QTVR is the abbreviation of QuickTime Virtual Reality, an image format developed by Apple Inc. and it's the extension of QuickTime technology. As a primary virtual reality technology based on static image processing, VR Panorama and objects are two core concepts in VR movies.

Objects are captured from many viewpoints in toward the same central viewpoint, thereby generating a full range of image information of an object. In contrast to objects, VR Panorama is a point of view of space in 360-degree view of the surrounding environment, and to obtain the distance of visual effects, users can switch lines of sight freely in the range of 360 degrees of panoramic image, and they also can change the angle in a line of sight.
