Resumen
- Traditionally, virtual tours that allow the user to visualise an environment have relied exclusively on one of the following methods: 360° photography and 3D restitution using laser scans or photogrammetry. Each of these methods has its own set of advantages and weaknesses. We propose a hybrid approach that offers the best of both worlds, designed specifically for use with head-mounted consumer virtual reality displays. Navigation has been one of the most important aspects of the app’s development. The result is a natural, user-friendly virtual tour with improved navigation and high-quality images and videos. The model has been tested with a group of students with great results.
