General Info/Features

SwiftVR is quite capable out of the box.  In the past I had played around with other people's attempts at VR and they always cut out the hard bits... because they were hard.  I wanted more!

What I wanted was arbitrary hotspots to other panoramas (so you can "walk" through a scene), a compass, the ability to zoom in/out, a map, info markers that can can play video or audio, a selection of exit markers that point the way to new locations... I wanted it all.

So... I have implemented all those features into SwiftVR.  Here are the features in list form for easier reference:

• zoom in/out functionality (mousewheel supported)
• Head Up Display for direction info
• hotspots for loading new panorama viewpoints
• direction maintained correctly between viewpoint load-ups
• can dynamically communicate directly with an external map
• info markers for arbitrary audio/video playback
• 360 degree interactive panorama rotation
