Project Details
- "Panoscope 360-degrees is a panoramic viewer that displays a full 360-degree cylindrical image from a single video or data channel."
- "A donut-shaped rear projection screen is placed horizontally above a conic reflector. From within the installation, visitors see a virtual cylindrical image obtained by reflection."
- "The installation is designed to simplify both production and presentation of panoramic video programs. It is particularly appropriate for interactive content, where visitors are invited to navigate a space and manipulate elements within it."
