Panorama is a simple application which displays QuicktimeVR 360-degree movies on the entire screen. The original impulse for Panorama was to simulate a screen saver, showing an image which appears to be static, but which changes slowly over time. The controls with Panorama allow the user to adjust the rotation amount and timing, so that the panorama can move almost imperceptibly or fairly quickly.
