Over the summer I was able to partake in my first real experience with VR. Prior to the summer, my interest in the VR world was sparked when Facebook introduced Facebook 360. This is where I was first exposed to this world but it wasn’t until the summer when I realized VR is so much more than just a 360 video. During our class, I started out at the Google Cardboard station. This is definitely the most basic, bare bones type of VR you can get your hands on. It...
This project is the culmination of a semester’s worth of work. I do not mean that I worked on it all semester. What I mean is, after six weeks of 360 shoots, VR demos, and messing around on the bleeding edge of the field with both software and hardware, I knew what I could do with the resources available to me.

I googled the problem and found that you can use a template panorama to help Autopano figure out where each video should go. Basically, you take an existing 360 video project (the file from...
