📼Video Summary:
The Sphere is an entertainment venue that was completed in September of 2023. It was built just off the Las Vegas Strip. It has the largest 360 degree wrap around LED screen in the world. It has 1.2 million lights - these are nicknamed "Hockey Pucks" because of their size and shape. The inside has 9 different levels, but the public will be mostly concerned with 7 of them. On the Main Level is the Atrium which has lots to do before your show. Aura the Robot uses AI to interact with those around her. There is also a holographic grid above your head which looks like something straight out of Star Trek. There 160,000 speakers directly behind the screen. These use Beamforming Technology to give you "headset sound without the headset". Combine this with Haptic Technology which will gives viewers a completely immersive experience. But don't take my word for it, you have see it for yourself.

Can you make a video on The Louvre that would be interesting!!!

[@miscellaneoussarnian5282]

if you're wondering what that patch of asphalt just north of the Sphere is. That's the "Sphere Chicane" that they use in F1

[@JaredOwen]

It confused me a first because the reference images kept show different things.

[@rishikaul5048]

It was originally going to be a hairpin turn before it was turned into a chicane when designing the final layout of the track.

[@PicnicAtTheTesco]

I went to vegas for christmas, first time in the USA. I didn't go in the Sphere, but my hotel room had a view onto it and I'd just sit watching the patterns whilst drinking my beer. The snow globe one really blew my mind!

[@erangabay]

From which hotel could you see it?

[@delwoodbarker]

I saw Postcard Earth, it was a great demo movie. I was in the front of the 400 level, two sections left. Some of the scenes naturally had a spherical distortion, but mostly it was realistic. If you have fear of heights, you'll be thrilled just getting to your seat. Tip: The time on the ticket was entry time, showtime was 1 hr later. When I went, they let the line in a half hour early.

[@JaredOwen]

Great to hear your experience with it. I'll be curious what other movies they'll make to show on the screen!

[@kwkaior]

Those speakers are blowing my mind though. Were you able to hear everything clearly?

[@erangabay]

Would you reccomand the 400 level? In terms of price vs experience

[@JazAcrossTheWorld]

@@kwkaior no matter where you sit, it’ll sound like you’re getting the best sound

[@wdbaudio]

The speakers are designed and made by a company called HOLOPLOT. They do truly incredible work with beamforming. Not just in the horizontal axis like others they can beamform in 3D space, much like aiming a floodlight

[@JaredOwen]

Very cool stuff - the tech still blows my mind

[@ClockMaster-mq2hm]

@@JaredOwen A question: at 8:00, the 3D Model of the speakers ... I was wondering, whether the smaller circular segments scattered irregularly all around were an issue of the 3D-Model, or actually intentional 🤔

do you ever go to these locations and ask for a tour and show that you want to make a video like this? i mean these animations are incredible

Yes! I have asked for tours before. A lot of the modeling for this one is based off of reference images and other vlogs

[@FlatEarthMath]

I know a thing or two about 3D modeling and rendering, and about animation and video editing. This little 10 minute video is a work of art, and probably represents 1000 hours of work. 🙂

[@alexlubbers1589]

Las vegas local here! I have not been inside the sphere (yet), but seeing the exterior is incredible. Even from miles away it dominates the skyline. I have driven close by it once, and it was displaying a cascading glitter effect that faded into a shimmering geometric pattern in colors of gold and silver. Really awesome.

[@drockjr]

Imagine if Las Vegas had a natural skyline instead of a sphere of ads

[@alexlubbers1589]

@@drockjr nah, let Vegas be the oddball. Plus for scenic non-city skylines we got Mount Charleston and Red Rocks to the west, making a great backdrop for sunsets and sunrise.

[@kai6887]

Love that you give context to the building in terms of geography and how to get there, really sets the stage well to fully understand the structure!

[@JaredOwen]

Thanks! I always try to give as much detail as possible to not leave out any plot holes within these videos for the best viewer experience possible!

[@ionymous6733]

This kind of preview makes me feel a lot more comfortable going to a venue. Knowing what to expect relaxes me and I can spend more time enjoying what's there. Other venues should pay you to do this for them.

[@JaredOwen]

That'd be awesome! I'm also planning to do more venues like this in the future so stay tuned if you're interested!

[@jordanplumb5941]

Seriously!!! How is there so much information and 3d animation so regularly uploaded. This channel surely deserves more recognition

Thanks Salada!

[@djohnson3022]

I was at the sphere Nov 23rd 2023. The seats are like Disney world attractions in Florida. The film is awesome. If you actually look at the people on the screen. You might see your face in the group of people on projection screens. It was a unique experience. But if you are in fear of heights sit lower. I sat up top and watch the view. I can't figure out which had the better sound system. Allegiant stadium or the sphere. Nonetheless a good time ❤❤

[@Vector_Ze]

Left out was the cost of admission. Personally, the dollar cost would be trivial when compared to the need to go to Las Vegas to experience the Sphere. I lived there 40 some years ago, and if I ever return it will be much too soon. Nice presentation, as always!

[@JaredOwen]

Thanks Vector - I probably should have included something about price but the problem is that that information changes so quickly!

[@frontrowviews]

As long as tickets cost $100+ this isn’t gonna be revolutionary or change the way we see movies or concerts in any way

[@MrSatyre1]

Ever heard of trickle down technology? This is an example of trickle-up technology, where tech that's been around for a long time is simply being scaled up massively for much larger audiences. Beamforming or directional audio has been around for decades, and has been used in home theater speaker bars and separates for more than a decade. LED walls for homes are still quite expensive, but are quickly dropping in price.

[@JaredOwen]

True - some of those ticket prices are getting pretty steep😮

[@nlion9180]

That was a great video, loved your animation breakdown of the structure. Looking forward to watching more of these, keep it up!

[@StubbyPhillips]

Please explain in what way those spinning LEDs have anything at all to do with holography. The word "hologram" has a specific meaning and it does NOT mean 2D images that are simply transparent. That includes 2D images projected or reflected on transparent screens (Tupac et al.)

[@metal_closet]

[@cabcalloway674]

Is this video sponsored? It just seems like Jared went way out of his way to heap praise upon this thing at every chance he got. Having seen so many other reviews that said it was only so-so, it's hard to see why Jared can't help himself but paint everything in the most positive light possible. I didn't want him to say it sucks or anything, but the overly reverential choice of words that are consistently used throughout this video didn't sit right with me.

[@JaredOwen]

Not sponsored😀 But you're right, I probably could have added a few criticisms to make it more accurate

[@MrSatyre1]

I think it's excitement for novel new construction design and implementation of cutting-edge technology than endorsement.

[@user-ss1ok1nr6l]

I’m sure Jared will give you double whatever you had to pay to watch it. It’s only the very negative people who have problems with the positivity of others.
