Virtual Tours on mobile devices
Date: February 15, 2011
36one offers now virtual tours on Iphone, Ipad and any devices that support HTML5/CSS3D, such as Android.
Features
On mobile devices, supporting HTML5/CSS3D technology, several options are available:
- hotspots
- labels (text)
- buttons
- floorplans
- navigation (buttons and images)
Transparent
It is completely transparent for the end user, the virtual tour will be displayed in the best technology for the host device. All the images are resized and ensure that they fit the device’s memory capacity.
Usability
Note that despite all these options are available, from an end user perspective, some of them proved to be unusable on small devices, such as phones. It is possible to produce different version of the same virtual tour, depending on the device screen capabilities, thus ensuring the best user experience.
Note for Android devices: The CSS 3D transforms support in the Android system browsers is unreliable and unpredictable at the moment (october 2012). Even with the same Android version there can be rendering differences between different Android devices.
