360 Camera
360 camera's are becoming cheaper, more compact and mobile with more sophisticated resolution. The 360 camera takes images and video that can be edited and provide different angles and perspectives. Once video has been captured using a 360 camera, export the video using an exporter application to create a 360 'stitched' view. This is the sequence to producing virtual reality viewing, outlined below.
