To wrap this up, I’d like to re-emphasize Sean’s idea of getting a 360° camera. You can turn left, right, even walk out the door by using arrows that appear when moving throughout the store. It’s like viewing the inside of a store in Street View. What’s hard to show in this blog post is how interactive this image is. I also found a Grocery Store Springdale Farm Market who has managed to upload several 360° images of their store. You can also use the compass tool to rotate the view. Click and hold on the photo, or swipe with your finger on a phone to move around and see what is behind you. I personally like location shots with people so the blur face feature takes the leg work out of getting people to sign model release contracts. The likelihood of someone getting in your line of sight in a public space is pretty good. There is an option to blur people’s faces which is nice. I tried #3 by taking a photo sphere of the AWG lobby. Give the app access to the camera on your phone.Using the app, you can shoot a photo sphere 3 ways: To physically go to a location, shoot your own “photo sphere” then upload it to a location in google maps for others to see.
To explore places you haven’t been to by viewing “photo spheres”.The phone app “Google Street View” can be downloaded from the App Store and Google Play. A link to the Google Maps Street View was in the popup window, so here is where my story really begins. So I didn’t look any further.įast forward to yesterday when I was looking at some new features in Google My Business and noticed a section about Google Virtual Tours. I agreed, but then remembered my days of marketing for real estate, and how complex setting up 360° house views were. A few months ago my co-worker Sean and I had a conversation about a 360° camera and how he thought using the camera at store locations could turn out to be a good service for us to offer.
