Kolor launches Kolor Eyes, the world’s first 360° video player based on HTML5 for web browsers and iPad

After several months of experimentations, the team of Kolor is glad to officially launch Kolor Eyes, the world’s first 360° video player based on HTML5. Using the latest technology standards, Kolor Eyes is offered as an iPad app and a WebApp that does not need any extra plugin to run.

Both the iPad version and the desktop version offer different projection modes to let you play and interact with the videos. The iPad version also takes advantage of the gyroscope, enabling you to move your iPad to interact with the video and literally immerse yourself in it. You can also choose your own 360° videos and play them on your iPad.

Play the demo videos or load your own 360 videos.
