camera is sold out on Lenovo’s website and at a number of other retailers. A Lenovo spokesperson said that the company was still selling the device in select markets, but declined to comment further.
Yi konzentriert sich lieber auf Überwachungs- und Dashboard Kameras
Fellow consumer electronics maker Yi was a bit more upfront when asked about the fate of its Yi Horizon VR180 camera. First shown off at the Consumer Electronics Show in January of 2018, the camera was supposed to go on sale later that year. However, 2018 came and went without the device reaching store shelves. This month, a Yi spokesperson told Variety that the company had no plans to launch it this year either. The company was instead focusing on home security and in-car cameras, the spokesperson added.
Und LG hat es bisher auch nicht geschafft ne Kamera anzukündigen, geschweige denn zu liefern.
LG, which was also supposed to make a VR180 camera, never even got around to announcing a dedicated device for the format.
Und Google selbst? Sieht nicht so aus als ob die noch dran glauben.
Without any consumer-grade VR180 cameras available in the market, Google seems to have put software support for the format on the back-burner as well.
The VR180 mobile app was last updated in December of 2018, despite the fact that many reviewers complain about issues with offloading content. “VR180 appears abandoned by Google,” one of those reviewers concluded.
VR180 is just the latest of Google’s VR projects to stall.
Earlier this year, the company shut down its Jump cloud-based stitching service for 360-degree video footage.
A VR camera jointly developed by Google and Imax never saw the light of day, and while Google’s Daydream VR platform is still up and running, it has been abandoned by multiple app publishers, including HBO and Hulu.
