SpatialGen is a cutting-edge spatial cloud platform designed to stream immersive and spatial video content, especially for Apple’s immersive computing devices like the Vision Pro. At its core, SpatialGen enables creators and developers to host, stream, and manage ultra-high-resolution spatial video using advanced codecs and APIs tailored for three-dimensional media distribution.
How SpatialGen Works
SpatialGen simplifies the traditionally complex pipeline of immersive media distribution by combining encoding, packaging, hosting, and playback into a unified cloud service. Content creators upload their spatial or immersive videos—often encoded with MV-HEVC, a multi-view extension of the HEVC codec optimized for depth and stereo data—and SpatialGen handles the rest: adaptive streaming, playback links, DRM, analytics, and global CDN delivery.
Key technical elements include:
- MV-HEVC support: Allows efficient streaming of depth-rich immersive content that looks natural on devices like Vision Pro.
- Cross-platform streaming: A single stream can target multiple devices and formats with minimal overhead.
- One-click DRM and analytics: Built-in licensing and usage insights simplify enterprise and prosumer workflows.
- SpatialGen API: Developers can automate and tailor streaming workflows for their own applications.
SpatialGen in Vision Pro Apps
SpatialGen isn’t just a backend service—it’s actively integrated into real Vision Pro experiences. Some prominent examples include:
Explore POV
A popular immersive travel and exploration app on Vision Pro that transports users to breathtaking locations through 16K spatial video. SpatialGen helps deliver the ultra-high-resolution streams that make the environments feel vivid and life-like.
SpatialGen Spatial Streaming (official app)
This free app allows Vision Pro users (and other Apple devices) to open and play spatial video streams directly, including 180°/360° content and spatial formats hosted via SpatialGen. It doubles as a testing and playback tool of SpatialGen’s own metadata and streaming tech.
Other immersive titles
While not all Vision Pro apps publicly disclose their backend infrastructure, a range of spatial and immersive video apps—such as Immersive India, Vantage Combat Sports, and Spatial Film—are highlighted within SpatialGen’s ecosystem as examples of high-quality Vision Pro content powered by its streaming services.
Pricing includes a free plan for hobbyist and artists that want to share their work for free (up to 3 hours of Spatial Video).
