Flash has come a long way in the past few years, and here’s something to prove that. I’ve just completed a quick example of a full 360 degree panorama that works entirely in Flash with no need for any other plugins.

The load time is minimal and it runs very smoothly. It’s possible to load real 3D models as well and I can’t wait to play around with that more. Eventually I want to expand this into a fully interactive 3D environment. It was made possible by a new 3D API called Papervision3D which was just released as a public beta this week. The possibilities are endless and I’m very excited about working with it more. Using the API as a core opens up a range of programming possibilities, including interactive objects, video and sound integration, and much more. Check back often to see my new experiments as they’re developed.
As you can probably tell there is great commercial potential for this as well and I’m open to entertain any ideas that you may have. With the possibility of more interaction, I can see this taking panoramas in the real estate and tour industry to a new level. Stay tuned…
