The purpose of this page is to explain briefly the method used."
Method: Firstly, taking pictures, we look for the best view, and calculate the best exposure to 360 °. I will take a minimum of 8 photographs to complete a sphere of 360 °x180 °. My camera will be on a special tripod head, allowing me to rotate around the nodal point. This will facilitate the next step: the assembly.
The assembly is done on specialized software that will correct the distortion and adjust points between each photograph. The calibration of the head panoranique is the key, or nearly so. It helps to reduce the time spent correcting some visible joints.
Then a small shift in the software Photoshop for adjusting the density, contrast, saturation, accuracy and size of the document to view.
HDR:High Dynamic Range is the composition of several photographs at different exposures allowing the parties to reveal the darkest and the clearest in the same photograph.
The display is in a viewer ( "player") on your computer.. There are so many as Flash (which I recommend), Quicktime (the most popular), Java and Shockwave. See the different Plug-in:
The printing can be done in very large format through the assembly of several photographs of 8 megapixels which allows files equivalents (on average) to a camera 24 megapixels.
The choice of different objectives or digital body cameras can explose those figures.
