360 test 35ft up

I was thinking last night and thought it may be possible to make a 360 with a virtual tour effect. I got up this morning, launch and stitched 8 photo to have the test result.

Looks good.

How did you turn the pics into a 360 vid?

Hi there... I offered the same to Gunter the other week... Send me a copy of your raw files and I'll stitch them without the joins! ;-) You'd find it works very well...

Or if you want, the best stitching software IS PTGui, and spherical movie making is Pano2VR...

You are working in an area that I am most interested in following. I do many spherical panoramas, it's a part of my living.

Best Hugh

you could also try hugin, which is another open source app. i've been using since the dimise of ptmac.

HERE are a few examples of my pano work, just need to get the camera into the air now.

I use Microsoft ICE, over the years I have been involved in stitching images for over 10 years. If ICE does not work I will try doing the images in a combinations where if a 360 take 8 images. Then I would stitch 4 batches of 2 images, then take the 4 images and then stitch them all together. If that does not work then I may jump into Photoshop and use their photo merge script.
