One Shot Virtual Tour and Panoramic Photography Solutions!
At Pixel8 VT (Virtual Tours), as part of
our ongoing desire to be the definitive virtual tour and
multimedia service provider we provide a unique virtual tour
service. The new advances in virtual tour technology, and the advent
of broadband means that we can produce virtual tours in a much shorter
time frame with much better quality than before! We take care of
the 360 degree virtual tour process from concept to completion and
our virtual tours have many applications once the 360 degree photography
has been taken.
We use the latest in 360 degree virtual tour lens technology to shoot
a full 360 degree image in just one shot. Other companies often take
multiple shots and stitch them together to produce virtual tours
which requires more photography time and a greater amount of post-photography
processing which ultimately means more expensive virtual tours and poorer virtual
tour quality. In the worst case you can see where companies have "stitched" the
shots together. Below are some of the uses of 360 degree virtual
tour photography:
 Virtual
Tours For Hotels and Conference Venues
Virtual tours really come in handy when
you want to let potential exhibitors see your venue who may be
rather distant and unable to travel the distance just to have
a look at what you have to offer. One example of this was The
Lowry Theatre and Gallery in Salford Quays, Manchester UK. The
virtual tour 360 degree photography was used in their multimedia
cd rom presenter which was sent out to potential clients to advertise
their facilities. Using our in-house multimedia skills meant
that the tours were also well presented and got rave reviews.

360
Degree one shot photography for print
As you can see from the example above,
360 degree panoramic photography is the only option if you want
to show off your entire venue in one shot. The 360 degree photos
are taken using professional high-resolution cameras giving great
panoramic results which look great in corporate brochures, flyers
and other advertising literature. The camera we use is so good
that the 360 degree panoramas are of quality high enough to be
blown up as posters. One great example was the shot taken on
the centre circle for Bolton Wanderers Football Club which showed
the entire pitch from the centre - all in one panoramic photo!

Tours for Estate Agents and Holiday Venues
The beauty of 360 degree virtual tours is
that they completely immerse the user in the area that the
shot was taken, making it feel like they are actually there. One
major use for this type of virtual tour is for travel agent web sites
where potential customers can see what the resort is like before
booking from the comfort of their home or office and because the
virtual tour is a full 360 degree image there are no blind spots
and the camera truly never lies. The software for viewing the virtual
tours is already available on the majority of operating systems and
warps the moving image to give a great sense of perspective.
