To see credits, use your mouse to grab the image and look down by putting your mouse over the image, click hold and move your mouse up. I have worked out a strategy for overlaying this credit circle at bottom of the 360 degree panorama.

Unlike desktop and laptop computers, smartphone peripherals are appearing that are sometimes just as expensive and sometimes bigger than the smartphone. Here are two types, one a game controller, the other a camera. Click on image to learn more
Last Sunday, I brought my Ricoh Theta camera to church. Here are some of the photos I took. I was a little disappointed in the quality of the pictures. On a brighter day, I think the pictures could be better -- although interior pictures aren't the best with this camera. I have another idea about how to do similar pictures of the church interior.

One of the general issues as we design the Lexington Community Center is how to furnish the building so that we preserve the maximum ability to reuse spaces throughout the day for different types of activities. Here is an entry in that category for pool tables. The price at Amazon looks outrageous, but the idea is a good one. I also wonder if this is a regulation sized pool table? I am reminded of a card table I saw in President Truman's Little White House retreat in Key West Florida. Apparently Bess Truman didn't like the image of the President playing cards, so she insisted that the table stay in its closed configuration when he wasn't playing cards.
Yesterday, the Committee met for the first time in the building at 39 Marrett Rd. To mark the occassion, I took this photograph with my Ricoh Theta camera. This Photo Sphere is the result of one button click with no subsequent processing. Improvements in the exposure, lighting and color balance could be achieved by use of standard photo processing tools. The output of the camera is a standard JPEG. The auto rotating and explorable image is added by software provided by Ricoh.

There are at least four major websites that can be used to host 360 degree panoramas (aka, PhotoSpheres): Ricoh Theta, Microsoft PhotoSynth, Google Views, and 360 Cities. Here is a comparison of how Photo Spheres appear wheb embedded from these websites. Ricoh Theta Publishing to the Ricoh Theta website is built into the smartphone apps≥ Unfortunately I can't find a recipe for publishing 360 degree panoramas produced by methods other than the Theta to the Theta website.

This is the first shot I took with my new Ricoh Theta 360°. It can take a photo like this with one shutter click. These photos can be embedded in web pages. Use your mouse to move around the image. Post from RICOH THETA. - Spherical Image - RICOH THETA |
