The +Ford Motor Company stand at the Detroit Auto Show
This photosphere had some stitching issues for some reason, probably because there were so many people moving around. I tried three times and this was the best one. #FordNAIAS

My wife was just trying one of these earlier. She thinks that it doesn't handle stitching things together that are up close as well as it does when things are further away.
Up close items give most panoramas issues, but this space was larger than other places I've tried photospheres and they worked better. However, they were also static scenes. I think when there are moving people in adjoining images, the stitching algorithm gets confused.
Yeah, I made the mistake of moving when she was shooting one earlier and it ended up looking like I was chopped in half.
Wow, I had no idea there was a panoramafunction in G+. Awesome!
+Wouter Flikweert photosphere's are a new capability of the camera app in +Android 4.2. Currently they are only playable in G+ and picasa.
That's about the tightest dead space at the top and bottom of any photosphere I've seen. Nice job, Sam.
