One of the coolest interactive overlays you can add to your Adobe Digital Publishing Suite app is the Panorama. The ability to rotate an image to see a 360° view of a particular scene, and to zoom in and out, creates a stunning visual experience.

Having the necessary images is key. Creating a panorama overlay requires a set of six images, which represent the six inner sides of a cube. Even if you have a single full image panorama, it needs to be broken up into six separate cube images. Take advantage of the utilities available to help you create panoramas, such as PTgui, and visit the VRwave website for additional information about shooting panorama images.
