Remember: desync'd head motion w/ virtual camera perspective motion = violent nausea.
So limit the applicable use cases to where that isn't going to happen.
The excitement about this is that it makes that no longer a concern for sufficiently small values of head motion. Read: the motion that occurs when the best of your body is not moving.
Oh, and every high security facility in the world would love these as they're capable of mapping out 3D positioning, enabling very precise face detection, etc...
And imagine live concerts sent to be displayed on VR headsets!
Also, in many cases you can likely use 4-6 in a grid to capture the entire scene.
