Open GeoEngTechEL opened 7 years ago

Hi Everyone,

There are so possibility to use the app through an external 360 camera? Like the app of Google Street View?

Hi @DonZaz , There was an experimental implementation working with 2 external 360 cam in the android app, but it was early on, and wasn't exactly the fastest thing because of the image transmission over wifi, so it didn't get into the app. Recently there was added support on the front end to check out 360 pictures, but it was taken out of the app.

So right now there is no way to record with external 360 cameras. We might add support for theta, theta s and all the newer open spherical camera API compatible cameras but not sure when.

Dear kalmanbencze,

Would be very useful reinstate the option to add at the least one camera 360
