You can buy it on www.theVRkit.com to produce high resolution full 360 panoramas (with floors and ceilings) to create 360 virtual tours. Built-in ultra wide lenses are indeed wide, but they only capture 2/3 of the vertical field of view and leave blind spots on top/bottom. Just clip the lens and make a full turn. Multiple images are taken, and stitched instantly on your phone, no internet connection needed. The result is amazing. theVRkit fisheye lens was specially selected for its field of view, clarity and sharpness. We have tested nearly all the lenses of the market, our lens will give you the best output. An optional electronic rotator allows for perfect captures. You can get professional quality VR images at the press of a button. Share the result on Facebook 360 or view it in VR Cardboard mode.

Capture an entire property — every floor, every room — as a single interactive 360° walkthrough. Share it with one iCloud link: the recipient opens it right inside Look on their iPhone or iPad. Look is an app for building and viewing 360° virtual tours and multi-tour Projects on iPhone and iPad. Turn ordinary panoramic photos into an immersive walkthrough with a floorplan, viewpoints, and routes. Bundle several tours into a single Project — floors of a house, buildings of an estate, or connected rooms of an apartment — and present the property as one unified 3D space. PROJECTS Multi-tour structure for larger properties. Combine several tours into a single Project and wire up transitions between them directly inside the 3D walkthrough — no jumping back to a list. One link opens the whole listing: ground floor, upper floor, attic, garage. Built for interior design of complex properties, real-estate showcases, and architectural portfolios. iCLOUD SHARING Any tour or Project goes out as a single iCloud link. The recipient opens the walkthrough natively inside Look on their iPhone or iPad — not a web viewer. Two access modes: a public link (anyone who has it can view) or invited access for specific users. Revoke access in a single tap whenever you need to. Your panoramas and floorplans live in your own iCloud — no third-party server sitting between you and your recipient, no monthly hosting bill for keeping your work online.
