Dear commoners
We see an increasing number of spherical panoramics on commons [1],
which makes me happy. Those pictures are best viewed in a panoramic viewer.
Unfortunately when I compare our panoramic viewer [2] with the one i.e.
on 360cities [3] - they use krpano [4] - I conclude:
-Our Java system requires a faster computer than the Flash player
resulting in slow loading or errors.
-Our system is not able to progressively display the current view. That
means it takes a longer time until you can start browsing.
-The User Interface looks rather spartanic compared to the smooth one of
krpano.
So the question is why not switch to a better system if it's available?
After a quick look I got the impression that krpano is currently state
of the art but you may know another program.
I'm interested to hear your opinions.
Regards
Robin
