Colorado 360º Spherical Panorama, Inspire 1 Pro, Zenmuse X5

One morning, Thomas O’Brien and I drove to Little Annie’s Basin outside of Aspen, Colorado, to wait for the sun to come up and illuminate the valley. I flew a DJI Inspire 1 Pro and Zenmuze X5 camera w/Olympus 12mm f/2.0 lens out a bit and shot a 48-image, 360º, spherical panorama, which I processed ...

I tried to take a spherical panorama inside 16th Street Station in Oakland, today. The prototype DJI Inspire 1 w/Zenmuse X5′s Visual Positioning System wasn’t working, so I had to pilot manually the whole time in ATTI, which was challenging for aerial panorama movements.  There were a couple major issues with my attemps: 1) I ...

How to mount a Ricoh Theta m15 spherical camera to a DJI Inspire 1. The Ricoh Theta m15 is a $300 360º spherical stills and video camera. It is designed to be fun to use (it reminds me of the memory eraser in Men in Black), and has only 3 buttons: take a picture, turn on/off, and ...

The resolution in video is pretty terrible, but it is good enough to give us an idea ...
