## What a spherical panorama is for

Skybox AI creates an environment you can look around by turning the camera. The prompt describes the location, visual style, and atmosphere. A panorama is useful for comparing backgrounds before building the environment. If the project needs geometry, decide how you will obtain it. Different export formats retain different aspects of the original panorama.

## A greenhouse outside the set

Imagine the decoration with windows, behind which you can see the evening greenhouse. Describe a glass roof, rare tables with plants and soft diffused light. Keep the far plan calm so that it does not argue with the object in the frame. The first option is to load into the spherical viewer and turn the camera around. The table or frame of the window can be repeated at the junction, although the central frame looks solid.

Look up and down as well. When editing the environment around the scene, these areas are often only visible after the camera animation.

## What matters when exporting

The API documentation lists several formats, including panoramic images and HDRI. Export options depend on the selected model and subscription. If you use the panorama for lighting, render a simple test object with matte and reflective surfaces. Check whether the dynamic range is sufficient and whether the bright areas are in the right direction. For background use, inspect the level of detail at the intended output size. Check how the background looks at the widest camera angle.

## Suitable tasks

- Create an environment for pre-visualization

- Check the color and horizon of the virtual space

From task to first result

## Practical example

Task

Create an environment for pre-visualization

What to prepare

Description of the imaginary space for the background of a three-dimensional scene.

### Task brief or prompt

Create a panorama of an empty greenhouse with a uniform horizon and soft light. Look at the image all around.

### Expected result

Panorama for checking in the browser or engine.

### How to check the result

- Check the seam at the junction and the area at the poles.

- Match the format with the engine requirements.
