The development of the application involves two VR technologies. The first is the development of PKB e-brochure using Panorama VR technology. The research uses QuickTime Virtual Reality (QTVR), a photography-based VR that enables a user to explore panoramic spaces and examine objects by rotating them to any viewpoint using a computer mouse. The authoring software like Ulead COOL 360 was used to stitch the images, VR Worx 2.0 to link hotspots, Macromedia Flash 5.0 to create animations and Macromedia Director 8.0 to compile the movies, texts, images, sound and animations into a single file.
