That's really neat stuff. I'm not sure of a market for it. I was thinking perhaps realty for higher end homes. Take a day or two and make a really detailed virtual tour of the home. Probably not worth it for cheap sales, as I'm sure it's labor intensive work making it rather costly.

Woah i'm dizzy ! There has to be a market for this. Real estate is a great idea I know there are virtual walkthrus already for some homes. Also I would think just about anywhere that people might want to go vacationing at or even like museums or historic sites. Making money shouldn't be too hard if he has the ability to host and put up various sites in this pro format. Charge like $5 per "tour" & kick .50 cents to the museum or theme park or whatever and keep the rest for expenses and profit.

Once he built up enough tours he could charge like $25 for a year membership too all the walkthroughs or something so that folks could browse at their leisure.

I talked to him last night and him and a buddy are gonna start doing these photos with ski resorts that are close to SLC. Real estate would work out well I will tell him about that idea.

He's from my old home town (well I'm from West Valley), I book marked the site, I want to spend some time there.

Does he take his own photos?

You know what he might be able to do is say for weddings or some type of special event he could take some photos and sell them to the the people, also he could turn them into a video to watch on tv via a DVD. If he could get with someone who does that kind of work, maybe they could incorporate that into one of the packages and another photographer could take the photos for him and he could do his work for them that way.

I didn't see a price list up, do you know if he has one yet, I'd like to see what he's charging too.

the web page has only been live for a couple of months. If you would like I can talk to him and get you guys connected, just send me a PM and I will see what I can do to arrange that.

Wow, those are very cool. I'm from Utah originally and spent a LOT of time in the Desert. My family had a highway construction company (we built bridges etc) and seemed to always win bids on the jobs in the middle of nowhere. Seeing some of those really took me back.

Thanks for sharing them. It seems like special event coverage could work for getting some sort of payment if the process allows instant captures.

Pretty cool stuff. I was thinking also stuff like Hotel's to put on websites for people to see rooms they are getting. Timeshares, ballparks/stadiums. Car dealerships to see inside of cards etc.

Next step would be to be able to move in them not just spin around 360 then you could do better virtual tours.
