360 Photo Camera Matching

[danchomiak]

Hi there,

 

My company is experimenting with trying to deliver a VR experience to our clients.

 

Basically we are thinking along the lines of taking a 360 camera (something like this: https://theta360.com/en/about/theta/s.html) and snapping the 360 photo. The site is already under construction and we want to photograph the site and drop in our finished 3D model into the 360 photo. We are using 3ds 2015 and VRAY 3.3.

 

I know camera matching a traditional photo has its challenges, anyone have any insight into camera matching a 360 photo? I imagine the curvature of the Earth and atmospheric distortion would come into play.

 

Any feedback would be a great help!!
