Abstract
In this poster, we present a system for sharing immersive 360 images for live tours. While the sharing of prerecorded 360 video and images is becoming commonplace, there have been fewer systems presented that support live-sharing of 360 images. We customised a video conferencing platform to enable dozens of people to see the same 360 content together while having a live call. We describe our system and pilot user study results from using it for a virtual guided tour. Compared to sharing non 360 images on Zoom, our system was felt to be more immersive, enjoyable, and easy to use.
