Hi Jez
What settings did you use? The images appear to be a quite narrow field
of view for a 360 camera. Do you have examples of wide angle?
Cheers

I've been trying out the new Waylens camera on loan from OSMUK

The problem I had previously with Mapillary/OpenStreetCam was the
effort/time to get images geotagged and uploaded. This marvellous
piece of equipment has been adapted to automagically upload images to
OpenStreetCam when in range of your wifi connection. It starts
recording automatically and even pauses at traffic lights. The
downsides are having a mini-usb hanging down from the windscreen as it
doesn't stay charged very long, and the elapsed time it takes to do
uploads. Uploading overnight works pretty well. It _would_ upload
direct from the car if I parked outside the house, but i'd have to
leave the car unlocked so that it charges the camera.
I have used it to do some mapping, and I even enjoyed rewatching this
person pull out in front of me at Brighton Station without looking or
signaling http://www.openstreetcam.com/details/1304821/283/track-info
I am unsure what the benefits are of using OpenStreetCam over
Mapillary, or even why do it at all. I just wanted to try the
equipment out.
My loan period ends at the beginning of December so you could be the
next person to have a go if you want...details on
