In Japan, it is said that this year is the first year of the panorama moving picture,for smartphone is popularized and the line-up of output device like the various headmount is enlarged and also the circumstance of the internet infrastructure is improved.
We intend to make the various trial corresponding to such a new movement. How is the trend .now in Europe?
Mr. Sergey Semenov
Many are experimenting panorama technologies and there are some interesting development. However,we still have to solve various issues to improve panorama experience. Current issues include, slow internet speed, lack of panorama contents as well as interesting plans. Some tried Ladybug and Yellowbird for Sochi, but there should be improvement in video quality.
Nevertheless, many panorama enthusiasts are working hard to solve these issues. In Russia there will be 360 TV, which is dedicated to panorama contents.I hope that we will have continuous growth in the panorama market.

Many photographer and photoshooting engineer belong to Airpano. We suppose this is one reason why Airpano started to shoot from a high level hericopter from the early stage.
Its quality is very highly appreciated and we believe that it leads to 100,000 PV of your site.
Now, we may ask you to disclose the featuring points and future planning on panorama business of Airpano.
Mr. Sergey Semenov
One of the strength of airpano is technology. It has two state-of-the-art multirotor made by a Russian manufacturer. The latest model can fly up to 30mins and take panorama pics, including time lapse, in the air automatically. Airpano also has good post-production team. The stabilization and color correction process dramatically improve video quality, improving customer’s panorama experience.
Airpano is mainly taking pics from the air but last year, we shot pics from space (37km high) from a balloon. We hope we can make some space panorama contents in the future.

Yes. We want to tacle universe panorama project together by all means. This idea is planned also for the promotion of our "idoga".
This year, Airpano and idoga(Crossdevice) made a work partnership, in the field of panorama aerial photo-shooting.
also in the future,we intend to promote actively the contents-library of Airpano and to sell the license of contents. What do you expect in this alliance as Airpano?
Mr. Sergey Semenov
Airpano not only sells aerial panorama contents, but also provides technical solutions. Our services include consulting, post production (color correction and stabilization),.offline solution, and dome solution. We hope that Japanese customers will experience our services through the collaboration with idoga.
In 2015,the aerial photo-shooting will be started finally in collaboration with "idoga" in Japan. We think we can provide the new system which will enable the use of such contents-libraryin the field of sight-seeing,travel and welfare work at local governments.
