360 Degree VR's
"In addition to panoramic stills photography, I also create interactive 360 virtual tours. These 360s enable the viewer to step inside an image, viewing a full 360° around the scene. I have captured a wide variety of interactive panoramas over the years – from city skylines to desert landscapes, from festivals to fashion, from architecture to alternative energy."

This is one of Will Pearson's gigapixel panoramas. Like with the previous image he has managed to seamlessly join the images together, which is good considering there is a lot of lines from the buildings and the bridges. The image below is one section of the picture that has been zoomed in slightly.

| The Montgomerie Golf Club Dubai 360 Panorama http://www.willpearson.co.uk/virtual_tours/montgomerie-golf-club/ This is one example of Will Pearson's work. I picked this image as I felt it fitted more with the park idea that I had in mind for my own panoramic picture. The stitching is seamless and he has managed to blend the images in well, especially with the grass and trees which is one of the hardest things to blend together. When looking at this picture on his website, as well as seeing the picture in a 360 degree format you are also able to zoom right in to it, this gives you the opportunity to see small bits of details that you would perhaps not be able to view on a normal picture. Gigapixel Panoramas "A gigapixel image is a digital image bitmap composed of one billion (109) pixels (picture elements), 1000 times the information captured by a 1 megapixel digital camera. Current technology for creating such very high-resolution images usually involves either making mosaics of a large number of high-resolution digital photographs or using a film negative as large as 12" × 9" (30 cm × 23 cm) up to 18" × 9" (46 cm × 23 cm), which is then scanned with a high-end large-format film scanner with at least 3000 dpi resolution." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigapixel_image In my own words This is a technique that Will Pearson uses on some of this panoramic pictures. If you take a gigapixel panorama then you are able to zoom right in to the image and not lose any of the detail this is because the image is made up of one billion pixels. "These high definition and gigapixel panoramas allow the viewer to zoom in to see the mega high resolution panoramic images created by Will Pearson. These images can be reproduced at high quality, even when at large sizes, making them ideal for billboards, large-scale prints and even building wraps." |
