Abstract

A method for the production of immersive virtual reality experiences designed for viewing in virtual reality head-mounted displays (HMD). This unique layered panorama process is a cubic or spherical mapped content method for presentation of pre-rendered images viewed from a fixed point of view in a head mounted display for virtual reality (VR) applications, a method that by mapping/layering all visual elements onto a mono or stereoscopic spherical or cubic panorama surface creates a seamless visual integration.
