Yes, you are right; I’m talking about the 360-degree images. They are providing us with the option to see the various views of the same image which is not possible for a natural image.

Social Networking Platform has taken a step to bring them even closer to the people. As a part of their previous announcement last month, Facebook had started launching the 360-degree photos, a new supported format for uploading panoramas and images of a smartphone.

Users can click and drag on the photo to explore the complete environment, or can by only moving/tilting their smartphones.

Users can also view these images using Oculus Rift or a Gear VR headset. Facebook didn’t mention anything about the process of handling these incomplete panoramas. It is not clear whether it allows partial view or wrap around the images which are not apparently taken.
