@Tosolini

I wish you could have been there to provide your color commentary and insightful analysis of the announcements. 2:04 is pretty geeky.

I will miss you at IVRPA in Vienna next week. We're headed to a family wedding instead.

@Metroplex360

I did 360º video interviews with the Insta360 Air attached to my Samsung Galaxy S6. This version of the camera is not Google Street View Ready (at the very least, because it is 3K). I do not know if a firmware can make it 4K).

Instal360 announced that their cameras will all be Google Street View Ready. I do not know if this requires a hardware change.

While I could have uploaded the 360º videos to YouTube directly from the Insta360 to YouTube, I prefer Vimeo. I uploaded some of the videos from my hotel and the rest when I got back to Atlanta (because the hotel Wi-Fi was slow.

I could imagine that Insta360 will support Vimeo 360 video (which was announced 10 March 2017.)
