The Panorama Viewer

Panoramic images are normally viewed through classic scrolling or, on iPads and other touch screens, using a swiping movement. Inspired by the idea of an augmented reality view of the current environment, the Netural Lab team has selected another option. The compass and gyroscopic angle identification system in the iPad are used for this special effect. The tablet ‘knows’ in which direction it is pointing. This offers insight into an alternative reality – a life-like view of the all-round image with no navigational elements. Observers simply move the screen in their hand and the displayed section of the image changes.
