Here is another virtual tour from this house, featuring the large master bathroom. This one is a single exposure, but I took a second exposure that I could use to gain some more light inside the master bedroom.

Master Bathroom Virtual Tour
Tuesday, March 18th, 2008Kitchen Virtual Tour : Blended Exposures
Sunday, March 16th, 2008After the conservatory, I moved my setup into the kitchen to take a virtual tour in there. In the photo in the last entry, you can see the kitchen area underneath the arches in the left-hand side. To properly expose the inside of the house, I had to increase the exposure enough to wash out the conservatory. To combat this, I took two exposures in each position, stitched them both seperately, and blended the equirectangular panoramas. I was able to figure out a way to stitch two identical (or near identical) panoramas with two different sets of photos. According to theory, the two sets of photos are of the same place taken at the same time without the camera moving, but without Hugin stitching both exactly the same, trying to blend the two exposures would be impossible. Here is my final result:
“Virtual” Learning Curve – Figuring out QTVR Panoramas
Friday, February 22nd, 2008The past few days I have been stitching and re-stitching a 360 by 180 degree panorama I shot in my living room. I have not had the opportunity to take any in other people’s houses, so I have to practice with my own. The learning curve of Hugin (the open source panorama creator I use) is pretty steep, but I am figuring out the nuances of the program and what I have to do to make it stitch efficiently. Hopefully in a few weeks I will have the whole process down well enough to write an article on it. If that happens, you will be the first to know! Check back in the near future for new photos and panoramas.
