360° Virtual Reality panoramas, also called QTVR panoramas, spherical panoramas, virtual tours and virtual visits, allow the viewer a virtual presence at any remote location and are fully interactive and immersive 360° rotational photographic views of that site. Multiple 360° VR views can be linked together to form a Virtual Tour, and with the addition of multinode maps and directional sound they can give the viewer an enhanced immersive experience.

Virtual Tours can be used for a variety of purposes including architectural projects, museums, heritage sites, hotels, luxury yachts, scenic travel tours and educational /training purposes, in fact the list is endless.

360° Virtual Reality panoramas can be viewed using either the QuickTime plug-in or Java viewers and incorporated into both website and CD-ROM projects using Flash, Shockwave, HTML or other packages.

To view any 360° QuickTime panorama, the QuickTime plug-in has to be installed in the users browser. This is freely available and easily downloaded from the Apple website by clicking on the 'Get QuickTime' button below.
