Virtual Reality Panorama is an interactive way to observe photos or pictures in a wide angle panorama. It is a full 360 degree seamless photo of an object that tells the whole surroundings in a single frame. It is like when we stand at a certain spot and move our body in a full circle to see the whole panorama.

The result of VR panorama is a multimedia preview that can be contained in website, interactive CD, tablet or a touch screen terminal. This preview will allow audience to grasp the actual and reality of the object, complete in 360 degree perspective, with no biases or artificial effect. That is because this is a photo, not an animation. This application are also referred as a virtual tour.
