As
part of a BECTa Geography project BASS
and EdIT have joined forces to
investigate how schools might create
their own 360-degree panoramic 'virtual
reality' photo-movies for the web -
simply and inexpensively.
The
panoramas of Birmingham accessible from
this page were produced using an
ordinary hand-held camera and a
medium-range Pentium computer.
This site compares two computer programs
downloaded from the web: QuickStitch
360 (£45) and PixMaker
Lite (free). As the
panoramas are shown side by side on each
page, you should expect some delay while
both systems are loaded.
