The corporate headquarters of Arc/Leo Burnett (35 West Wacker in Chicago) had recently launched a new 21st floor space - which includes several shared partner rooms (Google, Facebook, Adobe, etc.) As a promotional tool, it was requested we build a mobile-focused 360 gallery, which would work with branded Google Cardboard headsets.
The original plan was a simple native app, but with progresses in WebVR, we felt we could leverage that for a solution which not only worked on mobile, but also on desktop VR headsets. We chose to use the A-Frame framework, using 360 equirectangular room captures, mixed in with native 3D elements.
