    Google's new Tour Creator is designed to make it easy for anyone to create and interactive virtual tour, using either their own 360 images or images grabbed from Google Street View. You can read a VR Scout article describing the launch at https://vrscout.com/news/google-tour-creator or check out Tour Creator for yourself at https://vr.google.com/tourcreator

    Don't have a 360 camera? You can stitch a series of shots together with the popular open source app Hugin. Click here to download from Launchpad . Also on the Launchpad page you will find links to the home page for the app and more.
