Panorama player comparisons - large - VRLight

What panorama players are available? How does the choice of player affect the way a panorama performs? Is the image rendered differently? How long does it take to load? These examples show over a dozen different panorama players, each using basic settings and copies of the same source images, to help find answers to questions such as these.

Notes: VRlight uses Microsoft's Silverlight web development environment. Customising is done by editing an XML file. It uses equirectangular images in JPEG and has four display modes: Vertical stacked images, Horizontal stacked images, Dropdown box with tour names, and Interactive map.

First launched: August 2009
Based on: Microsoft Silverlight
Version used here: 1.0
