Panoramic 360 Video Example: Naples Video

Bart Wilson is back with a brand new spin on 360 tours... VIDEO 360 virtual tours. It's been shown off at Inman Connect and the REALTOR Expo and it's a fraction of the cost of proprietary systems like Immersive Media's Dodeca 2360 camera and vehicle mount kit (over $100,000). Bart shows you how to use your Nikon D90 or Canon 2Ti and a Sigma 50mm lens to get real WOW factor out of creating your own 360 video virtual tours of neighborhoods, hotels, restaurants or a drive through Naples Italy on a motorcycle. The 360 Video Tour Kit is new and comes with everything you need to start making your own 360 video tours. A Macintosh is required for the authoring, but playback can be on either Mac or PC. Starter kits are just $1,795 for a limited time (Normally $1,949) and come complete with Voyager's legendary step by step VIP training and priority technical support.

The Immersive Media system is actually just over $30,000 for their high end system with 11 lenses (plus costs for a simple rack and GPS system). This system doesn't have the distortion and other issues with mirror pano systems. It's really apples and oranges. The Immersive system -- when used for location-based recording, embeds the precise lat/long location into the video, along with pitch/yaw/roll info. The pano is just 'look here' fun. Immersive also has complete software apps approach.

@gumbogumbo1 It was bound to happen sooner or later. They've changed their prices. But now the company has stopped production and sales of this unit.

I'm curious as to why this has so little comments. I for one think it would be incredibly interesting if a full feature movie was made using this technology. Granted it wouldn't be practical for all movies, but it would be very cool to be able to feel completely immersed in a scene, being able to look all around a room while someone has a conversation. Maybe even spot little details in a detective movie perhaps.
