I'd like to share that this spherical imaging technology is absolutely not limited to just big tech companies like Google. There's this video game called the IKEA VR Experience which uses spherical imaging technology to create a virtual showroom. It's like a sandbox to shop for Ikea products and plan your living space.

Moreover, not only is this not exclusive to large tech companies but it is actually one of the major selling points for consumer VR. The modern day use case of VR in virtual tours, immersive (learning) experiences, training, or entertainment largely bank on spherical imaging technology to produce a cool 360 display that allows the user to almost insert themselves into those environments.
