Hi,
last year I was already able to create stereoscopic panoramas with Octane, watch them with Oculus DK2 and the Kolor player. I think that the "living pictures" are the interesting thing.
I ordered one S6 + Gear VR (finally available) because I want to see if 360° stereo renders can be visualized with the light field technology.
I don't want to wait for a 360° Light field camera from Lytro.
regards
waiting for the Light field player

We're working on it, but our timing is going to be based on supporting real PC VR devices like CV1. The DK2 is not a mass market device, and in fact you can't get them any more.
The Gear VR is a good starting point. Any 360 image/video render you make in Octane for the ORBX gear player, is 99% of the way there for a light field render, which will just give you a 1 cubic meter volume to move in per light field render job.
If you want to send us an ORBX scene we can render a test for you, but it will be on orc.otoy.com too.
The first live light field streams will be our HTML client in a normal viewport - just like we know have stereo cube map viewing on the web site.

So when can we actually view this content? I have fun streaming my desktop to the GearVr, but it would nice to see a light field attached to my vive controller in a gearvr.
