Fisheye 360° Images
Fisheye is a technology allowing creation and viewing of
360-degree panoramic images; it requires either a
dedicated fisheye camera or a regular camera equipped
with a special fisheye lens.
If fisheye cameras are included in the view, you are able to move to a favorite position in the
fisheye image, and then save that position by clicking the Save button under Fisheye PTZ Positions
