This seems like a step in the right direction away from sphere-projected 'immersive' video. Very cool and can't wait for the 6dof VR player to be ready!

Yes, sphere-projected VR/360 video isn't immersive enough given its limitation to 3 DoF. 6DoF video feels so much more immersive.

The motion parallx supported here makes it more natural to consume such content and when you drive the motion yourself (using our Vimmerse player) this takes you to a whole new level. For some content, you really feel that you are present there!
