Virtual Yosemite is a large VR Tour project consisting of over 400 360-degree panoramic images by photogrpaher, Scott Highton.

Dobiison VR is a company from Ghana that creates beautiful interactive virtual tours and experiences. We’re delighted to showcase their work here and hope to spark some inspiration in you.

The folk at 360imagery are masters at their craft and create custom tours for all sorts of clients. Their portfolio is extensive; from hotels to health clubs to auto interiors. We’ve found a few projects we’d like to share with you.

Featuring the work of Boštjan Burger who is a prolific 360 panorama photographer known for his captures of the beautiful country, Slovenia.

Today, we’d like to share this project from Dieter Lukas of Panobilder.de, that was created for their client, L’adresse 37. At first glance it appears to be a basic tour. But, as you explore the spaces you discover beauty in simplicity and subtle creativity. Before reading on, check out the project. I find the skin design...

Here’s a great project that is appearing a bit late to the blog (sorry, Christian!). Apple’s iBooks is a great way to create, publish and distribute a gallery or VR tour (offline!). This is what Christian Kleiman has done with his documentation of the Volvo Ocean Race (a nine month sailing race). These stills don’t do Christian’s...

Happy December! We are happy to start this month by featuring an impressive virtual tour built by Lauri Veerde for Tallinn University in Estonia. Once you step inside you are greeted with a beautiful aerial shot of the campus. The interface (skin) is minimal and the custom hotspots are brilliant. Hovering over them will fill the hotspot...

Remember BRIGHT? We featured their work a few years ago for their Pano2VR projects. Now, we are focusing on their work done with Object2VR. In their latest project, they created a unique training experience for airBaltic. Using Object2VR, they created an object movie of an airBaltic Boeing 737. You can see how they did that with...

It has been way too long since our last “in the Wild” post! So, without further ado, we’d like to introduce you to this project by Harald Joergens. Harald created a virtual tour of the President narrow steamboat that was used to deliver goods on the canals between central England and London in the beginning of the...

For this “in the wild” post we have aerials! We’d like to highlight the projects created by Aerial Sphere. These guys are taking high altitude panoramas the old fashioned way…with helicopters. Aerial Sphere is based in Phoenix, Arizona, which by default, provides them with plenty of photographic inspiration. One project is a tour of the surrounding airports. An...

Today we present to you panoramas from the folk at tokyomagic. The initial panorama that caught our eye was the The Kings Theatre. Not only are the images in the tour wonderful, but the matching skin and clean design are superb. Also, if you’ve ever been curious about what a theater looks like behind the...

Greetings from sunny Vienna! It’s been awhile since our last …in the Wild post. We’ve been so busy working on new features and fixing bugs that time has just flown by! Today, I’d like to share Ivan Tsyrkunovich’s project that features a dance club (or discotheque, depending what part of the world you come from). If Google...
