  • Before beginning the conversion process, ensure you have your fisheye images ready.

  • These images typically come from 360 cameras like the Ricoh Theta, Insta360, or GoPro Fusion.

  • Select the fisheye images from your device.

Step 4: Configure Conversion Settings

  • After uploading, you should see options for configuring your panorama conversion.
