I have stitched together a serious of images, creating a 360degree panorama. Is it possible to create a flash virtual tour from this?

If so, any assistance will be appreciated!

Thanks in anticipation

Can be done in flash, but not easily.

Take a look at Apples quicktime VTR, made especially for this.

Until CoffeeCup comes up with a program of their own, I recently bought a little inexpensive program from www.change7.com which produces simple virtual tours using panoramic images. It is not as complete as I would like, but is giving me a chance to experiment ideas for the time being.

Mike,
Absolutely, thanks.
I shall have to be careful otherwise I can see me following that one up passionately!
I have bookmarked the site as there seems to be a lot of useful information, and access to various hardware/software sites which could be interesting.

I'd prefer flash or something similar. Most computer users don't trust executable files sent to them, so the Change7 software is not really an option. Quicktime VTR is nice, but I understand it is not used as widely as flash...

Have to admit to not having realised that there was an executable file to download until it was too late. So this is definitely not my definitive choice, but it has given me an opportunity to play around with the idea for now, and has kept me from considering too seriously the more costly options available!!
If only I could buy the pano head..........probably drown my little digital camera............but then I could save up for the big stuff..............naaaaaaaa. Better stop here!

p.s. Thanks again Mike for sending me in the right direction......only bookmarked it all for now, but who knows!

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
