SOVREN’s first major standard is PanaMaxVR™, a groundbreaking VR motion picture format designed for cinemas, restaurants, specialty venues, and home theaters. PanaMaxVR™ redefines VR storytelling by enabling breathtaking 180º and 360º visuals, paired with 128 channels of immersive sound that envelop viewers from every direction. This format transcends traditional flat motion picture screens, offering creators and audiences a new realm of cinematic VR possibilities while maintaining compatibility with previous motion picture formats.
CiniVista, LLC is a founding member of SOVREN and will be the first to implement the PanaMaxVR™ format in its VistaDome™ VR auditoriums. Working closely with SOVREN, CiniVista is helping to validate and refine PanaMaxVR™, ensuring it meets the highest standards for both creators and audiences. Together SOVREN and CiniVista invite artists, directors and filmmaker to elevate their craft and to push the boundaries of immersive entertainment to a level that has not been previously possible.
