QTVR Overview - Panoramas

OverviewPanosIcon

QTVR Panoramas are in essence the view from a single point in space out to a surrounding environment.

ZoomAngle From the central observation point, called a node, a viewer can look in any direction and may zoom into or out from a particular view by changing the zoom angle of their view.

Panoramas can be created in a number of ways. The most common method is to capture a series of source images around a single point of rotation, then digitize them into source Pict files.

These source Picts are then stitched together using the QTVR tools to create a single panorama Pict image that represents a cylindrical view from the point of rotation. Alternatively, many panoramic cameras create a single panoramic image directly on film, and these may also be converted into a QTVR panorama.
