The Virtual Space is an AS3 component that can be used to create virtual-tour type visualizations very easily. Simply specify 6 images to be used for top, bottom, left, right, front, and back. Then, position the camera, set the initial view, and specify interaction parameters.
Features Include:
- Animation settings for displaying space without user interaction
- Configurable mouse interaction
- Style properties for image backgrounds and containers
- Initial view settings
I haven’t seen too many effective attempts using Papervision3D in this manner. I think this component is going to supply the proper tools needed to create many creative virtual tours or walkthroughs. AFComponents really took this a step further by expanding the use of Papervision3D beyond its typical cool effects. Nice job to the guys over at AFComponents.
