360 picture in a browser

[redheart]

A quick question

 

I have taken a 360 photo with a Samsung Gear 360.

 

Can I upload this so that people can scroll up and down and around in their browser?

I'm starting to doubt that you can.

Facebook have a 360 photo feature.

 

Not sure if they're compatible with the output from your phone, but worth a try.

This is by far the easiest place to post, and the best place to view, 360 photos and videos. You just upload an image as normal, and Facebook processes it to look correct in your feed. You can see some examples here (you don't have to be part of Facebook to view the photos).

 

The cool part is when people look at your photos. Most mid- and high-end phones will let you move the phone itself to view your photo sphere. Tilt the phone up, the view looks up. Turn around, and see what was behind the camera. Everyone I’ve shown this to has their mind blown. It’s a fantastic effect.

 

If someone has an older phone, or is viewing on the computer, they can use their finger or mouse to scan the image (some really old or budget phones won’t work at all, however).
