Product Introduction

1. The Spatial Video Editor is an on-device tool within the Spatial Media Toolkit that enables users to create, edit, and export spatial videos or photo slideshows with background music. It supports direct integration with 2D-to-3D conversion technology, allowing seamless transformation of traditional media into immersive spatial formats. All processing occurs locally on the user’s device, ensuring privacy and eliminating cloud dependencies.
2. The core value lies in its ability to democratize spatial storytelling by combining intuitive editing tools with advanced AI-powered 3D conversion. It bridges the gap between 2D legacy content and modern spatial formats, enabling users to repurpose existing media into immersive experiences. The tool prioritizes privacy and cross-platform compatibility, making it suitable for both personal and professional use cases.

Main Features

1. Users can import spatial photos and videos from their library, trim clips, rearrange sequences, and add custom background music before exporting in spatial-compatible formats. The editor provides real-time stereo spatial previews within the app, ensuring accurate visualization of depth and immersion.
2. Direct integration with the app’s 2D-to-3D conversion engine allows batch processing of legacy 2D videos or photos into spatial formats, which can be added to the editor timeline in one tap. This feature supports near real-time conversion for videos and high-fidelity AI upscaling for photos.
3. Companion iOS and Mac apps enable cross-device workflows, allowing users to start editing on a mobile device and continue on a desktop. The tool also supports exporting to VR headsets like Meta Quest and converting side-by-side VR formats to Apple Spatial Video standards.

Problems Solved

1. The product addresses the complexity of creating spatial content from scratch or repurposing existing 2D media, which traditionally requires specialized software and technical expertise. It eliminates the need for cloud-based processing, resolving privacy concerns for sensitive personal or professional content.
2. Target users include casual creators seeking to enhance vacation videos or family slideshows, professionals transitioning legacy media libraries to spatial formats, and VR enthusiasts sharing content across mixed-reality platforms.
3. Typical scenarios include converting a decade-old 2D wedding video into a spatial experience, compiling 360-degree travel clips into a narrative with music, or preparing real estate walkthroughs for VR headset presentations.

Unique Advantages

1. Unlike cloud-dependent editors, this tool processes all data locally using on-device neural engines, ensuring zero data leakage and compliance with strict privacy regulations. It supports Apple’s Spatial Video standard natively while maintaining compatibility with third-party VR ecosystems.
2. The patented AI model enables near real-time 2D-to-3D video conversion at 30 FPS, outperforming most competitors requiring server-side rendering. Batch processing allows simultaneous conversion of hundreds of files with adjustable depth parameters.
3. Competitive advantages include a unified ecosystem spanning iOS, macOS, and Vision Pro devices, frame-perfect synchronization for multi-track spatial audio, and automatic metadata optimization for platform-specific exports like Instagram 3D or Vision Pro Spatial Gallery.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can I convert old 2D videos shot on non-Apple devices? Yes, the editor accepts any 2D video format (MP4, MOV, AVI) and applies depth reconstruction using on-device AI, regardless of the original capture device.
2. How does on-device processing protect my privacy? All media analysis, conversion, and editing occur locally without uploading data to servers, with encrypted temporary files deleted immediately after export.
3. What VR headsets are supported for exports? The tool exports spatial videos in Apple Vision Pro format, Meta Quest-compatible side-by-side 3D, and YouTube VR-ready 180°/360° projections.
4. Does real-time 3D conversion work during editing? Yes, the Spatial Gallery preview renders 2D-to-3D conversions in real time, allowing instant adjustments to depth intensity and perspective before finalizing the timeline.
5. Can I edit spatial videos captured on iPhone 15 Pro? Yes, the editor natively supports Apple’s MV-HEVC spatial video format, enabling direct trimming, audio mixing, and metadata preservation during exports.
