There are many types of Panoramic imagery but only two will be demonstrated within my web site. The first is for mural prints. The shooting for this photograph requires a specialized panoramic head which mounts a high end digital camera over the nodal point of a lens. A series of individual photos are taken as the camera rotates as much as 360°. After the shoot high end stitching software is used to mend the seporate photos into a single image. The final image can result with a file over 15,000 pixels wide.
The second type of panoramic demonstrated is the 360° web navigation node. I use a special mirror lens that shoots a single shot complete 360° photograph or node. By shooting several of these nodes I can create navigation hot spots so web users can navigate around real estate, company grounds, a convention center, park, town or any other location needed to help portray certain area's attributes. The final player can have a single use or many multimedia features applied as the bottom example demonstrates. |
