New: AI passthrough!

This amazing Deo feature uses the power of AI to turn every VR scene into AR passthrough! Now you can take characters out of VR and have them right there with you - as if they were in the same room.

Notice: AI Passthrough is presently in beta mode, and as such, users may encounter occasional service imperfections. The feature is currently exclusive to the DeoVR app, but it will soon be accessible on both browsers and mobile devices. Your feedback is highly encouraged and appreciated.

Recommended headsets:

Meta Quest 3, and Quest Pro with stereoscopic color passthrough, Pico 4 (monoscopic color passthrough).

Compatible headsets:

Quest 2, Valve Index (monoscopic black and white passthrough).

Passthrough is not compatible yet for Oculus Link cable.

Check out our complete guide to passthrough and join in the discussion at our busy forum.

Shot on: insta360 X5

Step into the raw beauty of New Zealand's iconic west coast with this immersive 8K 360° VR experience of Piha Beach and Lion Rock! Filmed with the Insta360 X5, this video lets you explore the dramatic black sand beaches, towering sea cliffs, and crashing Tasman Sea waves as if you were truly there.

We traveled with Auckland & Beyond Tours, who provided an incredible journey from Auckland to this untamed paradise. Along the way, we experienced:
🌿 Scenic Waitakere Ranges vistas
🛣️ Winding coastal drives through lush rainforest
🦅 Panoramic views from atop Lion Rock (as seniors we did not climb to the top)
🌊 The wild surf that makes Piha a favorite for beach lovers and adventurers

Perfect for VR headsets or YouTube app viewing—just tilt, pan, or drag to explore every direction.

To get the best experience watching our 8K VR 360° videos on VR360TravelVlog:
• Use a VR headset (like Meta Quest) for full immersion. Look around naturally as if you’re really there.
• On mobile, move your phone around or swipe the screen to explore the scene.
• On desktop, click and drag to look around.
• Select 8K resolution in video settings (gear icon) for best quality.
