Move over, games. Virtual reality movies or “experiences” could be the hot application of the future. Warner Bros., DC Entertainment, and cloud graphics firm Otoy are showing off a new kind of immersive virtual reality experience today dubbed “holographic video.”

At the Stanford University Workshop on Light Field Imaging, the content creators and Otoy will show off a cool demo using holographic light field rendering technology. What does that mean? You’ll be able to go inside an animated Batcave and explore it from every angle.
