I do have some of them published on my personal and business websites. My intention has always been to create a site to showcase all of my work and maybe even the work of others. Being a web designer I enjoy the technical aspects of stitching the photos and then presenting them on the web as single panoramas or in tours that link 360 images together. There are also stand alone applications available for viewing panoramas on your local computer. Apple Quick Time movies was an earlier method for viewing the spherical panoramas. Currently the most popular and practical method for presenting 360 panorama images is through a Adobe Flash interface in a web browser. There are a number of tools and techniques available to stitch and view panoramas. I can now take a complete pano in 8 shots (6 around, one up and one down). I've since moved up to professional gear including a digital SLR, Fish-eye lens, specialized tripod and pano head. Most panos I took would need 40-50 photos to ensure I captured the complete 360 sphere. I started with just a regular camera and tripod and found it very difficult and time consuming to stitch the photos together into a 360 spherical panorama. The photos are better at eye level, so set THETA on a tripod or hold a monopod in your hand and shoot at about eye height.I have been taking panorama photographs for several years now. Take pictures of the places you want to upload to Street View at intervals of about 3 meters. When you turn on THETA’s Wi-Fi, it will appear in the Wi-Fi list on your smartphone. When you connect THETA to your smartphone via Wi-Fi, the Street View app will recognize that THETA is connected and will automatically display photos taken with THETA.

You too can contribute 360 photos to Street View! Why not give it a try? It’s exciting to see 360-degree photos you took using THETA in Google Maps Street View! There are still many roads that cannot be seen on Street View, such as small paths and side roads that Google cars cannot enter. However, with a THETA 360 degree camera, you can easily participate in making Street View images.
