360 Photos Support?

[rodr]

With my Android camera app there's an option to take a picture as a "photosphere". This is a fully panoramic picture of basically everything you can see when standing in a particular spot. There are also specialized cameras for this.

I worked out a way to support these in phpBB and surely something very similar could be done for vBulletin as a cool BARF feature. Here is a write-up including a sample picture.

Love the picture, did you have to spin around to take it?

Thanks Bill! Yes, the camera app guides you in taking a bunch of pics that it then stitches together to make one image.

IMO it's reasonable to require external hosting, if that's what you mean.

I’ll pass this on Rod.

Really cool.

I am not confident though. We have had the new VB package for 6 month plus and still not there.

Chris if you are a high end code hacker mofo let me know.
Maybe shit would be more to your liking
