Welcome to the commercial version of our exclusive 360HDTour. This sample features additional interactive navigational features that that allow the viewer to walk through and experience a “virtual” walk through the grounds of a luxury Hotel on Maui.

About the tour

This tour features 360 x 180 spherical HI DEFINITION panoramic scenes that allow the viewer to immerse themselves in the environment. We recommend selecting the FULL SCREEN option for the ultimate experience.

Like all of our other 360HDTours for residential real estate, you click and drag on the image to view up and down and all around the scene. In this sample, we added a pop-up map allowing for “birds eye” navigation and “walk-through” for additional interactivity.

We used the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Kapalua for the basis of our sample tour. We substituted the LOBBY scene for scene taken at the Lobby at Westin Maui. We wanted to demonstrate our High Dynamic Range (HDR) capabilities in this sample and the Lobby at the Westin represented a greater photographic challenge.

About HDR

The lighting within the Westin’s lobby is an example of extreme contrast situation where you transition from the dimly lit customer service desks to the extremely bright sunlit waterfall. We started by shooting dozens of still photographs at various exposures and later blending the exposures in a single High Dynamic Range photograph.

Equipment used in this sample.

Canon EOS 5DMK2 24 mega-pixel digital SLR, Canon EF 15mm 2.8 Fisheye Lens, Gitzo Tall Tripod and Real Right Stuff Ultimate-Pro Omni-Pivot QVTR package.
