Hey guys,

A client recently asked me for one of those Panoramas that you place the camera in a spot, render out the image, and users can move the panorama around, looking up/down/left/right.

I'm pretty sure you render out a panoramic image with 360 degrees of 'H Angle' and 180 of 'V Angle' but where do I go from here?  Do I need to buy software to do this?  I thought it was a feature of Quicktime or Quicktime had something to do with it.  Ideas?

I think you're correct that it's a QT thing, but I suspect you need the pro[paid] version to create with it...

 

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again

You can do the whole process in Vue.  Do the panoramic render. When you save it select Quicktime VR panorama as the format on the drop down of formats on the save dialogue.

A panorama file is usually a .mov extension (other format exist) created by a software able to stich pictures shot from a central point (focal point of the camera- very important point). Various panarama format exist : equirectangular, spherical...

Stitching can be operated by quicktime but only on Mac OS and you have to purchase the version able to do that (I cannot help you as I work with Windows).
For Windows I use several softwares. The best for me is PTGUI (see link). I use also Realviz Stitcher 5. These softwares automate the creation of the panorama IF the pictures are really taken with a good focal point of the camera and sufficient overlapping between pictures to ease the work of the software and have a very smooth blending of pictures. PTGUI seems to work better than stitcher if some shot mistakes have been done.

Regarding the viewer, other viewer exist : Spi-v, Deval ..... see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PanoToolsNG/ for more info

Regarding pano creation in Vue the results until now are not satisfying

Hope it will help you

bye
