React-360: [Feature Request] Different Image for Pano Stereo

[towfiqi]

Hi,

I am trying to display google cardbarod camera images, which stores left eye image and right eye image separately. Reading through the Pano docs, it looks like the stereo images are only supported if both the images are merged in a single image. Is it possible to use one image for left eye? and another for right eye?

Thanks

We can look into this, sure. I'm actively reworking some of our panoramic image support for 180-degree photos

Lovely! In the meantime, if you can suggest a workaround or hackish method, would appreciate it :smiley:

For now, your best bet is simply to combine them in to the same image, and use the existing stereo pano features. I actually think this is preferable to two photos, since it reduces the time spent loading images.

Does the Pano component support svg files? If it does, the server will need no cpu usage to merge the images to one. we can simply display the two images with svg.

Unfortunately svg won't work. It needs to be able to render to an offscreen tag, so the raw byte data can be extracted.

@andrewimm is it possible to implement this feature? One image for each eye will allow me to treat a condition where one eye is weaker than the other, and using different images combined with some exercises, the weak eye could recover the vision. Please let me know if this is possible, thank you for your time.
