EDIT 2015/09/06): YOU ONLY NEED TO TAKE PANORAMA OR SPHERE PICS WITH GOOGLE CAMERA APP! NO NEED TO CONVERT WITH PANO2VR ANYMORE!
- If you happen to own an Android based mobile phone then download Google Camera app. It's available in Google Play store and it's free. In Nexus-phone Google Camera might already be there.
- Find a place where it's possible to turn around 360 degrees and you want shoot your panorama pic. I chose the option "Panorama" but I guess "Photo Sphere" is also possible (which I haven't tested it yet!).
- Taking panorama pics is easy when you know how to do it ;D.
- Move your phone slowly from one "ball" to another. Those "balls" appear on the screen of your mobile phone.
- When done a panorama pic is generated and saved.
- Copy your newly made panorama pic from your phone to your computer. My pic was ~ 5 MB.
- Download and install an app called PANO2VR. It's available for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. In addition it's free for testing. I chose the latest beta version.
- Tap Input and find your panorama pic. Then choose Convert Input.
- Choose TIFF as output (=Format) and "Convert".
- The resulted files are big. My TIFF was ~ 450 MB.
- Install Cardboard app from Google Play store to your mobile phone.
- Copy TIFF to your Android phone.
- Find a folder called "Cardboard".
- That's the place for the TIFFs,
- Make sure you don't run out of free space in your phone! Delete TIFFs you don't need anymore!
- In Cardboard app choose "Cardboard Demos" and then "Photosphere". Your TIFF should show up.
- Place your phone inside the cardboard glasses and enjoy.
Look for Panorama in your
Google Camera app.
Open your panorama pic in PANO2VR (Input)
and then start to convert your pic (Convert input).
Choose TIFF and Convert.
Choose Cardboard Demos.
Choose Photo Sphere.
Enjoy!
