Immersive Spatial Video Production

This skill is for passive video deliverables that surround or partially surround the viewer: monoscopic 360, stereoscopic 360, VR180, spatial video, dome/wide-FOV video, and headset-first immersive films. It helps an agent make production decisions, write capture and finishing plans, review outputs, and troubleshoot delivery failures without depending on one camera vendor, headset, or generator.

Do not activate this skill for interactive XR applications, OpenXR/WebXR app design, volumetric scene generation, Gaussian-splat/world-model navigation, realtime game-engine builds, or ordinary flat 16:9/9:16 edits unless the requested output explicitly needs spherical, stereo, spatial, wide-FOV, or headset delivery.

• YouTube Help: Upload 180- or 360-degree videos; Use spatial audio in 360-degree and VR videos.
• Google Spatial Media Spherical Video V2 RFC and Spatial Audio RFC, plus Spatial Media Metadata Injector v2.1 release notes.
• Khronos OpenXR and W3C WebXR specifications for boundary definition only: they describe interactive XR runtimes, not passive video production deliverables.
• Professional production heuristics are labeled as heuristics, because comfort thresholds vary by headset optics, viewer sensitivity, screen scale, and playback app.
