Abstract
Spherical and cubic panoramas only differ in the type of projection used. As far as the actual photography is concerned, the same technique can be applied. Compared to their cylindrical counterpart, spherical and cubic panoramas have an extended vertical angle of view. Vertical travel is not limited here, which makes it possible to view the ground as well as the sky of a scene. When the ground is filmed, parts of the tripod usually are captured as well. If the scene is to be realistically depicted, however, these areas should be edited out.
