  • a more extreme fisheye projection, it allowes much larger viewing angles
  • it allowes very interessting views likes the Little Planet View
  • it can be activated by enabling the view.stereographic parameter, and setting the view.fisheye parameter to “1.0″

  • the strongness of this Projection is also controlled with the view.fisheye and view.fisheyefovlink parameters

New 360cities Site

No Comments Posted in: GoogleMaps, KRpano, Showcase |

360 cities have done some great Google mashup work with their new browser using KRpano, which has the useful addition of multi-resolution panoramas. This feature is very useful when sites feature a small pano preview then can automatically load higher resolutions when the viewer goes fullscreen.

All we need now is a great GUI.

Krabat – upcoming German fantasy film.

This new site is the essence of what I am striving to showcase here on Flash360.net – a place where panoramas are used as a tool to add interactivity into otherwise “normal” websites.

This site was created by www.onlinemarketingagency using krpano

“It takes you fullscreen (click on “VOLLBILD”) into the main set of the movie where all flash-content is placed on hotspots. It even features a riddle/search game to unlock a room with bonus-material (by finding 5 parts of a magic scroll). Besides navigating within the panorama the user may also use a conventional flash-menu. All panoramas were done in multi-resolution mainly to reduce loading-time. Even if the source photos we have been provided with have been quite low-res (just compressed jpg´s with no floors/ceilings photographed so that the resulting stitches could only become 14000 px wide), I think it´s a nice example of integrating panoramas within a moviesite.”
I hope to showcase more of their work soon :)

If this great preview of the new 360cities interactive panoramas is anything to go by then we are looking at a very user friendly experience. The use of Googlemaps flash API compliments the tour greatly. Maps embedded within a tour rather than visa versa will give the panoramas the credit they deserve. It uses the new kid on the Flash Pano block , KRPano. Which seems to be the best performing FlashVR player yet – certainly in performance anyway and the interactive elements certainly seem to be at least on a par to Flashpanoramas.
