Samples with Rotatable Images (100)

These are elements that have QuickTimeVR 3D and JavaScript stereoscopic rotatable images associated with one or more samples. You can download the latest version of QuickTime for Macintosh or Windows from http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download. To make these files I use my "VR Micro Studio", which consists of an up-side-down panorama head, a three-axis adjustable tripod mount, and a 1000W halogen light. The camera is covered with tinfoil to keep it from burning up under the hot light.

Click any element tile below to get the full entry for that element, or click on the sample picture to go directly to the description of that sample.
