GigaPan Goes to the Masters Tournament
Sports Illustrated and Golf.com are using the Global Connection Project’s GigaPan technology to bring the Masters Tournament – or at least the Augusta National golf course – just a little closer to readers and viewers. The Golf Plus special edition for the Masters, which Sports Illustrated sends to some of its subscribers, features a double gatefold panorama of Augusta National’s 18th and 9th greens produced by SI photographer Fred Vuich using the GigaPan system. And Golf.com features several interactiveGigaPans of the course, http://www.golf.com/golf/tours_news/article/0,28136,1725665,00.html.
