You can do that with ContextCapture, there is a free mobile app.

Meshes can be referenced or imported into ABD.

All - I found the same - to bad. They were easy to do and easy to use.

I think I go for a 3d-pdf and some Saved Views as I am still on ABD. Problem is it is easy to make more movment than panning.

David - do you have an example of a 'panoramic video'/spherical video from inside a room made with Microstation?

If i remember correctly quicktime could also open ivr files. support for it has ended though:

You might be able to find an installation for it but would be very cautious as there are some vulnerabilities in quicktime that were never fixed.

If you need to create a panorama would suggest looking into LumenRT where you can create a panoramic video that can be shared over youtube.

I tried downloading RealPlayer yesterday but was warned off the download by my web browser. Also I don't know if RealPlayer continues to support the format.

Do you remember what tool was used to view them?

Tried a few of what search found, but no one worked.

Yes! I remember now, haven't used that for a very long time.

It's been in Microstation as long as I can remember.

ABD>>UTILITIES>IMAGE>SAVE PANORAMA

Outputs a .jpg with snapshots from one point in 6 directions and the .ivr you open which stiches the snapshots so you can pan around in a room from the same point.

Easy and fast to do and easy to view for non-professionals. Gives a good perception of a more complicated room.

Hello Thomas,

I was searching over internet how we can open IVR files. I found this thread interesting. I hope this helps you too.

Hi Thomas,

Sorry I'm not familiar with an IVR file, and it's been a long time since I heard Realplayer mentioned :-)

Where are you creating the IVR?
