The Panorama Tour, a pioneering project, leveraged virtual reality technology when spherical cameras were still uncommon in 2013. Visitors could immerse themselves in a 360° interactive view of various school facilities, all at their fingertips.
Why settle for a mundane video tour?
Videos merely deliver information; they lack engagement. My innovative approach? I harnessed the motion sensors found in most smart devices to revolutionize how we explore spaces. Users could freely explore the venues by combining these sensors with panoramic views. It was a novel and challenging method under limited resources, but the results were worth the effort.
On New Comers Day, our website garnered over 300 views. Visitors were amazed by the behind-the-scenes magic, all carried out by a student. They particularly enjoyed using the motion-sensing feature to navigate the campus. The Panorama Tour not only showcased our school facilities but also unveiled the daring minds of the students.
